The Election from hell

[amadeus]

I see threads like this as a kind of an entrapment for idiots. I see a few on the hook already as they vie to post their witty/pithy/<lookatme> comments to a thread that poses a question for which no rational, mature person answers.

So why are you here?

 

[cubsfan6506]

I would waste my vote on a thir party candidate.

 

[scherbchen]

To object.

Stalin, because I hear he was well embalmed...


Hey, they're all corpses now, right?

 

[Endim_Analys]

Mussolini, he had the decency to build a crappy military so that he could be easily overtrown when the mandatory fascist war came about.

 

[Irish Caesar]

Plus the Japanese of that time lived with honor something the likes of Bush, and well all modern politicians could use some of today.

You're right. What happened in Iraq was terrible.

We should have done it Nanjing and Bataan style instead.

 

[Cheezy the Wiz]

I accidentally voted for Tojo, I meant to hit Mussolini.

Hey look man, if your going to invade somebody for their oil you better be willing to do it right.
I call for an end to the pussyfication of imperialism

Spoiler :

You do know I'm being sarcastic, because the entire premise of this thread is totally bonkers right?

The closest a president came to being a dictator was, surprise, surprise, Abe Lincoln.

 

[brainpan]

How in the name of Christ does this come up in a discussion about WWII dictators?

 

[brainpan]

My vote is for Tojo.

Stalin was an incompetent jackass who killed his best generals, Mussolini was also an incompetent jackass who may well have cost Hitler the war, and Hitler was just shite-nuts...so by default Tojo is the winner in my book.

Oh no, God forbid a president take away habeas corpus in a time of civil war.

 

[jeps]

I vote for Mussolini.

He saved Jews from Hitler. That says TONS about him.

Stalin killed millions. Hitler killed millions. Tojo had people die needlessly instead of surrendering, wasting lives on both sides for no reason.

EDIT: and while people like Al_Da_Great make me want to throw up, and I am very happy I blocked him, and if he wasnt a teenager who lived in sweden I'd do things that speaking of could get me banned from the forum for speaking about for calling the holocaust 'a MISHAP (an unfortunate accident or bad luck)', I find that almost just as bad are people like (sorry for using you as an example, but yours was the first post I saw when I decided to write this) Miles Teg.

Hitler. I'm not a jew, so I'm probably safe. Blue eyes. Check. I don't think Hitler would be in any position to overly criticize brown hair...


Hey! I'm just thinking self preservation.

I would like to quote Martin Niemöller, a Lutheran pastor here.

"When the Nazis came for the communists,
I remained silent;
I was not a communist.

When they locked up the social democrats,
I remained silent;
I was not a social democrat.

When they came for the trade unionists,
I did not speak out;
I was not a trade unionist.

When they came for the Jews,
I remained silent;
I wasn't a Jew.

When they came for me,
there was no one left to speak out."

@j_eps

It was a joke. In real life I would never even consider Hitler from those four. I actually memorized that quote a few years back. Half the point of this thread is to give an opportunity for stupid jokes like mine. In the future I'll try and make friends with smilies. And what does All Da Great being a swede have to do with anything? See? I can use smilies!

 

[jeps]

ok, then I retract hte you part, but others who said it or think it...

the fact that he is swedish means Im not going to spend hundreds of dollars to fly to sweden and beat up a teenager. from YYZ, its oh, $600.

also, I would put tojo in second because he is not genocidal, just didnt care about lives, and having him call it "the e'r'ection from he'rr'" would be funnyy.

 

[Virote_Considon]

I'm another vote for Mussolini

 

[AL_DA_GREAT]

So ?
Regardless, no one deserves to die, for any reason.
And you don't call a genocide a small misshap...

The Jews had no respect for germany and the Germans. They would ditch Germany at a moments notice. Very few Jews faught in WWI. The Jews where the only group in Germany to make a profit from WWI. Compared to other genocides like Mao's or stalin it was relativly small. No one goes on about Chinese genocides even though they still have the same reigem.The Jews were also big supporters of Communism and Stalin. Hitler wanted to restore the national pride of germany and the Jews have allways faught all nationalism except their own.

The unemployment in Germany went from 6000 000 to a few hundred thousand. Most of Germanies infrastructure was built by Hitler. Few countries have experianced that much economic growth in the western world ever.

 

[AL_DA_GREAT]

for calling the holocaust 'a MISHAP (an unfortunate accident or bad luck)', I find that almost just as bad are people like

SO the USA should be bombed to peices because of the Native americans. Spainish people should be slaughtered because ofn the Incas, Turks should be killed by the million because of the Armenians. There have been many genocides in history, because of the media every one cares about this one.

Anyways can anyone here name 10 political changes that aren't Jew or war related?

I almost feel sad for you al da...
You're sick...
