Hannah Arendt, a political theorist, once said “The masses have to be won by propaganda.” This quote exemplifies one of the ruling methods utilized by both Joseph Stalin and Adolf Hitler. Joseph Stalin ruled Russia from 1924 to 1953, while Adolf Hitler ruled Germany from 1933 to 1945.

What he did to the Jewish people in concentration camps was horrific, he treated them horribly in and most of them ended cremated. In conclusion, despite claims that Joseph Stalin was a more violent and extreme leader than Adolf Hitler, Hitler’s actions and decisions prove contradictory to such
