Who is Hitler worse than Stalin?

Note: A lot of opinions. Some are below. It depends on how you define evil.Stalin:I would say Stalin as he was pure evil. Hitler was evil do not get me wrong, but Stalin hated everyone. Hitler had problems with the Jews and a few others, but Stalin persecuted his own people and others. There are more statistics on Hitler than Stalin. That is why more people might say Hitler for they do not know much about Stalin. Hitler is a household name, Stalin is usually not.Hitler:I would actually say Hitler was the more evil of the two. Like the poster above said, Stalin hated everyone, but Hitler targeted, isolated, and slaughtered one group of people. At least Stalin didn't discriminate.Hitler:Hitler plunged Europe into war as well as committing appalling atrocities. (Stalin did not unleash a major war). Hitler has become the #1 20th century icon (or symbol) of evil.Stalin:Although Stalin didn't cause a war he still sided with Hitler in the war. On top of that Stalin killed everyone even in his own army he had groups that where called blocks behind his soilders. They were ordered to shoot any troop giving up ground no matter what. Plus Stalin did start a war by him self the cold war!!!Hitler:There is all this talk about Stalin killed off his own fellow Russians - In actual fact he was betrayed by a fair number of his own fellow men who worked secretly for Hitler. When Stalin found this out, brutally and literally, lined those who betrayed them and had them shot. Everything he did was for a reason and people are too quick to jump to conclusions without fact. In all honesty, he can be seen as one of the greatest leaders of our time who took an undeveloped country and turned it into the greatest industrial country with one of the most powerful military forces to this very day.Stalin:Both Stalin and Hitler are both considered some of the worst leaders. Both instituted totalitarian governments and they both killed lots of people. Stalin would kill people, and then expunge them from all records, like in pictures. Hitler, at the end of the war, gassed millions of people. However, Stalin's communist policy also led to major shortages in food and caused tens of millions of people to starve to death. So, between Hitler and Stalin - they were both terrible leaders, I would have to say Stalin. Yes, Hitler was bad, but Stalin was worse! Wrap up:One can debate motive and intentions all day, but if murder is the greatest evil, then when the debate is said and done, Hitler is usually ascribed with about 15 million murders and Stalin with tens and tens of millions of murders.

Why did Stalin want Britain and the US to open a secrond front?

Stalin needed the Allies to divert German attention from the Eastern Front. The Russian war effort was massive in terms of people who were involved, many were working as slave labour for the Germans, or indeed were inducted into the German military, whether they liked it or not. Many had been captured as a result of the Barbarossa Blitzkrieg. Nonetheless the Allies were involved in North Africa & Italy while all this was going on, but Stalin, despite the supples sent to Murmansk at great cost by the Allies, needed more. I think, in hindsight admittedly, that Churchills' circumspection was more than justified.

Why did the proletariat believe in Stalin?

They believed in Lenin more, though Stalin was his successor. They believed in Stalin because Stalin promised the proletariats equality.Equality was important to them because under the rule of Tsar, they were living under poverty. So equality was the better alternativeEven though Stalin promised them equality, he broke his promise by creating a class disparity, by only benefiting the communist party.The proletariat did not believe in Stalin, because Stalin never promised them anything. Lenin had to make promises in order to get the Russian people to back him and his Bolsheviks against the Provisional Government. Stalin was just in the right place at the right time and with sufficient ruthlessness to move into a position of power after Lenin died whether the people liked it or not.
