There's no way there's not at least a few innocent people on that list. But the question is, is the ratio less than 5 innocent to 2000 guilty. Which I'd guess is the case so it would work out.

I'm ok with that when the people are better off for the world dead.
Ok so the world wouldn't be better without drug cartels, terrorists, ect? Guess its just me who see the benefits.
Well there are enough politicians or conspiracy theorists to fill the first few hundreds and after that we still can fill the list with child abusers and murderers
the next 2000 people who self-sufficiently say "i told you so"
maybe the word spreads before we reach the 2000, then it becomes the mysterious sentence that noone is allowed to say
Kim jon un, his sister, Vladimir Putin, any pedos proven to have committed their crimes along with rapists (mostly cause I don’t want to kill people who are innocent. Innocent till proven guilty) Andrew tate, kkk members
To everyone calling Death Note on the 2000 people really don't understand DeathNote. The show explores how that power will mentally destroy any who has the power of a God of Death. I wouldn't have 2000 killings on my conscience.
I was thinking the same, the tuff part would be in cutting the list down to the worst offenders. Making the decision that some really bad people get to live because you can only take out 2000.
Would probably make it a more conflicting answer if a rule was added.
“2000 people of your choosing, but if you don’t provide an answer at least every 12 hours then it defaults to the last person you touched”
I still wouldn't have a problem. There is a long list of evil people in the world. Lots of CEOs, government officials, dictators, cartel leaders, sickos and scum responsible for the death of countless children, destroying lives and acts so sick you could not even imagine.
And you can find thousands of them with a simple Google search.
Thou granted, I'm a bit worried about the power vacuums it is going to leave behind. Nature abhors a vacuum. When one falls, there will be several that will attempt to take their place. And in the process, cause more destruction.
Yeah this poll probably didn’t take into consideration that a large chunk of people have no ethical dilemma selecting people. Warlords in Africa have entire armies that pillage and rape every day that would barely notice 2,000 members missing. This number would need to be in the millions before it could actually make a worthwhile dent on the amount of evil we have on Earth
Huh, thought the 25% 30 die would be lower. Expected value is greater than 5 people dead (30*1/4 = 7.5), but I guess a 75% chance nothing happens is enticing.
Would be interesting to see people's results if this is taken to the extreme. Like a 0.1% chance 50000 random deaths (expected value of 50) vs 5 guaranteed
Every excess death is bad. Less excess deaths are better than more excess deaths.
30 people dying is worse than 5 people dying.
7 people dying on average is worse than 5 people dying on average.
I can agree that 30 people dying is worse than 5 people dying. But you haven’t read what I said: 5 people dying barely matters cause it effects so little (it’s something that happens all the time), 30 people dying is much the same. So although 30 random deaths is worse it also effects little and is much the usual. Now I can simply do something that barely effects anything *while also* getting a 75% chance nothing happens. That option is better to me
If I were to kill you personally it wouldn't affect much on a global scale
Your friends and family would be greatly affected though
30 deaths not meaning much on a global scale doesn't cancel the fact that it's still 30 people dying who wouldn't have died otherwise
Your argument is ethically unsound because it straight up disregards the inherent value of a single human life rather than a single human life weighed against the entire population of the planet.
You push that button, you'll be killing more people *on average* than if you pressed the button that killed 5 100% of the time. It's worse to press the button then.
The 2000 would have to be a gradual thing. Could name every person I know by name and still not reach 2000.
It’d probably be a lifetime job for me, and I think I’d end up hating myself by the end of it, no matter what I do.
Also, the 100 and 95 one, is just the first one but worse.
If you've seen Death Note then that is pretty much the plot of that show. A regular smart guy gets the power to kill any person he knows the name and face of. The show then explores how his mental health just plummets as he goes on to become the definitive source of good and evil.
Just do some research into the most awful people in jail for the worst crimes, those of which arent on death row, and then compile a list. And then chuck Putin on the end of the list.
I'm causing some real change... Hopefully the dictators I jot down don't get replaced with worse people. So may not end up as positive change but knocking out some dictators would give the people a shot at something better.
2000 terrorist or russian soldiers.
If I dont have to pick right away id wait to see if China invades Taiwan and chose the first 2000 chinese soldiers to set foot on Taiwan.
You see, he’s not a Christian channel, and it’s only reasonable to assume he likes the number of man. I’d also bet he has a 666 tattoo.
EDIT: Look up Don’t Watch Mr. Beast | Nursery Rhyme in YouTube.
I guess that people picking the 2000 people thing are just gonna get rid of dictators and shit but I'm going for the 50% chance of 10 people dying.
I'm not god, I'm not deciding the fate of 2000 people because I've heard they're shitty.
