Choose!










They all killed lots of people unnecessarily, for various reasons and to varying degrees. Who do you consider the worst and why? Mao and Hirohito probably have the highest death tolls racked up, directly or indirectly. Then Stalin. Then you get guys like Nero who make them seem completely sound of mind by comparison. This is a toughie. Others like Saddam Hussein, Ceausescu, Leopold II, and so on are all pretty worthy too. It was hard to limit this list to "9 plus other."

Are they by definition... tyrants?

I get what you mean, but tyrant is an odd word to use

I debated putting Hillary Clinton on there for laughs, but figured it'd delegitimize an otherwise serious and noteworthy poll. And that SJW mod who loves to stalk me would probably find some way to delete the topic over it.

Mao did it with intent... Clinton just coldly ordered some deaths like it was for breakfast

It's kind of hard to be a tyrant when you've never had executive power.

Hence why it would be for laughs... and delegitimize the poll.

You just burned yourself with that nonsense.

How did I burn myself?

Hillary sucks and I have never voted for her, in primaries or the general election.
I was giving her a burn, and a far more effective one than you feebly attempted, but clearly you're too stupid to have realized that w/o me spelling it out for you.

Adolf Hitler.

Sure, Mao and Stalin had higher death counts in that a lot of people starved to death due to incompetence and corruption.

But Hitler was one of the only guys trying to actively exterminate enormous portions of the world population for ridiculous pseudoscientific reasons.

Japan was doing the same I think but I don't believe Hirohito himself was behind that. Maybe I'm wrong.

Also aren't a lot of the tales about Emperor Nero of dubious authenticity?

Came in to say this. While Nero was a bad guy in the sense that he was a Roman emperor and as such used violence and slave labor to rule over others. However the big thing he gets called out for was the burning of Rome. The evidence we have doesn't prove he actually did it and more then likely was an accident. In fact after the fire burnt most of the city down he spent a great deal of his own personal wealth to feed and house the citizens of Rome while he rebuilt the city at his own personal expense.
If any Roman emperor should be on this list it should be Caligula. That guy was insane to the tenth degree. I mean the dude would invite the heads of noble houses to his palace and rape the wife's of the men in front of the entire party. Then he'd critique the wives performance to the husbands. He was so so hated that he died by insulting the size of a generals manhood. The general was so angry he chased him down and killed him while onlookers did nothing. Or so I vaguely remember.

In Hillary's defense, she's never been leader of a major country so we don't know what damage she could do.

She didn't order them...
They were ordered by Obama and sent her the info first as a double-check that the intended target wasn't a diplomatic no-go or whatever.
That's not the same thing as Hillary ordering the strikes herself. The Sec of State doesn't do that. >_<

My understanding is that both the stories about Nero and Caligula came from the Twelve Caesars, which is not on its own a reputable source because the writer was highly biased. I don't know if the stories about Caligula are more supported by secondary sources than those about Nero.

Out of that list? Probably Vlad. Guy inspired Dracula and had some pretty interesting stories about him. They can all rot in hell, though.

I interpreted your statement as a burn directed at me, which wasn't because it came across like you were illiterate.
