Stalin also had more time to do it and a larger country to do it with.
Hitler managed ~10 million by execution in ~5 years, and less directly caused another ~20 million in that same time period, with plans to continue it indefinitely if he won the war. Stalin would’ve had to murder the entire population of the USSR to match Hitler’s rate of killing - not coincidentally, that was Hitler’s long-term goal if he won.
Stalin was bad. Stalin was one of the worst human beings to ever disgrace this planet, and deserved a noose.
