Poll: Most Evil Invention Ever Created?

[lwm3398]

The DMV.

this X a trillion billion million hundred thousand.

that is the most horrible place ever.

but,it's not the building that's evil,it's the people inside. the people make it bad.

You can yak on and on about agent orange, iron maidens, and thermonuclear bombs until the eagles choke, and they still pale in comparison to the monolith that is the Department of Motor Vehicles.

not knocking your statment im just saying... i mean nuclear bombs killed like what several million?
compaired to cars.
the day a car has the ability to whip out a city in 10 seconds is the day ill say the DMV is worse then nuclear warfare.

Not to knock yours, but I meant mine as an inside joke.
I can see how you took that to be serious. I too agree that nuclear weapons are possibly some of the worst weapons ever created, and that Earth should never again use them (I'm looking at you , North Korea).

one exception,America put a shield over Israel and nukes the middle east...please?

Communism.

No other invention killed over 100 million people.

I bet Capitalism's killed a lot more indirectly.

You're talking out of your ass. How exactly would that happen? You mean those people, who died due to draconic working conditions and poor healthcare? It was 10 times worse in gulags and additionaly there were mass murders. Also all wars in the last few centuries combined didn't take as much lives as Stalin alone. It looks like you lost the bet.

So the death toll in third world countries brought low by Capitalism, sparking war and genocide across huge parts of the world and condemning millions upon millions to poverty and death across the African and Indian continents. Yeah I mean who cares about them they don't matter. I forgot to some people its only the deaths of those in the Western world that are real and the fact that communism is dead and over means its much worse then an evil that continues to persist in our world right now, constantly being supported by countries like America. When history is looked back on in the future I think we will find the scourge of Capitalism to be far worse then the atrocities committed by Communism.

The problem with you Che Guevara t-shirt sporting, socialist "rebels" is that you don't understand what exactly do you rebel against, except white guys in fancy suits.
Capitalism only defines economic system, I believe what you mean is Colonialism.
Free trade =/= financing war criminals and keeping slaves on your banana plantations.
In fact international free trade, unlike UE interventionalism to create unfair competition, would help 3rd world countries a lot.

I don't actually support communism you know I'm a Fascist actually, I also hate those "cool nonconformist, stick it to the man" type people and I believe both communism and Capitalism to be bad systems, but of the two I believe Capitalism to be the greater evil due to its continuing effects in this day and age.

America is the only powerful capitalist country. i mean,call me a troll, but why would you think capitalism is evil? we helped stop the Nazis,who i think were socialist, which is just their way of saying "we aren't communist" but believe me,socialism is a communism clone. Hitler killed 6 million civilians with the holocaust and probably a total of 7 million with the casualties added to that. and that's one war. communism has killed much more than capitalism. i agree with Kukul,you're talking out your ass.

You do realize that socialism is the ultimate form of communism right?also if you were to look at the list of most powerful states in the world (if ever such a list was made) then almost all of the states would be capitalist

Uh, this is like a trick question or something, am I right? Cause it's gotta be the bomb. Its purpose is to cause massive scale impersonal, indiscriminate death. That's about as cold-hearted as it gets.

Also, what is up with people saying 'no invention is evil, it depends on the use people put them to'? Purposes are inherent in inventions. Nukes came into existence because they kill people. That's why nations continue to build them. Or did I miss the history lesson where they dropped the bomb that spread flowers and ambrosia and happiness when it blew up?

okay,what is up with this? religon did NOT KILL HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS OF PEOPLE

there haven't been holy wars for about 5 centuries,and even then, it was only about a hundred thousand people that died because of them.

okok america lets seee wat exactly hav u done to date to other poorer countries

cuba a communist group rose against a dictator and freed the people yet america tried to stop that as they wer using them for cheap labour and when they finaly won america blockaded them from the rest of the world
The vietnam war that was the highlight of american brutality i mean they slaughterd how many innocents in ther ideal for it being a "just" war
Lets go back to the world war the dropped 2 nukes on two heavily populated towns filled with innocents to prove a point when it was unneeded.
I'm not saying that americans are evil assholes more their goverment but its to point out that capatolism isnt better than communisum but nor is communisum better than capotalism each one has flaws just like anyother its more down to the actual goverment who enforces the ideals
and nw i apologise to any americans i hav offended

China isn't. Russia isn't. Canada isn't. Germany might be,i'm not sure. and you know how communism is the government controls where money goes? socialism lets the people control where the money goes. as i said, it's a clone.

