The list is made up of folks that were demonized by the west and not really hated by their people.
Re: Top 50 Most Hated People In History by Racoon(m): 1:45pm On Dec 09, 2025
Adolf Hitler and his infamous NAZI party/govt should top that list of infamy. He will forever rots in the deepest part of hell.

I watch documentaries on their murderous atrocities in Poland especially Aschwizt Birkanau, Sobibor & cried myself out.
Re: Top 50 Most Hated People In History by thesicilian: 1:47pm On Dec 09, 2025
Some of these people were obviously despicable, people like Hitler and Vlad the Impaler. Some of them were just nationalists doing what they knew best for their own people. However for people like Idi- Amin, Gaddafi and Sadam Hussein, I don't really see who hated them apart from the USA. Even someone like Osama bin Laden who was trained by the USA in the art of espionage was not really hated by any other people apart from the Americans because he used their own evil strategies against them.

By the way who hated Pablo Escobar? That guy was and still is a role model to millions of youths grin
Re: Top 50 Most Hated People In History by doncartel: 2:36pm On Dec 09, 2025
No women on the list. Include Elizabeth Bathory, the most evil woman in history. Buhari, Tinubu and Abubakar Shekau also missing.

ALTERNATEID:
The list is made up of folks that were demonized by the west and not really hated by their people.
1.Hitler...facisim was popular in many parts of the West, until Hitler started invading other european countries...so why won't they demonize him.

Infact, both Hitler and Mussolini were popular...before 1939. Then Hitler started invading other countries, including Russia...to get more space for his people to live in, which meant driving people from their houses or exterminating them

I haven't even mentioned the Jews.

2. Nero, Caligulia, Atilla the Hun, Genghiz Khan and some others on the list lived long before the concept of a modern west came about.

As for hating Genghis Khan...the guy invaded lots of countries who had not attacked or bothered his country, including a lot of European and Arab and Asian countries. One of his successors commited atrocities of the kind in what is now Iraq, that he makes Saddam look like a nice guy. Saddam, for all his faults was not a ultra-psycopath. And thanks to Genghis Khan, the progress the Islamic world was making in science was given a very big blow. He wrecked many of the centers of learning there.

3. The Kims rule over North Korea..that's 13 and 14, is so vicious, that most people parrot the party line to stay alive. It's that scary. And then there is Pol Pot who makes the kims look very kind and gentle. Imagine being driven to a village as a learned person, or being killed because you were intellectual...that's Pol Pot.

4.Pinochet, Mobutu,and Gehllen (the last named ran intelligence for west germany and the CIA..his actual masters)...were all Western puppets and creations.

1.Idi Amin is hated by many Ugandans, including people from certain tribes like the Langi, Acholi, and Buganda. And most other Ugandans. The man was that brutal. And he was not removed by the USA...he was removed by Julius Nyerere, who was very anti-USA, anti-Imperialist, and who removed Amin because he invaded his country.

HIs secret police makes our DSS look like nice people. Go and read what happened to Benedict Kiwanuka, the then cheif Justice of Uganda, and what the SRB did to him, and how they killed him. Or the Anglican Archbishop of Uganda, and many others.

2.Saddam was a brutal dictator, who got his country into one unnecessary eight year war. US did not even get on his case, until he invaded Kuwait. Before he invaded Kuwait, USA even saw him as an ally, and even armed him...after all he was attacking Iran then.

3.Ghaddafi was a massive dictator. He used oil money to decieve most of you, that's why many of you sing his praises. (Libya was a country of six million with an oil output of 5million barrels per day...the leaders can loot and still have more than enough to keep the people well). Any dissent was punished brutally. ANY DISSENT. This is not what tinubu is doing witn MNK....this is things like arresting a student, having him tried by a handpicked 'tribunal' who sentences him to death without a defence lawyer, no appeal, person hangs in minutes. Not a nice guy, and this is not me saying that because the West...he is like Pinochet of chile who was even worse...and Pinochet was a Western creation via the CIA.

Saying down with the imperialists, or USA is good does not equal good government.

4. Osama that is probably hated by people around the world...incliding kenya, tanzania, where his bomb attacks killed a lot of people in 1998?
That espoused a ideology that could have caused chaos around the world ? Nah, evil.

5.Escobar that killed hundreds, and also mounted a terror attack on the capital of colombia in 1985..that led to the deaths of dozens? That one na example? Plus his drug trade has killed and maimed millions. Pray never to have a cocaine addict in your family or among your friends...na painful thing.

No American?

The Poll must have been conducted in America where they feel everything revolves around them.

Henry Kissinger
George Bush Jnr
Donald Rumsfeld
Donald Trump
Barrack Obama
Joe Biden

They all deserve a place on that list.

Edit.

20, 21 and 22 are Americans but who has heard about them before? Why were the hated? What crimes did they commit and against whom?
Re: Top 50 Most Hated People In History by YesDaddyTill203: 10:48am On Dec 10, 2025
Just add Nathanyhu, the war criminal from Israel.
History will not be kind to that criminal.


Knowing what we know now, Hitler was not a bad person.
Re: Top 50 Most Hated People In History by fineboynl(m):

Re: Top 50 Most Hated People In History by franchasng: 10:49am On Dec 10, 2025
Stalin should be number one because that man did more evil than Hitler.


Hitler was a very shy, calm man who was overshadowed by much brutal men around him like Himmler the brute and Goebbels.



Joseph Stalin alone murdered over 60million people including his own Russian citizens.


Russia as a nation have produced the most ruthless leaders the world ever had, see attached image.

History, they say, is written by the victor to suit their own views.
There are Americans on the list, but no American politician. The founders of America killed more people than Hitler, but Hitler lost the war, hence he can't write the history to suit his own view.
