Why is Hitler remember as the ultimate evil when Josef Stalin, who existed in the same time period, was responsible for millions more innocent deaths? Why does mainstream media take the spotlight away from this Soviet murderer?
also
Why does the Holodomor genocide have such a varying death toll? It ranges anywhere from 2.5 to 10 million people

Nazi ideology and the threat Hitler posed were far more blatant than Stalinized Soviet communism. Today people like to downplay Hitler but that regime was freakishly genocidal in principle whereas early Soviet communism was more selective purging.

But anyone with a brain understands how evil and destructive the early Soviet and Chinese communists were.

Because if you say Stalin (and the communists as a whole) are bad, you automatically get called a nazi, a fascist and an anti-semite.

You can criticize both, you know.

But the reason that Hitler gets much more attention is because in American culture he's pretty much the villain of WW2. Also the holocaust has been given a lot more attention and is more "memorable" than political purges and bad agricultural policies.

Genocide, as the term is mostly used, requires intentionality. The Soviets didn't want the Ukrainians to be exterminated, they didn't even want them to starve, and even if they did: It wouldn't be on the same level as the industrialized mass exterminations we had seen in the Holocaust.

>Why is Hitler remember as the ultimate evil when Josef Stalin, who existed in the same time period, was responsible for millions more innocent deaths

the answer lies in the question.

stalin murdering monsterous bastard that he was didnt kill as many as hitler and certainly not in such a relatively brief spree as Hitler.

also Stalins score was the total he had killed (and often includes death through incompetence as well as intent) and covers a period up until he died of natural causes.

Hitlers total is the total he managed before he was stopped and would have been significantly higher if he hadnt been defeated, Hitler killed more than stalin, in a shorter time and would have killed many more if outside interference hadnt prevented him from doing so

>Why does mainstream media take the spotlight away from this Soviet murderer?
It doesn't.
Communist symbolism is even banned in some Eastern European countries along with the Swastika. Stalin is widely remembered in history as a mass murderer and the Holodomor is officially recognized as a genocide in over 20 countries.

I don't know what shithole backwater you live in but I was taught all about the unsavory aspects of his rule as part of my IGCSE education.

Take your retarded /pol/tard victimization back there.
>>
>>1764342
They were both horrible, but Stalin was not "responsible for millions more innocent deaths". I don't know where people get this stuff. The most credible estimates for Stalin's death counts are about 20 million. Hitler killed more than that. It isn't just 6 million Jews, but
>an 11 million total for the Holocaust
>plus 3 million Soviet POWs deliberately starved
>plus however many millions of civilians deliberately killed by Germans in war crimes (thousands of villages of destroyed across the East, shooting 100 civilians for every German soldier killed by partisans in Yugoslavia)
>plus millions killed by famine in Eastern Europe, Greece, and the Netherlands because of German policies of pillaging the occupied areas for food to keep German living standards up
>plus you could probably count every death, military or civilian, in the European theatre of WWII given Hitler was pretty clearly at fault for that (inb4 /pol/ he dindu nuffin)
>and he would have killed many many more had won the war (see Generalplan Ost, which would have killed at least 20 million Slavs)

But beyond that, Hitler's crimes are more well-known because:
>they're better documented (this is why getting exact death totals for Stalin is harder)
>the intentions are clearer (big part of Stalin's count comes from famines which may or may not have been intentional)
>we generally see killing people for something they can't control (like ethnicity) as worse than killing them for something they can (like being a political dissident)
>for Stalin, killing was just a means to an end: industrializing, or maintaining his own power. For Hitler exterminating racial inferiors was an end in and of itself. If that is actual worse, depends on your moral perspective, but it does make it more shocking for people

>>1764342
Joseph Stalin killed far fewer people than Hitler when you consider that Hitler was responsible for the second world war. That number of 6 million Jews was only a small fraction of the total Nazi bodycount.

Stalin's own bodycount is now believed to have been about 3 million executions, assassinations, and deaths in imprisonment due to abuse, neglect, or natural causes. These numbers include non-political prisoners, such as German POWs and criminals. Importantly, this is over the course of nearly 30 years. Hitler's killings lasted just over 10 years.

If you include the Ukrainian famine, which was caused or exacerbated by USSR policy, Stalin's bodycount rises to between 9 million and 20 million.
>>
>>1765804
the longer this thread goes on the lower that faggot's bodycount gets
>>
Because he was an almost pure pragmatist who wouldn't waste resources on something as petty as killing people just for being Jews.

His motivation was survival. It was either him or Trotsky. It was either him or potential political enemies in the gulags, even if only 1/100 were an actual threat he was going to sweep up all 100 to make sure he got him. He either conducted the purge and orchestrated famine in the Ukraine or he would lose his grip on power, all his family would be killed, he would be killed and possibly tortured, etcetera...

That's retarded, but I really doubt its representative. In the U.S., or at least based on my personal experience in it, Stalin is seen as one of the most evil and villainous figures you could possibly name behind only Hitler and Satan. His purges and totalitarianism are the main (and for many, the only) things that are really know and remembered about him. Maybe things differ in Europe or college campuses in the U.S., but I have a hard time imagining that pro-Stalin sentiment is common really anywhere in the West.

You haven't brough up valid points. You just really love ad hominem.

Stalin's industrialization of Russia was one of the greatest disasters in hisory, abd Russia would have sank without commissions of trains by the U.S. during WW2. They had to conquer Eastern Europe to combat their staggering poverty, since Stalin had stripped Russia of its economic backbone. Their fall proved the fallibility of putting war before economy in a post-imperial Era.

Because Stalin was on the winning side

Even then, it's more so because the lesson people are taught about WWII is that Fascism is bad. Communism being bad is the lesson to take from the Cold War. There's no need to cram why both methods are bad into one war.

They put plenty of spotlight on him. Animal Farm and 1984 which are required reading in many US schools are a big fuck you to Stalin. All my teachers no matter their politics all agreed that Stalin was a mass murdering tyrant.

One of the big differences between Stalin and Hitler is the latter is more interesting and memorable as a person. When it comes to the style and oratory Hitler edges out Stalin. Another factor that keeps Hitler in the public eye is neo nazi groups. It is extremely rare to meet Stalinists as the left (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-Stalinist_left) came down hard against them. Stalin is hated by most of the far left while Hitler is mostly embraced (or greeted with ambivalence) by the far right.

It's much easier to categorize the number of Holocaust vs Holodomor victims. Holocaust deaths were caused by direct means within concentrated facilities, Holodomor was more indirect and effected a wide range of phenomenon across an entire country.

Moreover, the Soviets did not keep as neat of records about the Holodomor as the Germans did with regards to the Holocaust. In fact Ukraine Party Chief Stanislav Kosior reduced the number of dead across the country in general in INTERNAL Central Committee reports in order to maintain the illusion that industrialization and collectivization was going smoothly. These revisions was later used as evidence that Koisor was a party traitor when he was executed by Stalin during the purges.

Famine and "natural"-means genocides general are much harder to contribute reliable numbers to than violent genocides. You get similar wildly different figures with the Great Leap Forward, Belgian Congo, and Bengal famine.

But of course let this logic be lost on you and cry about Jews/JIDF and a grand conspiracy.
>>
>>1767592
To add, Tim Snyder's Bloodlands (which is both anti-nazi and anti-bolshevik) determines Holocaust deaths at around 5.3 and 6.8 million and Holodomor deaths as between 1.8 and 3.5 million.
