It's hard to argue that Stalin killed 6 million when scholars disagree on degree of his culpability and intentionality when it comes to the post Russia Civil War restructuring of the empire. But there's little question about Hitler's culpability and intentionality when he invaded Slavic lands for comquest, sent death squads to shower villagers with bullets and collect them for drath camps, all while touting racial supremacy of the German over the Slav. People like to count these things like they're the same, which dictator has a "high score" in killing people.
