What's this?

And that's just 20th Century...though Lenin should probably be on there.

Go even further out and you have the likes of Vlad the Impaler, Attila the Hun, Ivan the Terrible, Caligula, Herod, etc.

So where does this week rank Putin on the evil leaders of all time scale? ** -- bigbadbird 03/04/2022 08:44AM

I doubt he's even in the top 50. ** -- HokieNoVA 03/04/2022 09:44AM

Here's a basic top 10 list... -- Chris Coleman

I have seen a similar list that had Stalin #2 and Mao #3 ** -- VTHokie2000 03/04/2022 10:09AM

Not really credible without my old boss on there. ** -- No Clue 03/04/2022 10:01AM

It’s interesting how many of that list we don’t talk about regularly -- Brewing_Hokie 03/04/2022 09:59AM

I'd even call that list a bit Western Civ biased -- Tafkam Hokie 03/04/2022 09:54AM

Stalin maybe moreso ** -- TomTurkey 03/04/2022 2:23PM

Stalin was already on the list...but it isn't an either or. ** -- vthokieq 03/04/2022 2:26PM

Yep, I found a top 25 list also that had those names you mentioned. -- Chris Coleman

Attila the Hun, Vlad the Impaler, Ivan the Terrible -- turkeywinghokie 03/04/2022 2:31PM

Mengele was definitely evil, but not really a "leader". ** -- HokieNoVA 03/04/2022 09:48AM

#10 goes with #1 IMO so its really only a top 9. Good list and the top 4 -- HortHokie 03/04/2022 09:47AM

Amin should perhaps be higher. -- Chris Coleman

03/04/2022 09:45AM

But look at all the medals, he must have been some kind -- santafe 03/04/2022 09:56AM

Nah...he just worked part time at Chotchkie's. ** -- vthokieq 03/04/2022 09:59AM

Peanuts compared to the number of people Stalin killed -- EDGEMAN 03/04/2022 09:48AM

I listened to a podcast series on him. Interesting stuff. -- reestuart 03/04/2022 09:48AM

I have him as a #2 seed -- great2bahokie 03/04/2022 09:11AM

Hes on the bubble or the play in game ** -- HokieJamie 03/04/2022 08:58AM

Agree, he is aiming for the top apparently and putting in an A effort. ** -- HortHokie 03/04/2022 09:39AM

Top 5 with a bullet. ** -- PhotoHokieNC 03/04/2022 08:45AM

No way. There are at least 3 current world leaders more evil than him. -- HokieNoVA 03/04/2022 10:23AM

Nah...recency bias...he's not even in the top 10. -- vthokieq 03/04/2022 08:53AM

Not to downgrade his evil leaderness, but to say "of all time" -- Tafkam Hokie 03/04/2022 09:44AM

I was being kind...he has a lot of work to do. -- vthokieq 03/04/2022 09:56AM

But I will say, the fact he is a contender in the modern era does get him -- Tafkam Hokie 03/04/2022 10:07AM

I see him as maybe Mississippi State on that scale. -- mancunian 03/04/2022 09:05AM

So many genocidal maniacs in the past to choose from -- Happy Dog 03/04/2022 08:59AM
