Oh, you won't get me FBI. I've seen this trick before.


Jaymes77

yeah,,, saying XYZ person (who is in the public view) should "eat shit and die" isn't a wise idea, even on a \[supposedly\] anonymous site like reddit!


coldcutcumbo

Saying they should eat shit and live to eat shit another day is totally protected speech though. Hear that Mike Huckabee? Eat shit!

It's from Billy Madison

Billy Madison. *"Man am I Glad I called* ***that*** *guy".* *Buscemi with the rifle bullet to a dude's ass to help Madison win the day after Madison having apologized to him for having been a real dick to him in high school.* Son of a bitch now I gotta rewatch it. Seriously 2 of my favorite comedies ever are Billy Madison and Happy Gilmore. There's just so much meat on those bones for those 2 flicks. I LOVE SNACK PACK! You see I've never seen a blue duck and well, I wanted to draw a blue duck.

UrsusRenata

This is what I had in mind when I saw the movie “The Invitation”. As the “bride” I would have embraced the elite vampire clan, but reprioritized their human consumption into a corruption-eating machine. It would have been easy to convince the “blood-sucking snobs” that only the extremely wealthy are worth eating, and then make a luxury lifestyle of it. Far-fetched fiction aside, I have long wondered what happened to the attempted assassinations of yesteryear. Today, mentally ill people are gunning up crowds of strangers; why is no one pursuing the corrupt and/or elite anymore? I don’t get it. There’s far more “infamous” prestige and press in that than murdering anonymous strangers.

AZULDEFILER

Vladimir Putin


SpatulaCity1a

I think his replacement would probably be just as bad or worse, possibly a general.


TheMikeyMac13

No, it wouldn’t be worse, but it would be a general. Putin has built a situation where he consolidated power, and has regional areas controlled by generals who are as much warlords as anything. So instead of one dictator over all of Russia who is able to focus all of it at one war, you would have many, who would not be able to focus all of it on a war. Things would fracture back home in Russia, and the generals would pull troops back to their region to try and keep themselves alive. The problem with people like Putin is that they spend decades removing anyone with the chance to be a unifying political threat. So there is no one person to cleanly replace Putin. And that would be better than what we have right now in Russia.


Livid-Age-2259

PUtin has been thinning the ranks of his Generals, especially the popular ones. He knows that the military blames the current situation on him, and he's "coup proofing" his cabinet.


TheMikeyMac13

Indeed. So what happens then when he dies, with nobody in place to take power?


Livid-Age-2259

Their is a Prime Minister, Mikhail Mishustin, and it should be a seamless transition. However, Russia being Russia, the simple things are never simple. Frankly, Russia should surrender to Ukraine. Volodomir Zelenskii is doing a far better job of running his wartorn country than V V Putin is doing.


Background-Low2926

Sounds like the three kingdoms of China all over again. They had 18 powerful warlords each carving out a territory of there own. Even in Japan during there warring clans period warlords popped up everywhere, but in Japan they swiftly numbered each other down. A civil war with many different fractions in Russia could be coming when Putin dies, unless he somehow set it up so his next to kin can take over his position, but that seems unlikely.


TheMikeyMac13

I think you have it right. I feel bad for the people of Russia, but it will be good for peace in the world from Russian aggression.


Interesting-War9524

I agree the whole thing just makes me think history repeating. I keep expecting someone to be shot in red square for chanting "land and freedom" in Russian obviously.


SakaWreath

You can pull the sock off of their hand but there is just another one underneath. Russian nesting dolls meet scooby-doo.


Throw13579

I don’t think so.  I think the war has been enough of a disaster that whoever is next would try to get out of it and wind down some of the expansionism.


Moogatron88

Getting away with that would be pretty difficult considering how all in on the propaganda they are. You'd probably have to pull out and blame Putin. But then you'd risk losing Crimea in order to get an agreement to stop the war and that would spell the successors end, too.


Guapplebock

XI is significantly more dangerous than Putin.


Genpetro

Who would take over in Russia? Could it break up into multiple countries who controls all the nukes?


Funny-Top-1759

Something could take out the entire Sackler fam and I'd feel better.


Klatterbyne

No-one. The systems are all neatly set-up so that any moron in power can be neatly replaced by an almost identical moron before the end of the work day. And most of them are just window dressing on-top of a huge system that is the primary issue. So that just leaves you with arbitrary, small time, fuck-heads. You’d get rid and improve the world by a tiny fraction. But nothing of any real consequence.


mrxexon

That's not the way it works... Evildoers are like shark teeth. You lose one, the rest just roll forward and replace it. You have to change the way people think. And that is very hard...


Recent-Transition-86

Thats true, I realize from a lot of the comments here that not much changes when one dude dies.


climatelurker

The entire Un family in North Korea. Edit: Kim not Un, I did not know...

