Frist, these looks nothing like the original character. Second, Although Marx, Engels are definitely admirable characters (probably also Ho and Lenin, but I don't know them well enough), worshiping mass murder like Mao and Starlin is just not cool.
No socialist leader was a mass murderer. All of that was Red Scare Western bourgeoisie propaganda to put socialism in a bad light and discourage workers from joining the revolution and taking away the means of production from the Western Bourgeoisie.
The bourgeoisie are the real mass murderous. May I remind you all the people American presidents have killed? Also, Hitler was a capitalist.
Besides:
So Mao isn’t responsible for the millions of deaths under his leadership in labour camps, executions and famine because he was totalitarian and therefore it isn’t because of socialism? Yet capitalism is responsible for all the deaths from poverty and disease according to your image, does that about sum it up?
Also no socialist leader was a mass murderer? Not even one? Every socialist leader much just be a perfect human being then. Very compelling.
All of that is western propaganda, yes. And not being a mass murder doesn't make someone a perfect human. What kind of logic is that?
