Conceptually, I have a problem with the comparison. But if we compared body count from inception & danger posed in 21st C, Islam is worse.

I don't know why you have a problem comparing one fascist ideology to another. Is it because one has a deity and the other doesn't?

It's not that. I guess I am a bit of a stickler for precision. There are flaws in the comparison, although I do agree both are fascist.

Will you share the flaws you see in making this comparison? It's to show similarities and differences. Obviously they're not identical.

And to offer a concession, I do admit there are parallels in some key ideological areas, yet there are also major flaws in the comparison.

A: How many Nazis cherry-pick a version of Nazism to promote racial equality? B: How many Muslims cherry-pick a peaceful version of Islam?

Now you're comparing humans, not ideologies

No, I am comparing the disparate effects/outcomes of the 2 ideologies on adherents to demonstrate flaw in comparison of 2 ideologies.

So you never compare two things that have potentially different outcomes? Isn't that the whole point of making a comparison?

You can compare them, sure. Does the existence of a few (key) parallels produce an equivalence, is probably the question I'd ask.

None of us claimed they were equivalent.
