George Soros should be #1.

If we’re going to go by the amount of evil somebody actually accomplished....OK. Fair enough.
By that measure:
1. Mao Tse Tung is easily the most evil person ever. He starved at least 35 million and maybe as many as 50 million Chinese people to death and that’s to say nothing of a few million more murdered right after the Communist takeover and a few million more during the “Cultural Revolution”.
2. Again an easy choice. Stalin. He murdered way more than Hitler. The estimates are 25-30 million in his death camps, through deliberate mass starvation inflicted on the Ukranians and others, the firing squads that were a constant hallmark of his regime, etc.
3. Then Hitler. It was more like 11 or 12 million who died in his death camps. People always mention the Jews and yes many were murdered there but there were a lot more victims than just Jews.
4. Probably Genghis Khan comes next. The death toll he inflicted will never be known but it was staggering.
5. Maybe Alexander? Other “great conquerors” like Napoleon, Tamerlane, Julius Caesar, Attila the Hun etc racked up staggering death tolls. This is what prompted Lord Acton to rightly observe that most “great” men are really evil men.
I’d add Leon Trostsky to the List of Notable Russian Madmen. Totally amoral, slavishly devoted to the idea of “revolution,” whatever that was, and remorseless in his pursuit of it, I suspect as an end in itself rather than a means toward anything.
Charles Darwin.
It could be argued that his evil myth - the theory of evolution, or, Darwinism — gave rise to demons like Karl Marx, Margaret Sanger, and Joseph Stalin, among others.
Charles Darwin was a truly evil man.
Really, the only one who could accurately assemble this list would be Lamont Cranston.
I though for sure Trump would be on the list.
That's why I laughed when Bill and Melinda Gates promised $10 million for mosquito netting to send to Africa. If they really wanted to save lives, they'd have lobbied to repeal the ban on DDT.
I would rate Vladimir Lenin higher because he perfected the methodology of totalitarian rule adapted by Hitler, Mussolini and most of the tyrants in the Communist bloc and the Third World.
Nicolae, Elena, and Nicu Ceausescu.

Antonio Gramsci....the Occasional Cortex, all the nuts in the DemonRat Party and what is going on in media and academia can all trace their roots back to Gramsci. The outreach of what this one person did is unbelievable....
And every single one of them thought they were the good guys - acting benevolently on behalf of an oppressed people, using much the same rhetoric to justify their actions that we hear out of modern politicians.
I was pleased to see Margaret Sanger at number 2. She was/is a first-class demon (what else could she be?) and destroyer of people and society. And is Hitlery’s self-admitted mentor. Enough said on these evil ones.
Don’t forget George Soros he is the right hand man of Hitler’s originations making sure the Jews were murdered and turning them in to the Germans....That is how he made his money..Most of it anyway..
Where’s Walter O’Malley?
The Bush family should be number 1
The Sanhedrin of Jesus’ day?
Oh, shut the hell up.
I know he has Muhammad listed but the Ayatollahs of Iran would also make my list.
Evilest - no such word. If you can’t use proper English then how do you expect anyone to pay any attention to your ideas? The author comes off as an ignoramus from his title
