alot of these clowns claim this figure was in all history books back in H.S. and College but not all history books in areas of places I lived showed this figure at all. I learned about him later on down the line.

I didn't learn shyt about this man until i began my own independent study. I went to an HBCU as well as public schools in Texas unfortunately. The school boards all across america ain't shyt if you ask me.

stalin didnt try to actively take over the world by starting a war in europe. he kept his atrocities concealed and his enemies in-house, instead of making everyone who wasnt part of his so-called clan an enemy.

i learned about king leopold in my HS french class, taught by a white dude

Stalin didn't want communism to dominate the world?
Hitler made everyone who wasn't part of his so-called clan an enemy? What was the axis powers then? I didn't know Italians & Japs were Aryans ? Stalin was already engineering genocides in Ukraine before Hitler was even in power, no one cared though, just like no one cared about Hitler either till he invaded western europe.

Only reason we knew about Hitlers '''in house'' atrocities was because he lost, nobody knew about concentration camps when they were ''in house''

Stalin = longer reign of terror, higher body count, bigger impact.

The western media is why Hitler is what he is & why Leopold is what he is, Slav lives ain't worth as much as the francs & anglo's & jews. And african lives ain't worth as much as europeans. It's a damn shame i know more about European atrocities than African ones And they have the nerve to ask why there isn't a white history month

We had Conrad's Heart of Darkness as part of our English curriculum in Canada

wanting and actively doing are two different things. stalin used the russian army to dominate control over the slavic world, and as you said, hitler had to invade western european countries full of markedly different ethnic groups in order for people to pay attention. upper class influential americans trace/d their histories back to western europe, not slavic europe.

hitler signed a non-aggression pact with the ussr before they fought it out, yet held in his ideology that slavs were a subordinate race, his relations with italians and japanese were mere convenience and would have yielded similar results had the axis won.

"western media" is a pretty broad brush to paint with, i think you're correct in noting that hitler was exposed as a monster because he lost, add this to the fact that stalin was Uncle Joe.

im just saying, it's not hard to see why hitler is viewed as the paragon of monstrosity. if this country were full of congolese immigrants and their descendants or founded by eastern europeans, we'd be having the reverse of this discussion right now.

that being said, yeah, we should be learning more about african history in general.

Not in 11/12 of the most popular history books in HS.... rarely taught in college. Not much about it on TV. Only on random places and online encyclopedias on the internet. Not pushed by the mainstream the way anything that happen to jewish people might be pushed.
