[That Robot is a Spy!]

Let's speak about the worst people in History.

Everyone says Stalin and Hitler, Hitler fair enough, but Stalin was nowhere as near as bad as some of the other people. He'd probably be about 14th for me. Most of it wasn't intentional.

who wants me to write a GTM national anthem. it'll be epic

[NFX]

Sure, why not? You'll have to decide on at least some kind of tune first, though.

Stalin was worse than Hitler. Far worse.

Stalin was not as willing as to "going out his way" as Hitler was. Did Hitler have to make the extermination camps? Vlad the Impaler, That Belgium King whose name I forgot, Idi Amin, Columbus even are worse. Vlad killed 20000 people when there were 3 million people alive in the world. That's 150th of the world population.
Stalin did not cause I think the 20 million deaths, although he was careless and should have done more to prevent it.

Or how about Heroes?

It's Ironic, I'm English and my favourite hero is Robert the Bruce :P

Mother Teresa, Nelson Mandela, MLK, Gandhi, Dalai Lama.

[Meganerdbomb]

My heroes in no particular order:
Joan of Arc, Genghis Khan,  Jesus Christ, and Pinkie Pie!

They each have different characteristics I admire.

[Scourge of teh Galaxy]

Actually, Robert the Bruce was a traitor in the fact that he always joined the winning side. Since Scotland had the ultimate victory over England, he's regarded as our hero, whilst he was all but forgotten from your side of the history

My favourite hero is William the Conqueror

He ordered 70000 people to be shot by arrows.

Ghengis is Number 6, here.

Only ones I disagree with are 6 and 1.

He was good to his own people.  Then again you could say the same about Hitler.

Oh, he definitely wasn't a melting pot of friendship, but he was one badass leader. He basically was like, "I'm going to conquer the world." Then, he went and did it. His goal was actually to bring about world peace by uniting everything under his rule. He just might have done it too, if he'd lived.

I can see where you're coming from, but I could say Henry VIII was a badass leader, despite the fact he killed 2 of his wives and executed 28000 people in his reign. We are both right in a way.
And he wouldn't have brought world peace, otherwise we probably would have it today by now. But still the wars rage.

[Meganerdbomb]

Nobody else in history has come as close to conquering the entire world as the Mongols did. But, yeah, I don't exactly consider him to be my moral compass. I have Jesus and Pinkie Pie for that.

[Scourge of teh Galaxy]

I have no moral compass. I do what I want when I want to fulfill my own goal
