Well, I wouldn't call them 'nice' in the normal universe, either. Although, does neutral morality have an oposite? It can't be good or evil, so maybe they're the same in both universes?

Plus in the ds9 episodes that featured alt universes, the klingons and cardassians seemed to be their 'normal' selves

I voted the founder since she had the balls (Shes a founder she could of had balls) to destroy a city to scare the Cardassians... granted it didnt work but still evil.
What does defeat mean to you?

Nothing it will never come. Death before defeat. I don’t bend or break. I end, if I meet a foe capable of it. Victory is in forcing the opponent to back down. I do not. There is no defeat.

Evil, yes - but sort of typically, predictably evil.

Apart from their stated intention to BDZ Earth, and their attempt to wipe out the entire Cardassian species. The Nazis didn't want their enemies dead either by and large - corpses are useless for slave-labour.

They didnt want races like the british and americans dead cause they held a amount of respect for them. They wanted the Jews and Slavs dead.

Uh, actually, there were far more Jews and Slavs' used as slaves than there were exterminated.

I think that perhaps talking about hitler, or the equally vile stalin and mao(responsible for tens of millions of dead,themselves), would perhaps be best dealt with sensitively in another section or even forum.........
51,755,000 democides attributed to stalin(deaths for political reasons and not including soviet casualty figures for ww2), mentioned in reports and journals by Rummel (1990) etc
And most reports, and journals such as the Walker report give a wide ranging figure of between 32,2500,000 and 61,700,000, deaths attributed to Mao.
Grotesque characters indeed, but people on this board might have special resons for being sensitive to certain topics, even if they don't express it or pretend otherwise, so it would be more prudent to move such debates somewhere else

As you wish. We were getting pretty far off-topic anyway. (surprise, surprise!)

Just wondering: can anyone find a thread of more than 1 page that didn't go off-topic? :P

Why is that not only all topics go off-topic, but we always end up talking about how off-topic the topic has actually gone off-topic?