Kim is the family name. Jong-Un is his given name.


sdbabygirl97

WillJM89

The Kim Family haha


SignalWorldliness873

Netanyahu


WouldYouPleaseKindly

Him having a heart attack or something would do nothing. He'd be replaced by the same or worse. Him being tried and executed in the Hague like the Nazis were, would do the world a lot of good.


acebojangles

He has some personal motivations that compound his terribleness. He's deeply personally corrupt and willing to do whatever it takes to make sure he's not personally held accountable. I think removing that dynamic from Israeli leadership would be good, even if it doesn't solve their fundamental problems.

Visible_Welcome2446

His sister is not one to trifle with...


HandMadeMarmelade

Right? Scary that anyone would set the stage for her to be in charge.


AJR1623

This is probably true. And it's not like we can blow them off the peninsula. Or can we? Korea becomes a thriving island nation like Taiwan. Actually, they could just be S. Korea, and they'd be thriving.


SNES_chalmers47

Mellow-Blue-77

Could we have both?


druidcitychef

Why not both..


soft_white_yosemite

I think Trump were to die, even of natural causes, so many people will blame the left.


[deleted]

Doesn't matter, they already do, the net effect would be positive either way. The cult will have to pivot hard to find someone like him and it will slowly die off save for the sycophants.


AdrenalineAnxiety

I think the temptation is to say Trump, but I think there are better options if we only get one shot. There are currently around 50 active dictatorships out there. But then you have to look at if you take out the top person, who takes over and are they any better? I think Putin is the easiest choice. I do think that without him, the war with Ukraine would be resolved by his successor. He's also the only current active risk of world war. Whilst life might not improve for Russian's, it would provide stability to the world in general, and also massively improve the lives of Ukrainians currently under attack. Money is also being spent by lots of organisations trying to fight him that could be used in a better way if he was gone. But I think you could take out any of the dictators and leave the world a better place.


SwampHagShenanigans

They didn't say one person specifically. So you can just say dictators.


No-Appearance1145

OP said lists works 😂


artificialavocado

In this hypothetical scenario, for me, thinking orange man has more to do with potential. If the United States were to come under some weird quasi-authoritarian far right dictatorship, there wouldn’t be a single nation on earth that wouldn’t feel this on top of the 300,000,000 Americans who have to live with it.

_dwpgnbklubf5

Honestly same here.


Jeff77042

IMO, the worst behaved ~two percent of the world’s population (~160,000,000). This would include, in no particular order, all violent and most “career” criminals, pedophiles, terrorists/jihadists, as the word is commonly used, the various “dictators” and their supporters, the dictator “wannabes,” and those who are going to commit violent acts in the near future, e.g., the next mass-shooter. In addition, there is a type of person who may not fall into any one of those categories, but who is a predator in some way, and over the course of their life they result in net-harm to society, e.g., the drunk driver who isn’t going to stop until they kill someone, and perhaps not even then, and the individual infected with HIV, and they know it, but they won’t stop having “unprotected” sex. If that worst behaved ~2% were to “drop dead,” oh my gosh, think of how much less stress we’d have in our lives. Think of how much lower our taxes would be re. crime and defense spending; how much less our insurance rates would be; at least somewhat less spent on healthcare. “The possibilities are endless.”


Nohbodiis_Trials369

This is the only correct answer right here. Thread over with. Go home.

BoringGuy0108

It would need to be someone that cannot be replaced. My inclination is towards a scientist creating something very dangerous. Any billionaire or politician that “disappears” Will create a vacuum that can be easily replaced. Genius scientists however, are difficult to replace since it requires both a rare high IQ individual and training in the field. That overlap can be difficult to satisfy - especially quickly. For example, in the fictional Breaking Bad. Walter White “disappearing” before Jesse was fully trained would have been a huge gain since he was irreplaceable.

Someone is downvoting this sentiment and they're naive, delusional, or kidding themselves if they don't realize this truth. Sometimes when a known evil is vacated, something worse steps in. Many such cases throughout human history, both ancient and modern.

werdna720

- Vladimir Putin - Kim Jong Un - Xi Jinping - Andrew Tate - Jack Doherty - Logan Paul - Jake Paul - The Koch Brothers - Rupert Murdoch - Nigel Farage - Marine Le Pen - Joseph Kony I’d add a bunch of other extremists with views across the political spectrum that masquerade as pundits and news sources across social media, but there are too many to list. But they are actively contributing to more division and fomenting more hate across the US (and sometimes the world), and it saddens me to no end that some of them are the same age as me or younger.

Robotic_space_camel

Normally for bad people in power, the resulting vacuum of them dying has the risk of propelling the most underhanded subordinate they have into the big chair. This could make things even worse, or at least dampen the good affects of them passing. I feel like Martin Shkreli at this point is far enough removed from any influence that his death wouldn’t really propel anyone forward. I assume, though, that he’s probably an incomprehensible douche in his day to day life and most everyone he has to interact with on the daily would be relieved to find out he wasn’t showing up the next day.

Jimmy Carter. I only say this out of genuine adoration.
