::::::You are simply barking up the wrong tree, attempting to demonize communists or the Communist Party as responsible for the Holocaust to meet contemporary American anti-Socialist and anti-Communist sentiment. That is historical revisionism and Holocaust revisionism. And some might even say Holocaust denial.  You are beginning with a conclusion and trying to twist historical facts to fit your contemporary view.

:::::::Your Communist/Nazi revisionism won't work on me, pal. To reiterate (and slightly expand) for the zillionth time: the three million rank-and-file Nazis in the SA continued the NSDAP ranks, even if not in the exact SA hierarchy. The Night of the Long Knives was a power struggle within the Nazi leadership that purged the SA leaders, not three million members of the rank-and-file.
