Trevor Blake: Who Gets to be Kitsch, Who Doesn't
[LINK-ZUM]
Che Guevara ordered the execution of at least fifty and perhaps more than two hundred people while serving as a prison warden in 1959. All your revolutionary needs can be purchased at The Che Store. Joseph Stalin managed to murder or starve five to ten million Russians. There's a flocked plastic statue of Uncle Joe with your name on it. Mao Zedong is responsible for the death of seventy-seven million of his commrades. Sign up now for your plastic Mao bust.
I can think of another political leader who killed more than two hundred people, less than seventy-seven million people, and around the lower amount of five to ten million. But that political leader doesn't get to be kitsch. Perhaps the difference is that you have kill some people for the betterment of all people, not just your people. Then you get to be kitsch a generation or two later.
