Most influential person of the 2010s? - Poll

[Parson Weebs]

Hi Kiwis. So, this decade is drawing to a close, so which individual has had the greatest effect on the mood/culture/economy/etc. of the past ten years. The influence can be good or negative, intentional or unintentional, and cover all kinds of fields. I've undoubtedly missed out some major figures in the poll, so feel free to discuss 'em too.

 

[Revo]

Pewdiepie, because :
-he attracts and defeat many controversies (like fiverr debacle,N-word usage,verge debacle ,etc.-thanks to exceptionals people from msm, most of the time),
-he's very helpful in promoting yt channels under 1 million subs and charities
-he respects his fans
-he's one of the bigest influencer of Internet culture
-he promotes KF / ED,when he makes video documentaries about lolcows
-his apologies are honest

Trump, I've never seen people THAT salty for one man before

 

[CheezzyMach]

Trump just for how he's completely driven Washington and Hollywood insane.

 

[Parson Weebs]

Figures such as Modi, Macron and Bolsonaro rose to prominence in the mid-to-late 2010s, but maybe they're not at their apogees of influence just yet.

 

[oldTireWater]

Zuckerberg as a representative for all the horrific ways technology has changed our society over the last ten years. Smartphones and social media have fucking WRECKED us.

 

[Autumnal Equinox]

Love him or hate him, gotta go with Trump.

I have changed my vote from Obama to Xi Jinping. Time listed the Chinaman 9 times in the 2010s. Obama was listed only 7 times.

 

[Idiotron]

Trump is a contender for obvious reasons.

According to some conservatives, Soros is literally behind EVERYTHING so he's up there.

Hillary Clinton can allegedly kill whoever she wants so she gets a shout out as well.

Can't forget Mr Pooh in China and Putin, they're always doing their thing.

Merkel and Macron fucked up Europe a bit, that has to count as influence.

Last but not least, Jeff Bezos.

Honorable mentions:
Susan at Youtube.
Mark at Facebook.

 

[Syaoran Li]

Voted for Trump, but if I could pick more than one person, I'd also pick Zuckerberg.

 

[dreamworks face]

Trump propelled himself to being president by studying Charlie Sheen's #tigerblood and #winning on twitter and co-opting that same energy for a run at the presidency.

 

[CivilianOfTheFandomWars]

I honestly think Trump. Like him or not, he has already irrevocably changed how politics and news works in the US, and that was only in the past ~4 years he’s been involved.
Now, not changed for the better exactly, that’s for sure. If you are not bleeding-heart left the media calls you a Nazi, if you are not hard right the rest call you a cuck. Fake news from both sides is just the order of the day, being a moderate is faux pas, and politics has been jammed into every corner of life with no escape in sight. If you are against a person you are seen as against whatever minorities they are, if you don’t agree with the batshit nonsense coming from L.A or New York you are a Racist Bigot Incel, and that’s only getting worse.
However, Trump has also proved that a man like him could get elected, and that’s a good thing. You no longer really need to be the standard breed of politicians to run things. Him still being in office shows just how fucking nuts and hypocritical people can get when they truly believe they are right about everything and are told “no”.
Trump has altered the entire course of US history in a short amount of time. Not many people can claim that.

Christine Weston Chandler has altered the course of universal history with the dimensional merge.

 

[Token Weeaboo]

This was a difficult choice for me between Pewdiepie and Trump. They both kept coming out on top of every situation they got themselves put it. Pewdiepie has been an entertainer for the entirety of the decade and constantly being mentioned. Except for the last few Years trump really warped and changed politics rapidly and very quickly for a single term.

 

[whatever I feel like]

Voted Merkel. That is not a good thing.

 

[CumDumpster]

I'm saying Alex Jones, as his claims keep getting proven right in this day and age.

 

[MrJokerRager]

Most influential person has to be Hillary Clinton for causing mass immigration to happen through destroying Libya, the Arab Spring, the Syrian Civil War, Pepe the frog into a mainstream name and the election of Donald Trump.

 

[COMMI3 MARK]

No Zuckerberg = No Trump
No Putin = No Trump

I voted Zuckerberg, either way its not Trump. Maybe the 2020's.

 

[Nacho Man Randy Salsa]

I'm going to go with Barack Obama. His presidency is what directly led to the rise of Trump.

 

[Unog]

I'm going with Xi because China has it's fingers in every pie imaginable.
