As for the Nazi example I already grilled wooter for this. The Nazis did not believe in subjective morality . They believed what they were doing was objectively right . ISIS isn't running around saying "In the Name of our favorite flavor of Soda the heathens must die." Even the Soviets argued that objective morality stemmed from the inevitability of history. There defense has reached cartoonish levels absurdity.
What in the hell is that even supposed to mean?????
They believed that the history of civilization always objectively goes in a certain pattern. And that communism was a process of that pattern. (Using wacky pseudohistory to justify it) . And that they were carrying out said pattern and that said pattern was moral . Thus the atrocities carried out by the soviets were just them because it fulfilled the pattern .
