Why did the roman senate not want Caesar to be a perpetual dictator?
Only a minority of senators did not want Caesar to become perpetual dictator. Caesar had filled the senate with his supporters. This is how he managed to have himself appointed as perpetual dictator, which went against the rules of the Republic.
Prior to the perpetual appointment, Caesar's had himself appointed dictator for one year and then for ten years. These were already breaches the Republic's provision that the term of office of a dictator had to be six months and his appointment was restricted to dealing with emergencies. Caesar's appointment as a perpetual dictator ensured that he would be an absolute ruler for the rest of his life (a dictator had extraordinary powers) which run against the ideals of the Republic. He also had given the impression that he was trying to become a king, which was an anathema for the republicans.
The Republic had been established in 509 BC as a result of a rebellion against Tarquinius Superbus, the last king of Rome, who was a tyrant. The Romans decided to do away with the monarchy and swore never to allow anyone to try to become a king to prevent the return of tyranny. In the Early Republic one man was executed and another one was forced to commit suicide because of accusations of trying to become a king. They also decided to have the Republic headed by two annually elected consuls. Having two men in charge meant that they counterbalanced each other. The short term of office meant that no one could concentrate power in their hands. Caesar, instead, concentrated power in his hands when he won his civil war against the senate.

Was Joseph Stalin a World War 2 dictator?
Cautious and always suspicious, but yes. Stalin had already been receiving US Aircraft (especially the P-39 Aerocobra), warships, rifles, ammunition, food, and medical supplies from the US.
Stalin would most likely have wanted them to for the reason that if the Western Front were to be strengthened, Germany would have to strengthen their forces against them. This would require pulling troops off the Eastern Front and therefore from his.
If the Western Front were to lose or collapse altogether, troops and equipment would be flooded to the Eastern Front. With the abundance of new numbers, Stalin's forces wouldn't have stood a chance.

Was Stalin Nazi or a dictator?
Joseph Stalin was a corrupt bureaucrat that warped the Socialist ideals of Marx and Lenin (and other Marxists) into a totalitarian regime where the state controlled absolutely everything. Communism by default is highly against a state even existing. Stalin was not a Communist or a Socialist by any means. He was a fascist that used Communist imagery and ideology to control everyone and everything.
The only difference between Stalin and Hitler was Stalin did not kill people because they were of a certain race. However Stalin did not treat everyone equal and thought homosexuality to be a crime, much unlike Lenin who argued for homosexuality and abortion to be accepted (legalized during the planned socialist stage of the country)
