Stalin and Mao (losers of conflicts with the anglosphere?)
I’m also bothered that all of the villains cited are enemies of the Anglosphere (although these two actually won). B.H. gives a long list which is quite biased in this way. Even Orwell seems to reference Churchill and Truman, and any list ending with Osama and Saddam practically begs for a reference to Bush.
Nevertheless, it’s clear to me that all of the people on B.H.’s list (as well as the others that I mentioned) committed great evils that have been (and still are) defended with hypocrisy and other forms of muddled thinking. And I agree with Orwell’s and Eliezer’s indictment of this.
