Ever been to Auschwitz? Ever seen how about a million kids, women, etc. That one killed 4m alone...

Believe me, Auschwitz is not the place you want to go. There's barracks as for as the eye can see, big crematories were bodies were burned, you can see all the human hair they'd cut off, their glasses, teeths (if gold), etc. The bathrooms were nothing but a hole in the ground, of course, all public. There weren't room for everyone either. It's horrible. Gulag must be a heaven compared to it.

And yet, the entire thing is peanuts compared to Stalin. Several million people? That's a year's work for him. While what Hitler did is a bad thing, the ten million slain in the Holocaust just don't measure up to the 30-60 million that Stalin iced, just for the hell of it. Heck, just the number starved in the Ukraine plus the number of Poles sent to the gulag equals Hitler right there.

Imagine Auschwitz minus the gas chamber at minus fifty degrees. That's the gulag. Although medical experimentation was not standard Soviet MO as it was with the SS, the gulag was by no means a pleasant place, as you seem to think it is. Indeed, those sent there would envy someone gassed in Auschwitz.

We're not going to have an argument as to the whether the Stalinist camp system is worse than the Nazi camp system or vice-versa. Paradox has firmly decided that they don't want such discussions on their forums. Continuing this line of discussion will result in the thread being closed and warnings being distributed.

I won't post anymore on this theme then. I would like to thank Neil however for an interesting discussion.

That you weren't always right is beside the point, of course!
