    I know this sarcastic, but conflict between various communist parties with slightly different views have been quite common in history

      Pretty big difference though, the Nazis specifically targeted “Judeo-bolshevism” and were formed specifically to combat rising Communist sympathies and organization.

      Conflicts between Communist orgs usually arose from incompatible differences in principle, such as whether or not to support such and such Socialist org, and usually the fighting isn’t based on extermination like it was in Nazi Germany with the Night of Long Knives.
