It was debated whether X should have been made Person of the Century
for his impact on the twentieth century. The argument was based
on Time's explicit criterion that the person chosen should have the
greatest impact on this century, for better or worse.

the article ”The Necessary Evil?”

murderous figures, stretching back to before Genghis Khan. The only
difference was technology: X went about his cynical carnage with all the

generosity?” And ultimately , Y was the unanimous choice.
