You are interpreting a racial bias that simple isn't there in the article:
Both, #Hitler and #Stalin would be "White"--an invention of early 20th century US right-wingers.
Hitler was #Austrian by birth , Stalin #Georgian.

Premise: “Harriet, who thinks that no real man compares to Mr. Darcy, is transported into Pride & Prejudice and gets an unexpected chance to find out.”
