Re: Anne Frank vs. Adolf Hitler: Who was the worse person?
No, it was only six million. If you want 20 million reasons to hate someone, look at Stalin.
Why doesn't anyone vilify Stalin like they do Hitler?
It couldn't be because he was our ALLY at the time, and it would be awfully uncomfortable explaining to voters why we allied ourselves with someone who, from a humanist standpoint, was actually THREE AND HALF TIMES WORSE than Hitler?
Or what about Mao? Check Wikipedia: "his rule from 1949 to 1976 is believed to have caused the deaths of 40 to 70 million people."
Hitler was a noob compared to him. But Hitler is the "worst murderer in the history of mankind" according to most people (even if they cannot prove that Hitler himself ever killed one single person). Mao is revered like a god in parts of China. No one says boo about this, because where would we get all the cheap crap and big screen TVs that are such a "necessity" for modern living.
