I wrote 'Stalin,' but the following applies to Karl Marx, Lenin, Stalin, and communism itself.
Why is it that none are shocked when some academic proclaims himself to be a Marxist...but the same would would not hold if the individual boasted of being a Nazi.
Why is that?
Because communism and Nazism are so different....
Really?
It is because so few recognize that communism is the source of Nazism, and that Stalin was far worse than Hitler.
Nor realize that the Soviets actually taught Hitler's Nazis how to build concentration camps, and Stalin provided strategic materials for Hitler's Blitzkrieg.....
Verification to follow in "The Soviet Story."
"The Soviet Story," an award winning documentary clarifying the close and personal attachments of Hitler's Nazis and Stalin's Communists.
The bottom line is that one glaring difference between Hitler and Stalin was this: Stalin was far more heinous.
"Soviet Story" is the most powerful antidote yet to the sanitisation of the past. The film is gripping, audacious and uncompromising. [...] The main aim of the film is to show the close connectionsphilosophical, political and organisationalbetween the Nazi and Soviet systems."

1. The film opens showing the method used to kill millions of civilians...hands tied behind their backs, an expertly aimed shot to the back of the head, the fall into a mass grave. Not the Nazis....Stalin's Soviets....and this went on for years, well before FDR embraced the USSR.
2. Lenin believed in Utopia, a harmony reached only after certain groups of people are killed: the 'War of Classes'.
'Initially, wherever communists come to power, Russia, Cuba, Poland, Nicaragua, China, it doesn't matter- they destroy about 10% of the people. They are not enemies...best intellectuals, best workers, best engineers...doesn't matter. It is to restructure the fabric of society, a form of social engineering."
Vladimir Bukovsky.
a. "Hang at least 100 hostages, execute the kulaks, do it in such a way that people for hundreds of miles around will see and tremble." Lenin (document shown) He took power in 1917.
3. The birth of "The New Soviet Man" was the stated aim of Marxism, breeding a new evolutionary form of human being who will think, look, and act differently.
The next footage was the Nazi attempt to do exactly the same thing: in German, "We must create a new man! A new life form should appear!"
a. "In both systems we have the ideology of creating a new man. Both systems don't agree with human nature as it is...they are at war with human nature. Both are based on false biology, and false sociology."
Françoise Thom, professor of Soviet history, Sorbonne, Paris
4. "Early socialists publically advocated genocide, in the 19th and 20th centuries. It first appeared in Marx's journal, 'Rheinishe Zeitung', in January of 1849.
"When the socialist class war happens, there will be primitive societies in Europe, two stages behind- not even capitalist yet- the Basques, the Bretons, the Scottish Highlanders, the Serbs, and others he calls 'racial trash,' and they will have to be destroyed because, being two stages behind in the class struggle, it will be impossible to bring them up to being revolutionary."
George Watson, Historian, Cambridge University.
a. "The classes and races, too weak to master the new conditions of life, must give way...they must perish in the revolutionary holocaust."
Karl Marx, People's Paper, April 16, 1856, Journal of the History of Idea, 1981
b. "Before Marx, no other European thinker publically advocated racial extermination. He was the first."
George Watson.
5. A year after Lenin's death, 1924, the NYTimes published a small article about a newly established party in Germany, the National Socialist Labor Party, which "...persists in believing that Lenin and Hitler can be compared or contrasted...Dr. Goebell's....assertion that Lenin was the greatest man second only to Hitler....and that the difference between communism and the Hitler faith was very slight...."
November 27, 1925.(Article provided in the film)
So....Karl Marx, the father of communism, endorses the extermination of whole groups based on their political and economic outlook.
Men, women, and children.
Did you notice the use of 'holocaust' in Marx's statement?
We'll get into more of what "The Soviet Story" teaches about the first Marxist nation.......