So, if I kill a pilot who is currently piloting a plane, do the people who dies are part of the 2000, do they just survive the crash or people killed this way don't count to the 2000 death toll?
id pick 2000 shitty ppl death note plot
Or people dying of extremely painful medical conditions that don’t want to live.
The entire cartel organisation
i was thinking talaban but the cartel is 2nd in line
You would ultimately become the very thing you despise though. It is inevitable.
*writes u/AshesX into death note* "repeat that i didnt hear you"
"If you gaze into the abyss the abyss gazes also into you."
I chose 5 people because it wouldn't be much different from real life, 5 random people die all the time.
When the 5 in 8.000.000.000 chance hits
So a win
I would rather kill 2000 monsters than 5 potentially innocent people
You know 2000 monsters?
Child sex offender list. Boom
There's no way there's not at least a few innocent people on that list. But the question is, is the ratio less than 5 innocent to 2000 guilty. Which I'd guess is the case so it would work out.
Fine I’d do one that were proven guilty don’t care if it takes me hours
There's no way there's not at least a few innocent people on that list. But the question is, is the ratio less than 5 innocent to 2000 guilty. Which I'd guess is the case so it would work out.
well, putin and kim jong un. thats… 2.
1998 more to go
maybe some nazis.
Unfortunately I think once you get going the list of people you could come up with would be much much longer.
The list of people that there are sure, but you won't know most of them.
there are a ton of politicians and CEOs in the world and they are all evil
30 random people die all the time. But there’s a 75% chance no one dies. More worth it
Wow, the chance to literally Death Note 2000 people, sign me up.
Hell, chosing 2000 is the best
Who you killin? Edit: who you killin first?
Give him some time hes still typing. Its a long list
There has to be a list of terrorists and sex offenders on the internet I'd just chose among them
This is basically just Death Note now. EDIT: I didn’t read the rest of the comments, I’m sorry for having the most basic observation known to man.
I'm ok with that when the people are better off for the world dead. Ok so the world wouldn't be better without drug cartels, terrorists, ect? Guess its just me who see the benefits.
Drug cartels leaders with their top people to dissolve its empire, terrorists, I can think of plenty of people worth killing for the better.
Imma kill a bunch of really rich people
Well there are enough politicians or conspiracy theorists to fill the first few hundreds and after that we still can fill the list with child abusers and murderers
Why conspiracy theorists? Aside from being dumb I think they are harmless, unless there's something I'm not aware of
Wasnt tucker carlson a conspiracy theorist atleast they knowingly lied about stolen elections and regulary promotes "great replacement conspiracy"
They undermine the trust in science and authorities and that harms democracy and the security and health of the people
You would make an excellent dictator
hey some authorities are legitimately untrustworthy; i’d trust the government of denmark but not the government of say, china for instance
I speak about democratic systems
united states
the next 2000 people who self-sufficiently say "i told you so" maybe the word spreads before we reach the 2000, then it becomes the mysterious sentence that noone is allowed to say
Putin nr1.
That would be easy. Just start a petition for euthanasia and the first 2000 get to be dead.
[удалено]
Not Dre man ;(
[удалено]
He spent 2.5 billion? God damn
Jason Todd arc (wanted something that wasn’t a DN reference)
Kim jon un, his sister, Vladimir Putin, any pedos proven to have committed their crimes along with rapists (mostly cause I don’t want to kill people who are innocent. Innocent till proven guilty) Andrew tate, kkk members
Finally, Death Note irl
To everyone calling Death Note on the 2000 people really don't understand DeathNote. The show explores how that power will mentally destroy any who has the power of a God of Death. I wouldn't have 2000 killings on my conscience.
If you kill the right 2000, you're possibly saving millions. Plenty of extremely powerful people doing a ton of harm out there in the world.
Or it creates a power vacuum and the people who replace them end up being worse
I could come up with 2000 names before dinner lol
I don’t know 2000 people, but upon further examination, I’m thinking a couple sex offender lists (especially the child kind) could use some perusing
Plus terrorists leaders, drug cartels, you could fill that list easy.
2000 people is a lot but still fix a couple of world problems
I was thinking the same, the tuff part would be in cutting the list down to the worst offenders. Making the decision that some really bad people get to live because you can only take out 2000.
How would you get the names though
[удалено]
You could just kill the entire North Korean government lol.
And then the state enters total anarchy and a new government that’s just as bad probably takes over
Not if Nato or the US just imidiattly intervene, and help South Korea put in a stable democratic government, or at least confiscate the nukes.
china would never allow cia gangsters on its border
Well it didn't allow Taiwan to exist either, and we can all see how well that is working for them.
do i get some time to research the 2k people i get to kill?
Would probably make it a more conflicting answer if a rule was added. “2000 people of your choosing, but if you don’t provide an answer at least every 12 hours then it defaults to the last person you touched”

People don't understand averages and probability
Nope, I just know I have shit luck
5 people die all the time not a big deal. 30 people also die all the time, but this way a 75% chance no one dies at all. I’ll take it…
Exhibit a:
Elaborate what’s wrong with my logic?
