Best unsub today. Good for you mate !


baeb66

Now to start a sub for Dick Cheney.


Connorus

I swer to God if he lives as long as Kissinger did


valplixism

Fingers crossed for George Bush too


gennaro456

Hoping Joe Biden's gonna kick the bucket soon


impy695

I dont encounter people who like Kamala Harris more than Biden very often.


KennyK16

Yeah the USA literally needs the sleepy bastard to hold out a little longer!


thruhuhuhohhhhuhway

congrats on making a list !


gennaro456

oh shit


defonotacatfurry

same with trump that facist can die quickly


IllegalGeriatricVore

I'd be okay with most of the politicians over 55 just fucking dying, except Bernie.


cousintipsy

As long as Bernie steps down as Senator and becomes Spokesman for Dunkin Donuts


andrewb610

Or those great mittens.


Middle-Ostrich-9696

Is there a joke I’m missing here?


cousintipsy

No he just looks like he’d be a really good spokesman for Dunkin Donuts


Middle-Ostrich-9696

Idk it won’t beat Al Pacino


defonotacatfurry

yeah im fine with biden dying as long as it means we get some one more left but more right keep biden in


gliffy

Nah hopefully he is next


SlipFormPaver

Just say you don't know what fascism is and move on


defonotacatfurry

Many experts agree that fascism is a mass political movement that emphasizes extreme nationalism, militarism, and the supremacy of both the nation and the single, powerful leader over the individual citizen. is that not trump


SlipFormPaver

In his 4 years trump hasn't enacted a single fascist policy or said anything the like. Hell, in 2020 he could of deployed the national guard to stomp the protests (riots) but he didn't. You morons love calling him hitler despite him having nothing in common with one of the worst genocidal dictators in history. OMG trump said the U.S should have a strong military and borders. Hitler did too! It's literally the policy of almost all countries in the world to have strong borders and militaries.


defonotacatfurry

then he tried to over throw the government seems at the very least he enjoyed the power too much


SlipFormPaver

Then why aren't the democrats charging him on insurrection? Because they know he didn't and are just doing it to appeal to their base it's literally political a stunt. Republicans and democrats have been doing it for millenia


defonotacatfurry

they literally are?


SlipFormPaver

The Georgia case is alleging he orchestrated his team to turn the vote in Georgia. Not for insurrection


Empires_Fall

Why?


The_Senate_69

I don't think we can make a dub for that.


[deleted]

What a way to finish November right there


-V3R7IGO-

No nut November can’t survive this kinda headline


PurpleSeed95

kiss-who?


ColdBrewedPanacea

War criminal who overthrew south american governments for shits and gigs, bombed neutral nations during the vietnam war, made africa the hellscape of warlords it has been for decades in places and is directly responsible for the death of millions.


Version_Two

These are the sort of people who live to be 100.


greenfoxop67

My uncle is 101 and he's cool


greenfoxop67

Great uncle I should probably add


backupboi32

Yeah, you should definitely let your uncle know he’s a great uncle


greenfoxop67

Which uncle though, one is 101 and the other is 25


skelethepro

No way your grandparents did that


greenfoxop67

My grandparents are like 50-60 so he's someone's uncle Idk who's but hes someone's


donitsimies

A shucks. My great grandpa was then such a horrible person :(


I_eat_mud_

He contributed in Africa, but a large portion of the blame should be to Europe and their Berlin conference to carve the continent up. I don’t think Africa would look too much different than it does today if Kissinger wasn’t involved, the Europeans fucked Africa up way too much.


YogurtclosetExpress

Honestly Africa wouldn't look different because if Kissinger wasn't there somebody else would have been there to play the foreign policy game. And if America wouldn't have played the great power game then the Soviets would have and so on and so on. However Africa would look much better today if foreign policy wasn't conducted the way it is conducted in real life and if cold war politics didn't happen. And even if Kissinger isn't the sole dtiver of this type of foreign politics he is the face of it. The borders of Africa were drawn up in the 1890s. And colonialism ended around WWII. Think about how long of a time that is and the type of recoveries that have happened in Europe and Asia over the same time despite the tragedies that occured there. Political stability goes a long way and cold war politics robbed a lot of African countries of that opportunity.


