"Disagreeing" with someone doesn't make the other person "the worst person in history". Not by a long shot. And for the love of Christ; can you stop using, or rather abusing, that smilie? It's making me want to punch a kitten - and i love kitties.

[QUOTE="rlake"][QUOTE="xTheExploited"] Whether or not that was a genocide is debatable. Like I've said many deaths attributed to Stalin and the USSR were result of a problem with industrialisation and collectivisation. The Holocaust is not debatable about whether it was intentional or not, and the holocaust was caused by a man with a personal disliking for a race of people.xTheExploited
No, it is not debatable. Stalin forced a famine that killed millions of Ukrainians. It is the very definition of a genocide. Further, why are you so willing to give Stalin - an incontrovertible monster - the benefit of the doubt? Last, the very fact that you - like so many others - are willing to rationalize his actions by citing the difficulties of colonial expansion is precisely WHY Stalin is worse than Hitler

I make these decisions based on the fact that I have been studying Russian history for the last 3 years and I am able to comprehend what happened and what did not happen. Just because a certain number of people died under a regime, does not mean that the regime was the cause of these deaths. From my studying of Russian history I have been taught to take both sides of for and against Stalin and I have discovered that there is a lot for the idea that not all deaths were caused by him. If you have ever studied the 5 year plans under Stalin then you would know that misunderstanding of rapid industrial and agricultural growth are large factors that helped amount to the number of people who died under Stalin, not simply his hatred for these people. Unlike Hitler whose main reason for killing millions of people is because he didn't like them. I have studied Germany and sorry to say, there is not really anything that you can give to Hitler in giving him the benefit of the doubt for the Holocaust. Studying Russian history in depth helps you understand Russian means for expansion into Europe. There are many things that make you think "if he did want to expand why did he give back that or this or whatever" and many things that make you think "oh he definitely wanted to expand into Europe to gain more power", this is one of the curses of Russian secrecy during the the time of the Soviet Union. However after studying German history as well its pretty hard to take Hitlers side in a who wasn't the worst discussion when the only reasons that he wanted to expand were made clear that they were living space for Germans, establishment of the aryan race and disgust for all other peoples. This is why I find Hitler to be a much worse individual compared to not only Stalin but any other person in history that I know enough about.

Stalin was a brutal vicious nasty SOB long before he became leader. In fact, it was his brutality that allowed him to become leader, predominantly by killing anyone who opposed him. The guy essentially murdered people for a living prior to becoming the leader. Think about that.

The problem with your entire argument is that you aren't actually discussing these people as individuals. Rather, you are debating with yourself based on vague reviews of general outcomes across whole nations....which is pointless.

Make no mistake, both Hitler and Stalin are equally horrible individuals. As is your average serial killer. Or the whack jobs conducting experiments on prisoners of war. Or the inquisitors burning witches. There is no difference between any of these people as individuals. The only differences are mere circumstances they found themselves in....leader of a country, a sect, a military unit, or simply a one man band psycho. They are all equally depraved.

In the past century, I would agree. But in history? Nah, I am sure there have been people responsible for much more death and destruction.

No. He caused the war with the most casulties in all of mankind.

That may not even be it. Believe it or not...God, in the Abrahamic sense, has killed more people than Satan ever could dream of. Not saying God is evil, but if we are talking kill count here. God is winning. Remember the story of Noah...?

No Stalin did not kill people to get to become leader. He manipulated people to get to the top. One minute he was sided with one person and then another he is turning the whole party against them. What are you thinking of is the purges. Stalin killed and exiled anyone who posed a thread to his control over the party after he had become the leader. No one knew how terrible this man was until after he took control and by then it was already too late. Before Lenin died, Stalin had hardly any control over the party. To judge anyone as the worst person in history you must REVIEW how they acted. He put forward an argument and I put forward reasons for why someone would think that way, I've already made my judgement on who is the worst person in history I was simply showing him why some people think the way they think. What I wrote about there is not my complete judgement of Hitler and Stalin simply a very brief summary of some of their actions.

[QUOTE="Setsa"][QUOTE="loft8000"]

so that doesnt outweigh the bad that religon has done, religion tears people apart, take for example this thread many people have said hitler however if there was no such thing as religion there would be no jews, and look at what the christians did to people over the years, killed off a lot of heathens and pretty much absorbed paganism into their religion and destroying a culture, also christians burnt many of their own people at the stake for "being a witch",. these are very few examples of what religion has done to civilisation.

loft8000

... you do realize that if religion never existed, people would merely find other reasons to kill each other over?

yes, its a part of human nature, however nothing could match the damage religion has done to society.

What are you talking about? I am no religious man but that is completely false. Money and Politics have killed and tortured far more people than religion. Religion was/is sometimes used to justify a war, but even then it was never the biggest cause. For the sake of argument we'll just include random wars in no particular order:

Hundred Years' War, War of 1812, Russian Civil War, American Civil War, Boar Wars, Opium Wars, The Mongol Conquests, WWI, WWII, Sino-Japanese War, Russo-Japanese War, American-Vietnamese War, Sino-Vietnamese War, Korean War, Iran-Iraq War, Operation Desert Storm, Operation Iraqi Freedom, The Chechen War, etc.

This list will go ON AND ON. All of these were caused by economics or political situations. Just the ones I have mentioned combined will outweigh the deaths caused by all the religious conflicts combined.

I totally agree. It seems to some people that having a different political alignment than their own is just as bad as killing 6 million Jews, still trying to understand the justification for that opinion.

Good point.... But Satan has evil purposes. God doesn't.

