If he was a dictator he wouldn't be ruling a form of government that allows for impeachment. People often confuse dictator with fascist. Funny Valentine is not a dictator, but he is most definitely a fascist. Also, the amount of Valentine-fanboyism in this threat is sickening and a perfect example of both American cultural Imperialism and the "Draco in leather pants"-trope, because in no objective (read: sane) point of view is Funny Valentine anything other than a vile villain of the highest order. Fascisim is by definition extreme nationalisim and patriotisim to the degree of jingoisim. Valentine's no fascist, he just wants his country to prosper. The whole point of getting the Saint Corpse was to make sure that power never wavered, even long after Valentine was dead. That's not evil, that's heroic.