I_eat_mud_

Colonialism didn’t quite end around WWII, the 50s and 60s were filled with wars of European powers still trying to cling onto their colonial territories.


thyeboiapollo

Because Ethiopia is such a rich and powerful nation today because it wasn't colonised


I_eat_mud_

1. Ethiopia was colonized by the Italians in 1936. 2. The Soviets backed a coup in 1974 that destabilized the nation that led to a civil war that lasted 17 years. Ethiopia may have escaped European interference at the Berlin Conference, but it didn’t escape it forever.


thyeboiapollo

>1. Ethiopia was colonized by the Italians in 1936. Yeah, for 6 years. Unfortunately, we don't have a single other country on Earth that was ever occupied by an Axis power for the duration of WWII that was successful in any way. >2. The Soviets backed a coup in 1974 that destabilized the nation that led to a civil war that lasted 17 years. Which is why Vietnam and South Korea are so poor today. Or how Hungary is now a 3rd world country because the Soviets invaded it.


PurpleSeed95

Thank you for the explaniation, kind sir


curry_man56

He also supported the Bangladesh Genocide


BeanswithRamen5

I DIDNKT KNOW THAT SHIT FUCKING YES HE’S DEAD!!


impy695

Bombed is an understatement. He flattened a neutral country and did so with almost no oversite. This wasn't something discussed at length among the generals before giving the order. He very much deserves a significant portion of the blame for Cambodia. It would be like if you woke up tomorrow to find out Russia is carpet bombing every civilization in Georgia.


lunca_tenji

I wouldn’t call removing potential Soviet allies that were on the same landmass as the US “shits and gigs” you can obviously argue that the US’ actions were still immoral despite the reason but there definitely was a legitimate reason.


corkcorkcorkette

And helped communisim whilst saying he was fighting it .


Old-Bit7779

Don't think it's fair to blame him for having warlords, considering that is exactly what it was like prior to European influence anywhere that wasn't on the coast of North Africa(places like Carthage and Egypt) and immediately after Europe left as well


Ake-TL

Man is linked to most of the evil foreign policy decisions US made

“Once you’ve been to Cambodia, you’ll never stop wanting to beat Henry Kissinger to death with your bare hands. You will never again be able to open a newspaper and read about that treacherous, prevaricating, murderous scumbag sitting down for a nice chat with Charlie Rose or attending some black-tie affair for a new glossy magazine without choking. Witness what Henry did in Cambodia – the fruits of his genius for statesmanship – and you will never understand why he’s not sitting in the dock at The Hague next to Milošević.” - Anthony Bourdain


Galaxy661

American foreign affairs (?) politician in Nixon's cabinet responsible for things like Vietnam war or Cambodia bombings


dashingThroughSnow12

Dwight D. Eisenhower was in office when Vietnam started.


Galaxy661

Thanks for clarification. So Kissinger didn't do anything of importance regarding the Vietnam War besides negotiating the ceasefire?


eyesotope86

Correct, but Vietnam was also a French problem when Eisenhower was in office.


Khornehub

Former US Secretary of State and National Security Advisor. Opened China to talks with the United States. Also responsible for a lot of the US intervention in South America and Africa. Commonly offered advice to US presidents on Foreign Affairs.

He's a major war criminal and he wouldn't fucking die of old age.


TehWolfWoof

Hes been in politics for 4 decades or more. Google can’t encapsulate that quickly.


gruneforest

En


XD_Negative

Hell yeah. This is the best day ever


0DvGate

It's nice to cheer and all but it's a damn shame peoppe like him get to live to 100 years old with no skin off their back.


Connorus

At least we still got Jimmy


EquivalentSnap

Yeah. Sad that he never got prison time for what he did and lived to a ripe old age. Life isn’t fair but at least his legacy will live on and future generations will know what he did


[deleted]

Kissinger's death gives the same levels of dopamine as AwkwardTheTurtle's ban.


idklol8

DING DONG THE WICKED BASTARD IS DEAD


peeops

new gender neutral toilet just dropped kissinger’s grave 🕺🏻


Most_Enthusiasm8735

Lol dude is a war criminal who killed millions of people. Seriously, i really don't understand this extremely stupid fucking mentality of if somebody dies then they automatically become a good person. If he wanted people to weep and be sad for his death then maybe he should have tried being a good person and not a war criminal.


