Not a tyrant!

He stole (mainly) from the rich also

Agreed but he doesn't deserve to be on the Dead Celebrities thread

Putting him here is trivialising horrible crimes commited by tyrants and democratically elected Great Tsar of Russia Put1n.

I'm pretty sure his actions did lead to a few people taking their own life, so he's definitely more towards the tyrant end of the spectrum

So the low threshold of being remembered in this thread is a few dead by suicide?



Just admit to the obvious - you wanted your own "dead" thread, but you've picked far more difficult targets...

Does Prince Philip count as a tyrant ?

Also a good thread to remind ourselves that Thatcher is still dead

Having no political power (other than being a God) - no.

So is Hitler, Stalin, Mao... I think they got a higher score than Thatcher on the numbers tortured, suffering, killed for no very good reason.
