Fascist, pro-Putin, corrupt politician who had an involvement in the mafia murders of the 1990s, and who often engaged in sex parties with minors—Silvio Berlusconi dead at 86

Would someone please tell me why I’m supposed to talk kindly about someone just because they died ?

@flexghost This is how I think I’ll feel when Kissinger bites it. You already know the reporting will be incredibly in favor of him, and I truly despise it.

@belbottoms he’s already lived a long full successful life. He won. Same with Murdoch.

@flexghost I’m fully aware. The fact that he passed 100 years old instead of being assassinated in the 80s is truly the mark of an unjust world.

@belbottoms @flexghost I feel Murdoch has been more of a personal malign influence than Kissinger’s realpolitik.

@dikfraser @flexghost Murdoch has certainly used his vast personal fortune to influence politics towards a very reactionary and fascist tune that allows him to keep his wealth. Kissinger quite literally signed death warrants for millions for decades
