I cant even concieve of the type of shit someone must be getting up to to find themselves writing this list with Richard Nixon above René Descarte, John Locke, Joan of Arc, and King Fucking Arthur. Even putting Nixon above fellow US President, Truman, who authorized two nuclear attacks on another country, is beyond wild to me.
You'd keep Descartes on the list?
Besides major discoveries in math, he's the founder of modern western philosophy. His work laid the foundation not just for calculus, but for systems of physics and metaphysics uncoupled from the Church.
Probably not, but if the list were infinite, Descartes would go above Nixon, mainly for Cartesian coordinate geometry which isn't even really the thing he's known for.
