Who was worse Hitler or Stalin?

Postby Murray land » Mon Aug 21, 2017 2:57 pm

Watching all the whiny lefty and righties made me think. In their own way each side is almost entirely wrong both the skinheads and antifa sjws none of these groups or productive or helping improve society. Then I thought you know they're just like? Every major figure of their political ideologies. So with that being said. Which brutal dictator was worse. The criteria is how they were professionally, personally and ethic/morally. The men examined are Adolf Hitler and Joseph Stalin

Birds of a feather. I can't make that choice, whatever option I'd click would be letting the other one off the hook too easily.

Kind of like asking which way to die is worse, burning alive or being eaten alive by a pack of dogs.

They both outdid each other on a number of horrifying levels, so I'm not really comfortable picking which one was worse.

Initial gut reaction leans towards Stalin due to the higher body count.

How d'you figure? Way I see it, any aggressive moves by either side would result in an economic death spiral for both.

Genocide is a human pastime, not only a white one. It would seem to be obvious, but whatever.

It's more that the vast majority of the deaths Mao caused were genuine screw-ups and the Mao was just really dumb when it came to running an economy (such as earning the wrath of the sparrow god).

Anyway, not talking to Vass in particular, but to the thread generally, we've had this thread a million times, there's a lot of historical debate on how many Stalin killed vs just fucked up, and Hitler did actually kill way over what he's usually given in these things, because people don't want to count battlefield deaths despite the fact that Hitler was completely responsible for the war.

If we go purely by bodycount I'd say Stalin.

Uncle Joe - he smokes a pipe - and wears a taxi driver's hat.
Dearly as I love Uncle Joe, he is worse than Hitler.
Hitler took the evil ideology Naziism and achieved it.
Stalin took the good ideology of Liberty, Equality, Fraternity then he twisted and betrayed that ideology.
I guess Mao sincerely tried to enforce LQF, but he was incompetent. I haven't studied Mao enough to be certain.

Stalin had the better facial hair but also a much higher body count.
"The less one knows about the Civil War the more likely one is to think the North fought to free the slaves."
"As hours worked by an individual approaches zero, the probability of engagement in political activism approaches one."
"As an online discussion grows longer, the probability of the mention of inter-sectional group identities approaches one."

Hitler and Stalin walked into a BAR.

And now they're playing cards in hell.

I think you can figure out my opinion of both from that statement.

If you can't, they both where pretty much equally shitty.
Most of the time I have no idea what the hell I'm doing or talking about.

”Many forms of government have been tried and will be tried in this world of sin and woe.
No one pretends that democracy is perfect or all wise. Indeed, it has been said that democracy is
the worst form of government, except for all the others that have been tried from time to time." -
Winston Churchill, 1947.

"Rifles, muskets, long-bows and hand-grenades are inherently democratic weapons. A complex weapon makes the strong stronger, while a simple weapon – so long as there is no answer to it – gives claws to the weak.” - George Orwell

Like I said earlier, only if you don't count the majority of people that he killed.

The fixation on the Holocaust is crazy, because Hitler killed far more people outside of the Holocaust than in it.