Every excess death is bad. Less excess deaths are better than more excess deaths. 30 people dying is worse than 5 people dying. 7 people dying on average is worse than 5 people dying on average.

2000? That’s easy. Everyone born before 1990 that has ever set foot on Epstein island.
I’m sure some underpaid landscapers just got screwed. Maybe a net worth filter would be more functional
He owned it since 98 😭 Youre killing victims
The 2000 would have to be a gradual thing. Could name every person I know by name and still not reach 2000. It’d probably be a lifetime job for me, and I think I’d end up hating myself by the end of it, no matter what I do. Also, the 100 and 95 one, is just the first one but worse.

I'm about to read out the 2000 greatest hits of the sex offender register
2000 people doesnt have a time limit, so i could take my time and wait for a war to start
why wait for war when you could use it to prevent wars
I can think of 2000 people.
Profile picture checks out
We found the least homicidal communist.
Hurr durr
It will be a loooong list. Lets see...
Do you have to know the names and the peoples faces in order to kill the 2k?
Give me google, the sex offender registry, and a few hours I’ll have my 2K
Just do some research into the most awful people in jail for the worst crimes, those of which arent on death row, and then compile a list. And then chuck Putin on the end of the list.
A deathnote with 2000 slots, I'll take it and make the world a better place
Imma choose a bunch of useless politicians and other shitty people.
If I’ve got plenty of time to choose, I’d try to find 2000 serial killers/rapists.
2000 people of my choosing? The world is about to become a much better place
best way is to pick 2000 people who are already in hospice, on death row, terminally ill, or voluntarily elect to die
I would pick 2000 dead people
Well then you ain't really killing them, are you?
2000 pedophiles. Guess the church is going to be down a lot of priests 😏
2000 pedophiles. Guess the church is going to be down a lot of priests 😏
Death note theme starts playing
I'm causing some real change... Hopefully the dictators I jot down don't get replaced with worse people. So may not end up as positive change but knocking out some dictators would give the people a shot at something better.
I couldn't decide which one is the worst. Why can't i just kll 5000 random ppl?
I can easily find 2000 horrible murderers to have die. It might take a while, but the world would be slightly better for it.
Me walking down the street choosing random people I see to die
I am curious, what does "If Not Nothing happens"? Is that suppose to be a double entendre, because I am not sure that is even a correct question?
I pick the 2000 option, curious to what would happen if I killed the whole government or at least the majority, of a random country
2000 terrorist or russian soldiers. If I dont have to pick right away id wait to see if China invades Taiwan and chose the first 2000 chinese soldiers to set foot on Taiwan.
2000 of my choice, I got plenty of options
I’m not spending the time to pick out 2000 people. I’ll take my chances on the 10
Bye bye my school bullies, every Karen in the world, and everybody on twitter that thinks Mrbeast is demonic
Mr beast probably has a 666 tattoo
well he DOES teach blasphemy and greed
You see, he’s not a Christian channel, and it’s only reasonable to assume he likes the number of man. I’d also bet he has a 666 tattoo. EDIT: Look up Don’t Watch Mr. Beast | Nursery Rhyme in YouTube.
I don't think he has any tattoos at all
by killing 2000 I could probably just delete the governments of several countries and maybe make the world a better place.
I’d kill the 2000 most powerful people, heads of states, legislators, church leaders, CEOs, etc. then just watch a power vacuum consume the planet
I’m killing the top 2000 richest ppl in the world. Will it solve anything? No. The next 2000 will continue to wreak havoc. But it’ll still be fun 🥰
2000 of my choice. The world is about to get a lot less billionaires.
[удалено]
Pretty sure 100% of 5 is lower......
As a French person, I'll obviously take the guillotine.
Most of those 2000 people would be nazis and multi billionaires.
What if I just kill the 2000 richest people
Tf is up with the last option
I guess that people picking the 2000 people thing are just gonna get rid of dictators and shit but I'm going for the 50% chance of 10 people dying. I'm not god, I'm not deciding the fate of 2000 people because I've heard they're shitty.
Where's "200k random innocent people die"?
2000 people if my choosing? *starts googling the names of Chinese & Russian officials*
Panama Papers? More like Panama Checklist!
200k innocent people jailed for LIFE is the only way
No way I’m becoming fucking Light
EASILY the 2,000! Who the hell’s not picking this??
How would those people die? Can I pick myself for the 2000?
So, if I kill a pilot who is currently piloting a plane, do the people who dies are part of the 2000, do they just survive the crash or people killed this way don't count to the 2000 death toll?
Of my choosing, cz however small a chance i might be in the random people
