Mao is still the champion, yes. that obviously isn't accurate at all. hitler is responsible for 17 million deaths of only noncombatants. since he started ww2 in europe the number is actually much higher and all of hitlers deaths are intentional while most of stalins were more from negligence than intentional murder. stalin murdered millions, but the majority attributed to him in ukraine weren't deliberate murder and were more from bad policy at the local and national level. while stalin didn't care about those deaths it isn't exactly the same thing as intentionally setting out to murder them. also 75 million number for mao isn't accurate. communist china is generally thought to be responsible for around 65 million deaths and most of those mao is responsible for, but equating deliberate murder to every death is disingenuous and serious historians make a distinction between the two. --- I am thinking about just walking into the river now that Megaupload is gone and condoms are in porn.-Fubonis ...
