I consider them both pretty evil. Consider this, Stalin's mass killings were mostly before WW II (100,000 a year), and mostly from his purges and 'collectivization in early 30's with the latest estimate of around 20-30 million dead. His genocide wasn't a full time occupation to his death, unlike Hitler, but that's where the comparison stops.
When comparing the two, both were evil, both put people in concentration camps, both committed genocide, both were dictators, both...well you get the picture.
The one factor Hitler had over Stalin tho, Hitler was insane. Stalin was just angry and distrustful.
Other things to consider,Stalin killed more people, Hitler started WW II, Hitler killed the Jews and some people in his nation, but he started the war that resulted in many troops dying on both sides. Hitler may be considered the greater of both evils; tho Stalin killed more people it is said, Hitler's action ensured that those loses were as high as possible.
It is my conclusion that Hitler may be the 'evil-er" of them all, but comparing the them is ludicrous, now that i think about it, so just forget about it!

He sure was, but that was kept quiet because he was part of the allied powers during world war II. Everyone says that Hitler was horrible for having 11 million killed, which i will not argue that point. But let me throw this fact at you... Stalin had 30 million of his own people killed for various reasons...now who looks worse?

both stalin and hitler were psychotic, but stalin was extremely paranoid he would kill anyone he suspected to betray him. stalin killed 10 millions of his people while hitler killed 6 million people including the jews, homosexuals, disabled people, and others. i'd say stalin.

stalin was the single greatest murderer in the history of mankind. we dont hear as much about the purges as the haulocaust because the u.s. was allied with stalin and we lovingly refered to him as "uncle joe" during ww2. not saying hitlers any good.

That is like asking "Which tastes worse, urine or feces?".
