Socrates.
This man upheld his right to think his own thoughts and to go where the evidence led him. He stood trial and was sentenced to death.
Now, the most powerful people do not think, have zero principles, disregard evidence, and would gladly have others die to secure their power.
Socrates was executed for being super annoying.
How annoying is it to have idiotic anti-intellectuals running nuclear superpowers?
