Did communists or non communists suffer more casualties in Cold War?

During the Cold War, both communists and non-communists suffered significant casualties, but the impact varied by region and conflict. In proxy wars, such as the Vietnam War, communist forces often faced heavy losses, but non-communist forces, including U.S. troops and their allies, also experienced substantial casualties. Overall, the nature of each conflict, the strategies employed, and the geopolitical context influenced the casualty figures, making it difficult to definitively state which side suffered more. However, many estimates suggest that communist forces, particularly in conflicts like the Korean and Vietnam Wars, suffered higher overall casualties.
