“I have never wished a man dead, but I have read some obituaries with great pleasure.”
–Abraham Lincoln
Wishing some men dead is perfectly reasonable
When it comes to criminally corrupt untouchables, actually murdering them is perfectly reasonable.
Obviously I’d prefer for them to rot in prison for life, but murdering a murderer to stop them from murder is completely justified, and I’m tired of everyone acting like it’s not.
I just want them gone. I don’t care if death is how they get there. Society can just turn on them and have their assets siezed as they rapidly fade into obscurity, or they can be tossed in a jail and largely left to rot, save for some cases of extreme reconditioning.
I won’t wish death on anyone. But sometimes, it does feel like the most readily accessible means to a good end.
As per tradition, Rolling Stone’s article: ‘Dick Cheney, Iraq war architect and “War on Terror” mastermind, dead at 84’.
From the producers of ‘Henry Kissinger, War Criminal Beloved by America’s Ruling Class, Finally Dies’ and ‘Henry Kissinger, Notorious War Criminal, Lauded By Media’.
He underwent a successful heart transplant in 2012.
I’m an organ donor, but my ghost-self would be so mad if I died and my heart went to Dick fucking Cheney.
“I have never killed a man, but I have read many an obituary with great pleasure” - Clarence Darrow.
This appears to be almost a quote from Clarence Darrow which has been misattributed to multiple other historical figures over the years.

Is this the standard maneuver for this? Have I been doing it wrong all this time?
Keeping your thumb out helps them reach moral superiority.

The oath is important and sounds good. But it’s also extremely simplistic. No definition of what “enemy” means. For the armed forces, maybe you could say said enemies would be those attacking and occupying territory.
We’re not paying them to attack the people who won the last election. You have a problem with that, you should talk to the 10 million or so people that made that happen. Trump didn’t take over in a coup, we handed him the country.

My day’s already off to a good start.
Seriously whatever else happens today this is a big win
84 years late but we’ll take it I guess.
He really deserves most of the blame for what happened under lil bush…
And quite a lot of the blame for setting up the republicans to embrace Trumpism.
Eh, he was a continuation of what Papa Bush did with Reagan…
And that is almost exactly what Cheney did with Lil Bush, and Miller is doing with trump now.
Whether or not Cheney was pulling the strings while Reagan was in office… I’m not sure, but I’d say it was ex-CIA director Papa Bush who came up with this scheme.
I like my Lemmy feed’s sense of timing 😁
Oh, I assumed both were posted after his death
Yeah, what I mean is that I saw the meme one before this one and that’s how I prefer it 😁

Yeah I thought he was 84 like 25 years ago.
Evil ages poorly I guess
OOOOOO, do tRump next!!!
Is the guy he shot in the face still alive?
Nope
But he was sorry for getting shot in the face.
Actually according to the hunting guide staff the person who shot that guy was a 20yo hooker. Dick was just covering for her.
Lol.
Aww, poor baby. Taken too soon. He’d just gotten old enough to qualify for presidency too!
Toilets and papers to his families.
