fossilesqueDr. Henry Kissinger Dies at Age 100
REST IN PISS
4 million deaths can be directly attributed to this asshole. Many, many, many more indirectly. He was the last member of the Nixon cabinet still alive.
CosmonauticusCan’t wait until it snows after they bury him so I can write my name when I piss on his grave
robocallDoes human piss make green grass die?
Bust out the Crown and Coke, bitches, we got a new Cambodian holiday!
gregorumEach shit, ya bastard
Shit is too good for him.
Perfect example of ‘Only the good die young.’
Finally
Damn that graphic on Mobile. “Kissinger dies, YAHOO!”
“Arroooooo!” feels more appropriate
👍Maximum Derek👍To early to declare today a national holiday?
soren446Can I use my floating holiday for this? Would rather not work hungover
Tell HR that I approved it.
Thanks bro, you a real one
“I've never wished a man dead, but I have read some obituaries with great pleasure” - Clarence Darrow
I’ve never understood this line of thinking. Can someone explain why there’s a “don’t speak ill of the dead” sentiment?
Death is the great equalizer and I definitely celebrate when people who think themselves and act higher than their fellow humans die.
It is said ‘don’t speak ill of the dead’ because they are no longer present to defend themselves.
In this case the man is so steeped in evil that there is only ill to be said about him.
agent_flounderIndeed. Thee millions whose death he is responsible for couldn’t defend themselves, either so it only seems fair to say Kissinger’s is a small spark of good news in this grim world he shaped and darkened.
I don’t think it really applies to mass murders. It is more like regular people who kinda suck.
This quote is about never wishing a man dead. Clarence Darrow was a famous late 19th to early 20th century litigator who vehemently opposed the death penalty. He’d never wish anyone dead, he’s fundamentally opposed to death as a punishment, but that doesn’t mean he’s sad when a bad person dies.
And the world was forever lighter for it.
starbreakerThe arc of history just bent ever so sightly toward justice.
Progress happens one death at a time. :)
I know, and it's often tempting to hurry things along, but Death is a lady and it's rude to rush her.
I mean, I wouldn’t mind helping out in certain cases.
No you take a break honey, I got this one.
I don’t know that I agree.
If anything, culture has become more in line with Kissinger’s ideals, not less.
Kissinger won in life. It’s that simple.
At least he got the same prize in the end as every other human who ever has and ever shall draw breath on this globe we curse.
Feast well, worms.
deegeeseThere are going to be some long lines to piss on that grave.

About damn time. This is how you know karma isn't real.
DarkGamerThe Yale University historian Greg Grandin, author of the biography Kissinger’s Shadow, estimates that Kissinger’s actions from 1969 through 1976, a period of eight brief years when Kissinger made Richard Nixon’s and then Gerald Ford’s foreign policy as national security adviser and secretary of state, meant the end of between three and four million people. That includes “crimes of commission,” he explained, as in Cambodia and Chile, and omission, like greenlighting Indonesia’s bloodshed in East Timor; Pakistan’s bloodshed in Bangladesh; and the inauguration of an American tradition of using and then abandoning the Kurds.

Thank goodness this is Lemmy, not R*ddit. I’m not gonna go check, but I can only imagine the mods over there are treating the thread like Kissinger treated Cambodia.
So I was in a good enough mood to check it out and the current mood is celebratory. I didn’t see any removed comments unless they hide them completely now.
Huh, I guess the mods are asleep. Nevertheless, glad to hear it!
Yeah, is it cool if I bring the banners celebrating the death of Pat Robertson along?
Welp, guess it’s time to open the champagne bottle I got specifically for this occasion. Rest in piss, you monster.
We broke open some beers!! :) Cheers from afar!!
Cognac cask finish? That sounds delightful!
Absolutely! It’s wonderful.
Cheers! Cracking open a cold one now while the bottle chills :)
Had a Crown and Coke for my Cambodian friends. Thinking about having Banh Bao for dinner.
And all it took was giving up both Carters.
Both? Jimmy isn’t dead.
From pictures yesterday he might as well be. Poor guy looks like a husk.
