ITT: Dictators, tyrants, and madmen who don't get enough attention

Back in high school, I was apparently the only kid who even knew this guy's name, let alone who he was.
>>
>>1642045

Mussolini is still well remembered.
>>
>>1642045
You went to some bumbfuck highschool so what?
>>
>>1642045
Some stupid Socialist shithead who only ate crackers and milk and got strung from a lamppost. So what?
>>
Mussolini isn't forgotten he's just completely overshadowed by Hitler
>>
>Mussolini not having enough attention

You know that it's a bullshit, right?
>>
>>1642121
I went to an American public school so... yeah, pretty much.
>>
>>1642141
Oh

Sincere question: do you know ALL US Presidents or does American Education just select a few of them, as Lincoln, Washington, Roosevelt etc. etc.?
>>
>>1642151
Only a few. We don't go over people like Filmore but we go over all of the Twentieth Century ones.

Albanian bunker man, truly the biggest madman.

>>1642156
Here we cover until Partisan wars, then history after '50s is literally not-taught.

I still struggle to keep in mind in what year Vietnam wars were.
I think around 1966-1972
>>
>>1642045

Would Stalin count?
>>
>>1642151
I can only think of nine US presidents off the top of my head, sadly. The most we got was having portraits of all the presidents hung on the walls of history class. But only a handful were ever mentioned.

I live in Italy and I know Mussolini very well, if only because my high school has a giant fucking mural of him in the gym hall (now covered with black trash sacks held together with duct tape).
A dictator I don't know much about is Franco. I literally wasn't taught about him and I didn't know that there had been a Spanish civil war until my father told me, which is kind of weird since Spain is basically next door

How can someone forget this handsome man ?

>>1642602
How do Italians view Il Duce?
>>
>>1642045
If anything, Mussolini is overrated. He walks on a fineline between tinpot dictator and a pioneer of fascism, totalitarianism and some cool art movements/aesthetics
>>
>>1642879
They teach us he was bad, and it's illegal to form a new fascist party (that didn't stop the current neofascist hard right party to form). You can buy souvenirs and lighters and whatnot with his face on it in some road stations, and he's become kind of a meme.
This is the result of former fascists blending back in the society after the war and claiming they were communists all along - grandma used to whisper to me on the street whenever we passed a known guy from either faction.
>>
>>1642111
sorta. basicaly he is remembered as a bumbling retard who constantly got wreked by everyone including the ethiopians and then died like a bitch. sad because he is interesting as shit. >>1642141 we study basicaly the first 10, lincoln, both Roosevelts, wilson kinda, then kenedy, johnson, nixon and Reagan. maybe bush 2 and obama depending on the class.
>>1642136
this too. he is basicaly the 3rd wheel in the Axis, everyone talks about Hitler and Tojo/Hirohito.
>>1642239
nah, most schools/colleges talk about him. usually that he was a monsterous cunt who killed a shit ton of people and fought hitler.
>>
>>1642186
>history after '50s is literally not-taught.
What, when I went to school we stopped after the fall of the wall. Now I believe they teach until 9/11 at least, this is mandatory in this country

Antonio de Oliveira Salazar

Really interesting dictator that not many people outside Portugal and Spain know about.

They still sell bathtowels with Musso pic on them in Rome unironically.
