EPTWhat good is being immortal in history if you're also hated every day you're still alive? Living won't be worth living for, and after you're dead, you won't get to enjoy your fake immortality, loved or hated.

For example Hitler knew he was hated, but he didn't care because he had all of Germany at his feet worshipping him. Don't read too much into the question, just answer with whatever comes into your mind first...Glad to see the response :D | ||

I am probably taking this too far but whatever actions you have in life do have a ripple effect and being hated would have one too. I'd pick Forgotten. | ||

I don't fear death. However the hated option simply means I did at least one thing in my life that made everyone take note. That to me is infinitely superior to dieing an unknown nobody. Plus hated is purely subjective and my actions may prove to have had merit decades later. Then again, perhaps I am just a dick. | ||

I have to go with forgotten, because I could never do anything bad enough to be hated for eternity (or at least a really, really long time), even if I wanted to. | ||

lol people saying they want to be hated to the level of hitler (like the OP said) truly do not understand the ramifications of their actions nor do they comprehend the evil they must commit to be remembered like Hitler. Think folks. | ||

Hating him cannot change the fact that he lead Germany out of economical and cultural ruin into one of the most feared war machines in history. It's a wonder what a person with absolute power who uses it in a brutal way can do, isn't it? | ||

But to use the example of any dictator: Hitler, Stalin, Pott, hell even Kim Jong-Ill. They may be hated by the world, but they don't realise that because they're so narrow minded. For example Hitler knew he was hated, but he didn't care because he had all of Germany at his feet worshipping him. Don't read too much into the question, just answer with whatever comes into your mind first...Glad to see the response :D The thing is, he might not have cared due to his narrow view, but looking at it objectively he did some pretty rotten stuff. So when it comes to it, I'm not that interested in personal accolades in my lifetime while driving some poor bastards to the dirt and only later being hated for it. Making some small positive contributions to those around me and fading out of memory is enough. | ||

e: You took it so extremes you can't even make it fun to think, for me atleast. ._. + Show Spoiler + this is taken to extreme too but it feels like you are asking if I prefer to die via TnT or C4 explosion | ||
