Obviously excluding like Hitler, that’s a gimme.

Can be a good or a bad person.

My vote goes to Churchill or Reagan. Absolutely ignorant people of history.

            Ben Franklin was at minimum a massive racist.

            based on what, exactly?

                Ben Franklin was part of the anti-italian brigade.

                seriously though, yeah, that makes sense. i never had any doubt that he'd have bought into the "scientific fact" of races having meaningful differences from one another at the time. i was just wondering if he drew awful conclusions from that idea, like that other races should be excluded from our society or exterminated or relocated or whatever. seems the answer to that is, unfortunately, yes.

                can't win 'em all i guess
