Eehhhhhhh.... It's not a competition but if you go back farther than 1930 I think you'd be surprised just how horrible we've been to each other. Hitler had the unfortunate circumstances of having the atrocities committed captured on photo & video. Ghengis Khan, OTOH massacred 11% of the world's population (at the time)

But like I said it's not really a competition. I just would wouldn't go around saying s*** like Hitler is some kind of unapproachable evil that can never be matched by anyone past present or future.
Even if we can find other "unapproachable evils" in history, I think Hitler is a recent enough and easily understandable example of said evil, that he should be the example we point to stop people from going beyond that.

It's a bit of a cop-out maybe and comparing everyone and everything to Hitler and Nazis devalues the weight they should carry but that's the age of discourse we live in
