Well...
at the very least, he painted pictures...
Stalin, on the other hand, just had them erased... especially if you were one of his generals in a portrait. And then not only were YOU erased, he had your family erased as well.
But hey... national socialists are ALWAYS worse than international socialists...

“Nazi see” is saying it twice.
It would be more accurate to say “I did Nazi that coming”.
Now... if only more people had bought his paintings...

He does seem to live in his own little world. It would explain a lot.

Look at the grin on Molotov’s face, behind Stalin. He was an evil little bastard too.
And the erased guy looks like a demented gnome.
What REALLY happened there is, Stalin pushed the guy over the wall into the Volga... “Look Comrade!!! I make Joke!”

25+ million Ukrainians kulaks would whole-heartedly agree with you.
Too bad one of those Russian generals didn’t put a bullet through Stalin’s head and save some lives.

RE :”

Lord, I didn’t know Molotov lived into the 80’s.
The erased guy was Nikolai Yezhov, Head of the NKVD.
He was arrested on trumped up charges but under interrogation admitted to lots of homosexual activity and alcohol abuse.

Stalin had Molotov’s Jewish wife arrested and sent to a gulag.

RE Threats:
True enough... but you know there had to be times SOMEONE with a gun was nearby.
Guts were what was required.
But he had a lot of “True Believers” too.
None of these clowns - Stalin, Mao, Hitler, etc., did it alone.

The Telegraph’s art critic Alastair Smart says of the piece, “The work is of no intrinsic, artistic worth whatsoever.
...
Which describes most “art” that sells for a fortune. All that matters is the fame of the artist and the rarity of the work.

Rafael Trujillo of the DR is a seemingly rare example of a dictator who was assassinated by his own generals.