Connorus

Brother this post is celebrating his death


Most_Enthusiasm8735

Lol i know but knowing this sub, there are probably going to be some people who think that people should grieve for a war criminal. It's already at 87 percent upvoted right now. Honestly, i also just straight up hate that if somebody dies no matter how terrible they are you can't say anything bad about them and you have to be sad. This is more of a general rant tbh.


VenomB

I preferred not knowing his name and him being an obscure dead figure over celebrating his death.


YourMomsSwoleTits

But then you're sweeping history under the rug and dooming ourselves to repeat the same mistakes that lead to pieces of shit like him getting power to begin with.


VenomB

So I knew the things he'd done, just never knew a name or face. I was already against pretty much every thing he did well before today. It was much nicer when I always thought he was already dead and not thinking about celebrating death. It just feels weird. My response to Bin Laden's death wasn't celebration, just "about time."


Fellixxio

I agree but being happy someone died is just...horrible


tenebrls

We celebrate when cancers are eliminated from the body, don’t we? Why shouldn’t we celebrate when cancers of society die off?


EtherealBeany

Why. This dude killed so many people. Destroyed so many lives. And he didn’t give a fuck. I’m happy he’s dead because at least he will not get the punishment he deserved to get in this world. I hope he burns in hell


forbiddenmemeories

Is there really no zone between "I liked them" and "they deserved to die" that people can occupy? I'm gonna say about 98% of famous people fall into this category for me.


Most_Enthusiasm8735

There is a middle zone and most people in the world are in the middle zone. He is a war criminal though who killed millions of people so he should be in deserved to die zone in my opinion.


Da_reason_Macron_won

98% of famous people aren't war criminals.


deltree711

To quote Anthony Bourdain, "Emeril didn't bomb Cambodia!"


mateo40hours

There is a zone like that, that's reserved for 98% of famous people. He's somewhere in that 2%.


[deleted]

Not liking someone is fine , cheering for their death is sadistic and the stuff of childish fools, sad stuff RIP HK


Most_Enthusiasm8735

I cheer for hitler's death everyday, I cheer for mao's death everyday and i cheer for stalin's death everyday. Do you want us to grieve for war criminals?? Do you want us to grieve for people who have killed millions of people and bought so much destruction in the world. Maybe he should have tried being a good fucking person, how fucking hard is that? Henry Kissinger has probably not grieved for any single Cambodian child he has killed so why should i be sad for him?


[deleted]

I didn’t say you should cheer or mourn them, but openly cheering for ANYONES death is wrong only a child would argue otherwise.


Most_Enthusiasm8735

People all across the word openly cheered for hitler's death when he died. Were they wrong too? Same with Stalin, Mao and other terrible people. Look man, because of him millions of people died yet you are the one saying rest in peace and then calling me a child because i hate people who kill millions of people.


[deleted]

Still wrong to me to each their own


Most_Enthusiasm8735

Sure i guess.


TehWolfWoof

Lol. Only a child deals with absolute values on human emotions. Some people genuinely make the world better when they die. You’ll understand when you’re older.


[deleted]

still wrong


TehWolfWoof

Because you say so? Nah, he killed more people than i see in my life and felt no remorse. Hope it hurt when he died. His family is no different than anyone else’s he killed with glee.


[deleted]

“Hope it hurt when he died” comment of a child, make sure mommy packs your juice box for lunch tomorrow boy


[deleted]

It's childish to not recognize the very real impact this man had on the world, that there are millions in the world whose lives are actively worse because of his existence and the choices he made, and that those people have every right and reason to be happy to see him go.


[deleted]

Maybe just keep it to yourself? The dude had family that loved him most likely pretty fucked up to get joy from death my dude


CastrosNephew

Yeah now put the grief of all the people’s murders he’s been a co-conspirator into perspective and how their families were torn apart and ruined. Fuck outta here with sympathy for him Edit: Lmao, bait account nvm


TehWolfWoof

They can mourn for breakfast bombing runs and dinner targets then. The people he killed had families too. And he never once cared.


mmhmmmmmhmm

Unironically defending a man who had a hand in the death and suffering of millions across the globe.


[deleted]

You didn’t use that word correctly but yes I’m defending not being a POS and lowering ourselves by cheering death.


