The people saying Biden is worse because of Palestine as if Putin hasn't killed and displaced thousands of Ukrainians

They're all murderers to me. But what Biden is doing in Palestine takes the biscuit. One of the most evil men in modern day history. 

That would be Netanyahu to blame. Biden shouldn't be sending money there but the sad fact is it's an election year and most Americans are pro-Israel.

I'm surprised nobody has a word about Chairman Mao!

Currently Myanmar junta too.

Of the last 30-40 years? Sure, maybe. Of all time? No, not even remotely.

 

Make no mistake, they're deeply evil individuals but they also both don't have either the intelligence (in Kim's case) or finesse (in Putin's case) to reach the heights that some of the most truly deplorable people in history did. They're making their names in modern history as pillars of evil, but they're gonna fall well well short of what a lot of people I've got no doubt they see as idols achieved.

In modern history - YES

 

In history overall - no. Some dictators in the past have killed more than 20m people sadly.
