I disagree on a fundamental level. I agree that these people are evil, but the conclusion that thus they must not "get a statue" is pure fantasy. People should be allowed to do what they want with their owned property, including erect a statue of anybody they want, no matter how immoral.
Stalin, in my view, was a profoundly evil man. He had no regard for human life, he had no sense of moderation, and he was what amounts to the ultimate incarnation of the "Janny" personality.
Yet, if somebody had a huge block of marble and tools to carve it, should they choose to carve a statue of Stalin and place it upon their own property, so long as they do not hurt anybody else or their property, they should be allowed to do so.
The people who are glorified ruined lives, they shouldn't have been honored with a statue in the first place. Evil people shouldn't get a statue
you are not in charge of deciding who is evil. nor enact sentences upon them.
If they kill or enslave people, they are evil
