So, Hitler was no worst than Stalin, Mao, Pinochet, Pol Pot, Papadoc, Batista, Franko, Sadham, Talaat Pasha, Papadopoulos, Kemal and countless other dictators and "dictators", right?

Not to mention that we should include every military leader as well, right? And every revolution leader too. And we might even include some serial killers, for good measure, huh?

Not quite, what we need is Scope and Context. Otherwise we are missing the whole point.
OK, that was not well posted on my part, admitted. I'll get a fitting response to you in a bit.
