Buddha if he really existed.

Those would be in the top 10 for sure.

There is pretty widespread academic consensus that Jesus and Muhammad were really historical figures.

That doesn't mean a thing.
There was once widespread academic consensus the Earth was flat and the center of the Universe also.

You would also have to include not just great people but infamously evil people too. It's list listing the GOAT athletes. It's never just one it really isn't. There's much more than 100 influential people in the history of human civilization!

There is an amazing feature on the internet where you have the capability to scroll past links that are of little interest.

There wasn't any evidence for those theories. It was just accepted as fact.

Same thing. It's just some people saying something. Skepticism is a feature not a bug.

George Washington was known as "Town Destroyer" by Native Americans after he ordered the razing of Indian villages. Plus of course he was a slave owner. When will the Washington Post change their name to no longer honor such a man?

Which is why this is so idiotic. Very few people of today would be qualified to mention the most influential people EVER. And you can only name 100. It's almost impossible.

Hitler and Osama Bin Laden certainly changed our world trajectories.