Satan is not evil in the common sense we use. Satan believes in free will at its most extreme. He feels people should be able to do what they want when they want with no repercussions. This is opposite of God's belief that a man/woman's life belong to God and that man/woman should show reverence and obedience to God and his laws.Everything the devil does is meant strictly to break people from doing what God wants them to do. Not necessarily going out and killing everyone there is. A demon is simply a diety that supports Lucifer's beliefs while and angel is one that stands by God. Sin (Evil) is just anything God does not condone, at least in a religious sense - it does not necessarily mean "Go kill, rape, and pillage."

No, no, no, no, no!!!! I refuse to accept that Darth Vader killed Obi Wan after Obi Wan completely owned him when Vader was in his prime. Obi Wan simply let himself die before he was hit, notice that Vader did not actually hit anything, just a cloak. Obi Wan already became the force before he was touched by Vader. :P

Satan just said that he believes in free will, to get people on his side. Satan is just greedy, and wants God's powers.

Yeah, but he killed Obi-Wan. I never got over that. History will judge him harshly.

No, no, no, no, no!!!! I refuse to accept that Darth Vader killed Obi Wan after Obi Wan completely owned him when Vader was in his prime. Obi Wan simply let himself die before he was hit, notice that Vader did not actually hit anything, just a cloak. Obi Wan already became the force before he was touched by Vader. :P

The fact that Vader even tried to kill Obi-Wan makes my blood boil with the dark side :x

[QUOTE="clayron"][QUOTE="supergamer514"] Good point.... But Satan has evil purposes. God doesn't.supergamer514
Satan is not evil in the common sense we use. Satan believes in free will at its most extreme. He feels people should be able to do what they want when they want with no repercussions. This is opposite of God's belief that a man/woman's life belong to God and that man/woman should show reverence and obedience to God and his laws.Everything the devil does is meant strictly to break people from doing what God wants them to do. Not necessarily going out and killing everyone there is. A demon is simply a diety that supports Lucifer's beliefs while and angel is one that stands by God. Sin (Evil) is just anything God does not condone, at least in a religious sense - it does not necessarily mean "Go kill, rape, and pillage."

Satan just said that he believes in free will, to get people on his side. Satan is just greedy, and wants God's powers.

Satan knows that he could never achieve the level of power God has. God created Satan. Satan is incapable of creation. The whole thing between God and Satan is synonymous, on a very weird level, to Batman and The Joker. Both detest each other, but one can not kill the other for various reasons. God, for one, can not die, so no luck there. Instead, the devil challenged God's ability to rule, or something like that, basically believing that people will turn from God and essentially do whatever the hell they wish without fear of God's wrath. Synonymous with The Joker believing that he can break all of Gotham City by stiring up a bit of Chaos. God cannot simply kill the devil because it would make him seem as though he does not have complete control. So what does he do? He allows Satan to do his Satan thing, with restrictions, on Earth to prove to him that no matter what people will always hold God in high regard and keep some righteous standard established by God, himself. Sort of like Batman, he only does just enough to show that he is there but he never crosses a certain line to show that no matter what people will always want to do the right thing no matter how much crazy they are surrounded by. Even though the Joker is always getting loose and causing trouble. Make sense? Probably not, but it was the best I could do.

[QUOTE="SUD123456"]

Stalin was a brutal vicious nasty SOB long before he became leader. In fact, it was his brutality that allowed him to become leader, predominantly by killing anyone who opposed him. The guy essentially murdered people for a living prior to becoming the leader. Think about that.

The problem with your entire argument is that you aren't actually discussing these people as individuals. Rather, you are debating with yourself based on vague reviews of general outcomes across whole nations....which is pointless.

Make no mistake, both Hitler and Stalin are equally horrible individuals. As is your average serial killer. Or the whack jobs conducting experiments on prisoners of war. Or the inquisitors burning witches. There is no difference between any of these people as individuals. The only differences are mere circumstances they found themselves in....leader of a country, a sect, a military unit, or simply a one man band psycho. They are all equally depraved.

xTheExploited

No Stalin did not kill people to get to become leader. He manipulated people to get to the top. One minute he was sided with one person and then another he is turning the whole party against them. What are you thinking of is the purges. Stalin killed and exiled anyone who posed a thread to his control over the party after he had become the leader. No one knew how terrible this man was until after he took control and by then it was already too late. Before Lenin died, Stalin had hardly any control over the party. To judge anyone as the worst person in history you must REVIEW how they acted. He put forward an argument and I put forward reasons for why someone would think that way, I've already made my judgement on who is the worst person in history I was simply showing him why some people think the way they think. What I wrote about there is not my complete judgement of Hitler and Stalin simply a very brief summary of some of their actions.

Of course he did. He started in the anti-czarist underground as a street thug. He later graduated to extortion. Then to bank robbery. Then to murder. He had to leave the party for a short time around 1907?1908? after he killed 40 people in a bank robbery. He kidnapped and murdered hundreds of czarist supporters as the main means of supporting himself and his branch of the gang for years. He personally liked pummelling people with his fists. He adopted the name Stalin and the persona of the Man of Steel to back up his particularly brutish ways. All of this occurred well before he was anything more than a mid-level lieutenant in the cause. In many other places/times he would have been nothing more than a violent gang member.

If you are interested in the subject you need to read: Hitler & Stalin - Parallel Lives written by the famous and very well respected historian Alan Bullock. The stuff you are exposed to in typical university ****s on this subject is insufficient. I ought to know as I have both undegraduate and graduate degrees in the subject and took Soviet Studies 25 years ago, when there really were Soviets :P

Plus, he invented the most evil way of torture... I can't talk about it... I can't find a pic of it, either... It's very gruesome, though.
