No, they were Leninists, Stalinists, Maoists.
Correct, and that's an important distinction. Solzhenitsyn was at
pains to point out that it wasn't just Stalin who made that dreadful
Soviet system possible. It was the Party and everyone else who went
along with it - and said nothing.
He didn't feel the need to point that Hitler had similar popular support
(mostly from people who think like Cursitor Doom).
Hitler certainly managed to score mega-deaths, though John Larkin didn't feel the need to add him to his list.
Trump does has quite a lot in common with Hitler. The emphasis he puts on the size of his rallies is a bit of a give-away.
