Define modern?

because we can go back to the 16th century and still be "modern era"

for the last 200 years though?

I'd agree with Freud
Nietzsche
and Karl Marx

also Ayn Rand (in the US)

I assume people think that's too far back

OP should be more specific but I'm assuming he meant people from the last 200 years or so

1. Jesus Christ
2. Alexander the Great
3. Karl Marx
>>
>>1296912
>stalin
I agree with your list up until Stalin. Reasons?
>>
>>1296393
1. Genghis for cucking asia and the middle east, knocking them out of competition with Europe as most happening continents on the planet.

2. The enlightenment thinkers for turning Europe and later the world into the ideologically divided mess that they are now (if you have to pick one say Denis Diderot. He was the one really pushing the spread of the ideas, which was the key to everything.)

3. Jesus for revolutionizing religion forever by promising paradise for the faithful.
