Hitler vs. Stalin
Hitler or Stalin: Who Killed More?
Interesting article, but it's not quite the right question. The better question is the toll of Fascism vs. Communism. Add Mao's count and Communism wins the competition by a good margin. But even that's not quite right, since both Nazism and Communism were different forms of the same thing, centrally-administered, totalitarian Socialism. So the true number of deaths is the grand total, not A vs. B. That the Left's boogeyman would be Capitalism says as much about the Left as anyone should need to know.
