George Soros should be #1.
60+ million person tie: everyone who voted for hiLIARy.
Well there is some good news?
..only half of them were eligible to vote.
10. (tie) The Kims: Kim Il Sung, Kim Jong Il, and Kim Jong-un
9. The Sanhedrin of Jesus Day
8. Ivan Grozny
7. Vladimir Lenin
6. Muhammad
5. Adolf Hitler
4. Josef Stalin
3. Mao Zedong
2. Margaret Sanger
1. Karl Marx
Tied with pickles.
A rogues gallery of US bad men and women would be especially interesting. That list would be 100% unique between Marxists and Patriots. Top of the list for Marxists: Lincoln. Top of the list for Patriots: Obama.
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.
One short list....probably accounts for 80% of violent deaths in all history ? Damn,,we are surely a dangerous species are we not ??
All leftists & totalitarians who protected their power by any means possible including lies, deception and denial.
Amazing so many in the world today cannot correlate the relationship of leftism and evil
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.
By inference you must include the modern American Democrat Party. The democrats have adopted as religion the views and methods espoused by the majority of individuals on the list.
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.
They forgot Pol Pot. While the number of people he murdered is comparatively small his ideology and methods absolutely earn him a place on the list.

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....
