Those three were all Russian Anarchists from 100+ years ago. From left to right:

Peter Kropotkin. He's mostly known for applying scientific observations in nature about species cooperating and historical research to reach a political program of anarcho-communism. He actually expanded on Darwin, while others perverted his ideas into social Darwinism.
Emma Goldman. One of the first prominent female anarchists. She emigrated to the US, but I have to admit that I don't know too much about her, other than she was rad as fuck.
Mikhail Bakunin. He was the most prominent figure of the anti-authoritarian first international. He is usually known to be the first, "proper" modern anarchist, since he did some much needed development of Proudhon.

All three of them were anarchists and therefore aginst liberal democracy.

Emma Goldman

I mean, just look at that hat! If that doesn't scream "total badass," I don't know what does.

Kropotkins legal name is Bread Santa. So you can tell who he is by looking for the person who most looks like Santa Claus.