[Smowy]

Yeah religion doesnt kill people, extremists do. You can't condemn religion on the action of a few people, or we wouldnt use chlorine since it was used to gas people in a horrible way.

I would say cluster bombs, since they're designed not to kill you, just blow off your limbs.

1. i did say most not all
and 2.They aren`t clones THEY`RE THE SAME GODAMN SYSTEM!!!!! read das kapital it gives you a basic idea as to what communism is all about

Edit:And fuck knows what merkel`s goverment is i think it`s conservative (republican if you`re from US)

 

[Kinguendo]

I'm going with drugs here the rest aren't really evil in any significant way.
On a side note whats with all the religion bashing going on? If your atheist that's fine but don't go decrying peoples faith.

Faith in a "God" is different to faith in religion, religion is a man-made concept and is so blood-stained its why some people turn away from religion.

 

[ThrobbingEgo]

Seriously, I like how some people who are all about eugenics have no idea how natural selection works.

Tell me, how do you feel modern technology and resources have thrown natural selection out the window?

Note: This is not my interpretation of YOUR post, but a different, related question.

Survival of the sexiest/greediest, I'd say, but that all depends on your location/culture.

If anyone thinks it's wrong that I'd like to specifically marry and start a family with an asian woman whose heredity isn't tainted with diabetes and heart disease like my own, then they can kindly go fluff themselves, gosh durn it!

There's actually another practical reason to be with someone who's genetics are very different from your own: parasites. As an adult, the parasites in your body fit you like a glove, but your immune system also had years to adapt along side it. Anyway, when a baby is born and breastfed, the mother passes some parasites along, but they wouldn't be "optimized" to feed off that baby. It gives the child's immune system a head start.

That's also partly why you don't want to have child with a close relative - you'd be passing on mature parasites that would be more able to harm the baby.

About our evolution: I don't know and, frankly, I don't care. Evolution isn't like it seems in comic books. It's not like we're evolving to be higher life forms, or something. I think if there are going to be any major alterations in human genetics - they'll be hand picked by people.

And i think the atom bomb is the most evil thing...Although have you seen the medievil tourture/execution devices...

1. Religion is hardly an invention, it has been around since the dawn of times.
2. While I agree it opressed a hell lot of people, I don't think that over 100000000 people were killed in the name of it. Casualties caused by Inquisition + witch burning + crusades + expansion of Islam + victims of various terrorists + other minor religious conflicts are still a fraction of this number.

Well, no it hasnt actually. Unless you are a christian and are talking about Christians dawn of time... then still no, you should believe "God" has been around since the dawn but not religion. But Christianity is preceeded by alot of other religions and all of them preceeded by man and man proceeded by the other animals and them by earth itself and that by the happening of the universe and that by... well, take a guess... cos' thats all it is going to be. So to correct you, no, religion wasnt around since the dawn of time and it is an invention of man.

don't you talk about Vietnam like it was a mistake! i get so pissed when people ***** and moan about it! we stopped the north from making the south a communist country! and as for African poor countries, they shouldn't be poor. they have amazingly fertile land,but it's the communist dictators that stop them from developing in to a booming produce developer. and as for Hiroshima,those two bombs stopped the Japanese from sending innocent 18 year olds to a death by forced kamikaze.it made them notice that they better not screw with the USA. And look at Japan now,i believe they are capitalist now,and are producing great anime and getting wealthy from it. all because we dropped a few bombs and got them away from communism. china was good back in the world war 2 days,and now they're a dictatorship/communism which is totally evil. they also pollute more than America,but aren't antagonized for it because they're a "developing country". same goes for India,but i'm losing my train of thought. as a closer, communism has caused a whole lot of wars,and must be destroyed completely so the world can unify and kill all other major evils, like terrorists. oh,and get some grammar skills.

religion isn't only Christianity. religion like the Egyptian's,Babylonian's,Greek's,Native American's,Islam,and Judaism are much older religon's than Christianity. and they WERE around since the dawn of time.
