      The OP is boring noting the similarity in how former allies are whitewashed from history.

      Specifically, the pic at the top had Nikolai Yezhov removed after.

      In the bottom picture, I this think that’s Prigorin in the middle between Kadyrov and Putin, erased after his coup attempt. I’m not so good at identifying faces, so I could certainly be wrong.

      Political allies suddenly ending up disappearing, both then and now, I think is the idea.
