What was the political situation in the soviet union after Lenin's death in 1924?
A "competition" for power ensued after Lenin's death. At first, Russia was ruled by a triumvirate of Joseph Stalin, Lev Kamenev and Grigory Zinoviev. The competition for power began among Leon Trotsky, Nikolai Bukharin, Zinoviev and Stalin. After some political manipulations Trotsky was made to leave USSR by Stalin and his allies Bukharin, Zinoviev and Kamenev. Thereafter, Stalin allied himself with Bukharin and eliminated Zinoviev. Once Zinoviev was gone, Stalin abandoned Bukharin and he was forced out of the Communist Party as well. Stalin wound up with the whole power of the Communist Party in his hands.
What role did Stalin serve under Lenin?
Stalin had many roles under Lenin. In 1917, with Lenin in exile in Switzerland, Stalin (with Lev Kamenev) ran the Bolshevik Party until April when Lenin returned. Stalin also led the Party when Lenin was in hiding in Finland after the abortive attempted Bolshevik coup in July. He was one of five leaders of the Military Revolutionary Centre, which became the armed force that backed up the Bolsheviks after the October Revolution. Perhaps his most important position was as Peoples Commissar for Nationalities, which allowed him access to many Bolshevik leaders. He made many alliances which later helped him oust Leon Trotsky, Grigory Zinoviev and Nikolai Bukharin as rivals for succession in leadership of the Communist Party after Lenin's death in 1924. In 1922 after the Eighth Party Congress, Stalin was appointed General Secretary of the Communist Party.

What great criticism did Hitler have about Marxism?
First and foremost, Hitler associated Communism (including Marxism) with Jews. Marx, as well as many Bolshevik (Russian Communist) leaders like Trotsky, Zinoviev and Kamenev, happened to be Jewish. The Bolshevik connection is important because they took control of Russia after World War I; Germany accepted many Russian refugees who fled the takeover, and some of these refugees- notably Alfred Rosenberg- became Nazi leaders alongside Hitler. Additionally, Hitler opposed Communism's stance on class conflict and its desire to abolish private property and create an egalitarian society. Hitler was also very militaristic, and Communism tended to strongly oppose militarism and war.
