Which three people would you like to see go "Bye Bye Bye"?

In My Humble Opinion
1

Hypothetical: You get to pick any three people to make disappear overnight, for the purpose of making this world a better place. They won’t be killed, but they will be permanently…elsewhere.
They have to be people that are currently living, they will never be found, and your participation will never be found out unless you want it to be.
Pick your people, and make your case.

I don’t believe I could honestly answer this question without inviting the Secret Service to come visit me again.

3

  1. Kim Kardashian

  2. Khloé Kardashian

  3. Kourtney Kardashian

(can I pick more than 3, it’s a big family?)

Reason: they annoy me.

You know, I used to think thoughts like this quite a lot in my darker moments.

But I then considered the consequences of disappearing the ones I most frequently selected.

And in general, it would be an issue of instant martyrdom, new conspiracy theories, or massive social unrest and/or civil war in multiple nations that could destabilize the world and lead to such massive butterfly effects that it terrified me.

So I don’t do it anymore.

Instead I imagine people I loathe instead being unmistakably, inexcusably, caught in public by their own supporters as well as the media doing something that even the most jaded apologist finds disgusting and abhorrent, with the video getting quickly distributed world wide beyond the reach of even the greatest firewalls of keeping out. :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

For that scenario, my current 3 (and it changes on a regular basis) would be Putin, DeSantis and Erdogan. Ask me again next week, and the first will almost certainly be the same, the second most probably, and the third will have likely but not absolutely change.

Just one. Myself. I don’t mean physically, but my ego, that thing that thinks I’m “me”. Me is full of all sorts of stupid opinions, misremembered events, anger, envy, you know, all the bad traits humans have. When I am “not there” in my simple Zen meditation or mindfulness, life is good. Reality just is what it is w/o my mind insisting on a point of view.

What’s tuff about this is that nature abhors a vacuum. I’m going to pick three, but three will quickly fill their space.

  1. Vladimir Putin
  2. Donald Trump
  3. Ron DeSantis (or MTG).

MTG is only one of the current laughing stocks of the GOP. But what if she got power?

7

True. So maybe just Elon Musk, plus two people from my workplace to be named later? :thinking:

8
  1. Vladimir Putin
  2. Donald Trump
  3. Kevin McCarthy or Mitch McConnell (I’ll let you pick)
9

Vladimir Putin
Donald Trump
Tucker Carlson

If Putin were disappeared, I’d imagine Russia would just collectively shrug, and then elect/appoint a new head of government who would try to clean up Putin’s mess as much as possible.

If Trump were disappeared, as another poster predicted upthread, his supporters would lose their shit. They’d blame Democrats, they’d blame the media, they’d blame Antifa, they’d blame the Deep State, and anyone and everyone else they could think of. A few might start shooting/bombing.

If Carlson were disappeared, Faux News would just hire some other right-wing nutjob, of which there are legion, to take his place. But at least he would be gone.

Vladimir Putin
Samuel Alito
Marjorie Taylor Greene

11

There are three people whom I would prefer to be gone, but none of them are politicians or famous figures.

12

Most of the ones I would pick would become even more “magical” to their followers if they just disappeared without a trace. The person is never the problem; the people who follow them are.

13

I think for that reason the best choice might be 3 Supreme Court justices.

14

Instant civil war. Who but the incumbent administration has the power to just disappear three justices? Unless the Doper with the superpower can prove they are responsible.

15

Yeah–that was what I was thinking as well. Get rid of the three youngest conservatives, and the nation would change for generations.

16
  1. Donald Trump
  2. Vladimir Putin
  3. Ken Jeong
17

I’d like this to work, say 50 years before now, and then my choices would be

  1. Newt Gingrich
  2. Rupert Murdoch
  3. Vladimir Putin

Now, it’s

  1. Donald Trump
  2. Lachlan Murdoch
  3. Vladimir Putin
18

The actor?

19

Have you not seen The Hangover Part II?

20

No, the annoying guy who appears on TV shows and movies for no apparent reason.
