For Stalin and Mao, you can at least argue that there was SOME theoretical underpinning to their atrocities.
I’m not sure watching your people starve to death because you refuse to admit that your political philosophy is a colossal failure is any less justifiable than straight up gassing a race of people.

It's an interesting question you raise: did Mao/Stalin believe they were presiding over colossal failures? The USSR at least had something to show for their insanity (e.g. Sputnik and other scientific advancements). My guess is that they did not think they were witnessing failures.
