So who do you think is worthy of the title 'Most Evil Dictator' of the twentieth century. The criteria we're using are the following:

  • Total body count
  • Relative body count to population
  • general cruelty and oppressiveness
  • wacky policies causing the deaths of millions extra people
  • ideology
  • evil intent yes/no
  • + anything else you think of

Stalin, what an arsehole.
Hitler killed six million Jews. Stalin killed more than twenty million, if you include the Ukrainian famine. There was a doc on about it a few years ago.
I'm not sure of exactly when it was. The statics make the Ethiopian famine of the '80s look small by comparison.

You put Franco and Mussolini on that list and you don't put Pol Pot. That guy was a heavy hitter. A regime of extreme cruelty and oppressiveness with a huge body count , not to mention the extermination of minorities, intellectuals and the plan of a genocidal war against Vietnam.

Yes, I just realized that myself. Can't edit the damn poll.
 
This is basically like asking whether it's better freeze or burn to death. We've also had this discussion dozens of times on this site.
