    Stalin for example was a mass murderer just like Hitler. So why would anybody like him?

    Here is a mainstream Jewish holocaust survivor saying equating the communists and fascists is holocaust trivialization.

    You have compared communists and fascists, thus trivializing the Holocaust.

    Are you referring to famines caused by the Kulaks destroying grain exacerbating a natural famine cycle, something that was somewhat common before the modern era. If you are, would you also say that every death caused by starvation due to poverty in capitalist countries should count towards the leader’s “death count”?

      This isn’t about communism and fascism. It’s about two asholes who killed millions. And I never trivialize the holocaust. I am just saying that Stalin killed a lot of people too. And more than just a few thousand. 20 million is a lot of dead people. So mb not as bad as Hitler but still realy not a great person. So the comparison to Hitler still stands.
