These have come in after the Canadian presidents gaffe this morning.
"Mr. Stalin's greatest achievement was his eradication of obesity in the Ukraine through innovative agricultural reforms." "Today we remember Adolf Hitler, whose vision for the autobahn changed the face of vehicular transportation forever." "Let us remember Osama Bin Laden. He was a thief and a terrorist, but he had a marvelous singing voice."
That last one made me LOL for a bit

My favorite was the one about Freddy Kruger making kids dreams come alive.

Ah yes, that wonderful paradise Cuba where so many Stefan Browning's and other like minded people are trying to immigrate to that they have to turn them away...
Its been interesting seeing the reaction to his death, Claire Curran called him a legend on twitter for example. A lot of leftards have that weird anti american thing going on that makes them overlook what the likes of Castro got up to because he "stood up" to the US.As you say there's zero chance of them giving up their prius and house in Wadestown to move over there and become part of the revolution.

@Hooroo Let us remember Jack the Ripper as a great benefactor who worked tirelessly to get female prostitutes off the streets
Osama Bin Laden was certainly a controversial figure, but his contribution to airport security is unparalleled
And my winner so far
While a controversial figure, Pol Pot will be fondly remembered as the creator of Skull Jenga -

Trudeau makes a cock of himself , twitter is merciless
Didn't his Mum have a bit of a thing for Castro at one time?

@Catogrande there's been an online rumour circulating this week that Castro is the Canadian pms dad, apparently it's impossible but his parents were so obsessed with trying to appear "right on" it's hardly surprising that he attracts rumours like that.
His dad met his mum when she was a 22 year old and he was 50 odd and may or may not have boned a porkys era Kim Catrall , not a bad effort there on his part.

Yeah, if only he was one of those rightie dictators like Pinochet there'd be no misery.
You really want to compare left wing communist dictators with right wing ones?
I will start with 2..
Stalin and Mao. Death count in the tens of millions........ your turn.FFS, you really are a new level of tiresome.
Right and left dictators are as shit as each other, if you and your cronies want to flap on about the degrees of shitty-ness then go for you life.

Really isn't true, left wing dictators easily top the body count. Of course, dictators by definition are awful but you can't ignore the political leaning and it effect on the populace.

FFS you really are a bullshit artist. All mouth no substance. I am sure it is tiresome when people call you on your nonsense... but maybe you could stop talking nonsense?
There is no equivalence, left wing dictators have an order of magnitude higher body count, you can just ignore that if you like, but dont expect other to swallow your bullshit,

Then why on earth did you react to the wording "communist dictator" in the first place? That was plain weird.
-
@Nepia spot on, but ideologues will attempt to seize on anything to "prove" they are right. In this case, Stalin and Mao means that right wing politics is better than left. Not often you get to hear something so blatantly stupid said in absolute seriousness, I suggest you enjoy it for the joke that it is.

I know this doesn't fit your world view, but it's just a fact that left wing policies taken to their extreme have killed many millions more people.
Not a controversial point at all, just history.
Dictatorships were just the mechanism in place to deliver those ideas.
This all started because Nepia bristled at the distinction of a communist dictator, claiming a false equivalence with the damage done by right wing dictators. Not even close.

@Kirwan how did Hitler go?
He was comparable to Pol Pot, but an amateur compared to Stalin or Mao. He's also an outlier, can you name another right wing dictator that compared with these guys?
RIP 2017
