For anyone that doesn’t know about Death Note it’s a fictional notebook from a death god. If you write someone’s name in it while picturing thier face they die. You can also manipulate thier actions and method of death to some extent.

Death note rules.

      Strongly disagree with the Netanyahu one. It would make him a martyr and create more problems than it fixes.

      Just replace islamic with zionist and you’re good

      I’d put Putin and Netanyahu above Trump. Let the hard right see it coming. They would believe it was a coincidence, continue on with Musk. Let them see the circle tighten. Hit Kim Jong-un and Xi to let them know it’s not a Western thing.

      Roll on with the AfD actors, Nazis be damned. Still not cluing in? Start with the remainder of your list, roll.

      Can we do a mass hit on the January 6th rebels? No? OK. Start with Henry “Enrique” Tarrio, 39, of Miami, Florida. And never stop until… Every. Last. Motherfucking. One. Of. Them. Is. Dead.

      Spare Trump. Leave him shaking in his high-heeled loafers. Let him live in FEAR.

        Yeah, to actually affect any real change, it needs to send a message. While freak accidents would make for great memes, they don’t send the “this is a warning; nobody is untouchable. You could be next if you don’t clean up your act” message that will actually cause lasting change.

        Freak accidents can be hand waved away. Conspiracy theorists would go wild, but the ruling elites wouldn’t actually change anything. You want something that can’t be explained away as anything but a targeted and coordinated attack.

        If you want to send a message, maybe have them all simultaneously choke on a 50 cent coin. It’s common enough that anyone can get their hands on one, but uncommon enough that you basically need to seek them out. That would at least send a “money bad” message. But be sure it’s something consistent, to ensure the message is actually received.

      For some unknowable reason, I am reminded of this exchange in an X-Files episode about a psychic who could supposedly predict people’s deaths.

      Psychic: You know, there are worse ways to go, but I can’t think of a more undignified one than autoerotic asphyxiation.

      Mulder: Why are you telling me that?

    Elon Musk, death from asphyxiation being up Trumps ass for too long.

    Followed by Trump, death from rectal bleeding.

    It would all be on live television.

    The first name I write down is my own. For I know what I will do with it, and I know that while I would start with the notion of doing only what i feel must I know i will grow corrupt. On the first page I will write detailed instructions disposing of this book, and then I will sign it, knowing I have literally signed my own death warrant, hoping that my will would be carried out that the book would be encased in a block of cement and buried deep.

    Then I will start writing names.

    And keep writing names.

    Until that last day.

    There are many in this world I would see removed from it For my niece’s sake. For all our sakes…

    There would be no statements. No declarations. There would simply be. Murder, for that is what this is. me deciding that others should be denied their lives. Maybe the world improves with them removed from it. Hard to say. I clearly believe so given what I would be doing.

        No, but there is a limit to what any mortal man could do. I could become a tyrant, but as kira learned. that has limits and i do not live in a world where people would fall over themselves to make mistakes in my favor.

        I would do what I could, and then stare the shinigami in the eye as the hourglass runs out.

          I would also do what i could but i find it depressing that, honestly, this is what we (humans) are. Greed is deep in our core and i don’t think we will ever beat it.
          A man will betray a thousand of his own kin to get ahead of everyone else and another would do the same just to lick his boots.

    A lot of people in the comments here are taking the high ground. “I wouldn’t use it. I’m not a killer. I’m better than that.”

    But by not using it you are even more of a killer. This is a trolley problem. If you pull the right switch one evil psychopathic murderer dies, if you don’t pull the switch thousands of their innocent victims die. If you have the power to make that decision then the responsibility for the deaths falls on your shoulders, whether it’s one death or thousands.

    So yeah, I’d use it. I’d start at the top of the psychopathic killer list and move down. I doubt I’d have to wonder when to stop. There are so many. But once they got the message I’d be more moderate and only use it when necessary.

      The deaths would need some spectacle and consistency to send a message. That could probably be arranged but I wonder what method would be the most effective.

        Maybe if you used “electrocuted by a bolt of lightning” or “turned into a pillar of salt” or some other widely recognized form of divine retribution. That may be enough to distract investigators and throw them off your scent. But if not you are just revealing information that will lead the investigators right to you.

      If that’s how you want to see it.

      I was browsing popular anime and saw Death Note and just felt like seeing what people respond with.

      I have my own thoughts and expectations of myself but wanted to see what others would do.

      So far only one person would kill for direct personal gain. Most would kill for “betterment” of a nation. The greater good so to speak.

      Murder is still murder.

      What about killing in a war? Is that murder?

      What about killing to stop/prevent war?

      Where do people draw the line. It seems like anonymous strangers here are more willing to end a life to “save lives.”
