: Zeph is right. Hitler was really a psycho. A villain who
: slays his victims like no other. BUT did u see hitler
: ditching his own soldier? Did u see hitler run away? Ŭ
: am not saying these things as compliments, but he was
: very devoted to his objectives and he was seen as a
: prophet through the eyes of his comrades.
: Another example, Genghis Khan, he's a god if u ask a
: mongol who he is, he's a god's wrath or villain if u
: ask a European historian who he is:)
: ANOTHER example, Atilla the Hun, he is a legend if u ask
: me, as a Turk, Ŭ am very honored to witness a great
: leader who thought nothing of victory and good things
: for his people. (Can u imagine, the chieftains of the
: tribes that were in his order called Atilla
: "father".)But if we had the chance to ask a
: Roman who he is, he would spit to the ground and jump
: on it.:)
Exactly an evil person depends on point of view. To me Cromwell is a viscous *********************************************************
But to some people he's a great hero. Or any of the Irish Revolutionaries of 1798 or 1916 are seen as hereos but as villians in other nations. The only person who I can call truly evil is Soulblighter, he kills not for power or for the good of somebody but to kill.
Actually when I think of it none of those who are widely viewed as evil are truely evil, its the little psychos, like murderers and rapists who are truly evil. They do what they do only for their own enjoyment.
