I think it is fair to add the 20-26 million Soviets who died fighting Hitler's war. Not to mention the people Hitler had put to death and the casualties of other nations. Thing is, it is hard to determine exactly how many people Stalin had killed...

[Espozito]

Hitler officially declared death to all non-german nations. Stalin was unofficially making other nations hate and sometimes fight each other plus mass murdered many millions of his own people cause he was a freaking paranoic.

ADDING: I think both of these beings (I don't count'em for humans) shouldn't have born.

"Hitler officially declared death to all non-german nations." That is a big statement, you'll need to elaborate on it further.

Honestly I don't place the blame on either of them. One man dosn't hold power. The community around him gives him power to use. Sure they both did some awful shit with the power given them by their countries but that is a moral failure on everyone in that situation. Not just on the leader.

All too often inaction is more evil than any action ever could be. Hundreds of thousands of people made this possible in both situations. At least those two morally void psychopaths own their evil. Refer to all the Nazi leaders bullshit excuses when they were tried for war crimes down the road. If anything I have less respect for the people that rode this train to get rich off the deaths of millions than the ones who were perpetuating that slaughter. *Looks at IBM*

A commander is responsible for the all the actions performed under his command. Maybe they did not swing the axe, but neither did they stop it.

I hate stalin more. I think Stalin is worse.

Hitler at least had some good point economic wise.

Stalin is only good for itself.

At least they both get what they deserved, they are not that far from each other in a sense huh.

Apo couldn't agree with this more. It's the one's that gave power to and later obeyed the acts.

stalin did kill more in my opinion, but because of the brutality of the camps and the ways hitler decided to execute, im going to say hitler was worse. i would rather be executed by gunshot rather than gassed or burned.

A little off topic but is Hitler's fucked up research still around?
