People saying trump and Farage don’t take the word evil seriously.

💯

My aunt loves Putin. She fancies him, too!

Why is Putin worse than Netanyahu

Putin is murdering his own people.

There are plenty of evil non white men and women as well.

I’m sure there are but the people we have heard of tend to be white, male and older because they get more power in the world.
I am sure there are similar men in Africa for example that have power there but that the people posting on MN have heard less about them. How people like Trump get into power in a democracy like America is a worry.

So are the leaders of Iran.

My husband is Iranian - they are literally shooting people dead in the street. They are hanging people.

Yes I agree the Iranian regime is up there too.

Amazing how many have chosen leaders of our allies and so few leaders of our enemies, with the exception of Putin, who is a legitimate contender.

Trump shouldn’t make the cut. Stupid and crass, yes. Dangerous? Possibly. But truly evil? Why?

And, as for Farage, seriously! A minor league slightly (by global standards) corrupt right wing politician. What is truly evil about him?

And then we have the Taliban leaders, the Iranian leaders who thought nothing of shooting 10s of thousand of their own people.

Then we have Kim Jong Un and even Xi Jinping and the Uighurs.

And, if you include Netanyahu, surely Hamas leadership should be up there and especially the architects of 7/10.

This list does show a very left wing demographic. Fine to criticise the dodgy leaders of our allies, and they are particularly poor quality atm, but there are a lot of truly evil leaders out there who would do us genuine harm if allowed.

I agree with a lot of your points. But I don’t agree that it’s wrong to label Trump as evil. His leadership has directly and indirectly lead to a huge amount of death and suffering. Cutting USAID, ICE crackdowns, Roe v Wade being overturned, changes in access to healthcare, vaccine rollback and spread of misinformation, the war with Iran. There will be many more. These are issues that he has made a direct choice to inflict through his executive orders, through his choices of politicians to lead in areas of healthcare etc. He made these choices despite being informed of the death and suffering they would cause. So whilst I agree there are many evil people across the world, I absolutely would put him into that category.

Wait until after the budget, you may reconsider

I don’t think that they’re likely to start torturing people or poisoning us if we don’t pay up!

Trump wins. Netanyahu is bad but has been empowered by Trump. Putin third, then Farage and then Jimmy Carr.

Whats the score with Jimmy Carr?

I do agree with this. I just take issue with the idea that white men are the root of all evil. It is simplistic.

Jamie Varley. Disgusting pos I hope his days are numbered.

ThreadGuardDog · Today 12:11

Anyone who thinks Reform are the answer to the UK’s problems.

LoftyPlumLion · Today 12:14

My mate Derek is a proper so and so! It's him.

GoingToEgypt · Today 12:14

Netanyahu
Taliban leaders
Iranian leaders
Trump
Putin

And there will be many many other evil men committing atrocities out of our sight and out of what is published in our news.

People are capable of unspeakable horror, sadly. Even some of the comments on Facebook from ‘ordinary’ people quite take my breath away in terms of viciousness and cruelty.

Quite possibly Muhammad Hamdan Dagalo Musa (Hemetdi).

A toss up between Putin, Trump, Farage and my ex husband.

Exactly this!!

‘Bill Gates too.’?! He is one of my heroes.

He has done more good through his philanthropy than virtually anyone. He has already given away more than $100bio and plans to give away more that another $200bio before 2045.

He has done so much to vanquish malaria, a disease that kills millions a year. That more than makes up for his sexual peccadillos.

And that is leaving aside his creation of Microsoft, which virtually all of us use.

Oh dear. Philanthropy does not mean someone isn’t a bad person. Remember Saville?

It’s not ok to belittle and racially profile and age shame people because you ‘ have heard of them’.

Netanyahu

Yes, along with Ben Gvir and Smotrich. I'd also include Elon,Trump and Hegseth.

PickyTits · Today 12:24

Hiroshi Miyano, Jō Ogura, Shinji Minato, and Yasushi Watanabe who murdered Junko Furuto.

James Patterson Smith who murdered Kelly Anne Bates.

I can't believe people are saying Farage when people like that exist. That's not to say he's not an odious little gobshite but worst human alive? Not even close.

I mean, the list could go on forever and we'd still never know if we were close to hitting the top 100 never mind the number 1 spot.

Friendlygingercat · Today 12:24

So many contenders - Trump, Putin, Netenyahu, Andrew M W,

Unfortunately one of them is a crackpot as well as being evil. No prizes for guessing.

Lifeomars · Today 12:26

Rupert Murdoch has been a malign prescence for many a long year

Netanyahu

For protecting his people? Hamas who put Jewish babies in microwaves way above him. And yes we do know it’s true as Hamas filmed it. Luckily the IDF took the bastard out last week
