“He prolonged & expanded the Vietnam War with the bombing of Cambodia and Laos, killing hundreds of thousands, perhaps millions, of innocent people. He helped empower genocidal militaries in Pakistan & Indonesia. He enabled juntas that overthrew democracies in Chile & Argentina. He’s often called a war criminal…”

@MarkRuffalo Oh, you really got my hopes up from the excerpt, but no, it's just a birthday party - the devil has not yet come to collect his most faithful and effective servant.
@TomSwirly @MarkRuffalo I just experienced the exact opposite of the feeling I get when I see someone like David Attenborough trending, panic for a second, then get a rush of relief that it's just their birthday.
@MarkRuffalo Surprising many that he's still alive, Kissinger said Ukraine should cede territory to Russia so the war Russia started would end. Gift WaPo article: https://wapo.st/440kPj9
Kissinger says Ukraine should cede territory to Russia to end war

Speaking at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, Kissinger urged the West to not seek an embarrassing defeat for Russia in Ukraine, warning it could worsen Europe’s long-term stability.

@MarkRuffalo I always forget he's still alive, but a very well written article with real journalism. Thanks for sharing!
@MarkRuffalo Kissinger is the US personified - murdering innocents in the name of saving lives. No different than China or Russia (or any authoritarian government).
@MarkRuffalo For those out of the loop, Kissinger literally leaked LBJs plan for ceasing the bombing of north Vietnam to Nixon who then subsequently sabotaged any chance of that by relaying that information to the south Vietnamese president, and that's just the tip of the iceberg. Fucking disgusting warmonger who was entirely in pursuit of political power.