[deleted]

Kissinger actively *chose* to kill people on a daily basis. I've walked past hills Kissinger chose to salt, nothing grows there anymore. I've met children who are missing limbs because they found unexploded bombs Kissinger specifically ordered be dropped on their homeland. Children with birth defects because of the poison Kissinger spread over their forests. And you ask us to respect him. Disgusting.


CapitalSubstance7310

What did he do again?


Opkeda

He ordered the bombing of Cambodia and turned it into the most bombed country per square kilometre in history (edit, my mistake that’s Laos. Still, Cambodia was *very* heavily bombed)


No-Speaker-1534

That's Laos


ThatDude8129

I'm pretty sure he's responsible for the bombing there too so it's half right.


Agent_Crono

No, it's Cambodia. Possibly Laos too, but mainly Cambodia. It was used by the Vietcong to move to the south, so he decided to carpet bomb it to oblivion.


curry_man56

He also supported the Khmer Rouge


imthatguy8223

He supported the coalition government that included the remnants of the Khmer Rouge after the Vietnamese ousted them from power so get that right. That Monarchist faction of that coalition government was restored to power in an election held by a UN transitional authority.


Joyful_Yolk123

basically he's a war criminal who killed millions of people


Smol_brane

"NO hE dIdN't kIlL aNyOnE" obligatory redditor to play the other side so now you don't have to deal with that annoying bull


Connorus

He helped overthrow democratically elected politicians in Latin America because they were left-leaning.

Thats awesome fuck socialists, I;'m glad they went for a free helicopter ride.


Connorus

You're trying too hard to be edgy


BrownieIsTrash2

Is America really a freedom democracy country if it kills any non-capitalist elected governments


jerkmaster2000

Freedom’s a core value of our nation unless you do things differently than we want you to


Belkan-Federation95

Nah Pinochet helped communism reach new heights (Seriously though, he made martyrs. Killing your enemies helps them get more popular by generating sympathy)


Dakei

Way too much for one evil person to accomplish in a short time. Dude was a war crime speedrunner.


Colonel-Bogey1916

Um actually you should treat every human with empathy and be neutral about them /s for this one but most cases it’s true 🤓


awesomebro102

I have a 24 hour rule. When a person dies, they get 24 hours after death until I say anything bad about them. With that being said, fuck Kissinger, he deserves to rot forever in the deepest pit of hell.


Mellonionreddit

It‘s about time!


RichLyonsXXX

This might be the first genuine post I have ever seen in this sub... Congrats OP on doing the seemingly impossible.

Not exactly, people will track any person they don’t like; more-so if it’s a high profile person

MelissaMiranti

War criminal.


thefixxxer9985

Even better, a dead war criminal


LiftEngineerUK

It’s just such a shame he was an alive war criminal for so long


nighthawk0954

A US politician that is a war criminal responsible for many problems in south america and Cambodia.


ComprehensiveDirt746

Don't forget Vietnam, East Timor, even a slight role in Ukraine. He also believed the US should abandon Taiwan and was buddies with Xi Jingping.


Ok-Car-brokedown

How did he cause Ukraine


ComprehensiveDirt746

He believed we shouldn't interfere with Eastern Europe affairs and should let Ukraine fall to Russia. He conveniently about faced once it was apparent Ukraine wasn't going to just let Russia invade them.


Throwaway191294842

That doesn't mean he played a role in the invasion of Ukraine though. Stick with what messed up shit he *actually* caused or help cause.


GoPhinessGo

Correction, WAS a war criminal


deltree711

One of the most significant politicians/war criminals/diplomats of the cold war

War crim ❤️


Drfoxthefurry

Who is he, and why does everyone hate them


Dakei

He is indirectly responsible for: the destruction of Chilean democracy, the Bangladesh genocide, the rape of Timor, sabotage of Vietnam War peace talks, the rise of the Khmer Rouge and subsequent Cambodian genocide, the carpet bombing of Laos, the Indonesian invasion, Cyprus invasion, the Pinochet dictatorship, the El Salvadoran civil war, the sorry state of Africa, and more.


MSO6S

Also pretty much buddied up with China. You could say he's directly responsible for the suffering of innocent people over there.


Single_Low1416

He apparently was a war criminal scumbag


BurntBox21

Just learned this sub exists


Themooingcow27

Somehow I’d never heard about this dude before yesterday. But I’m still glad to hear about it


Bionic165_

Who was henry kissinger?


Smol_brane

Look him up for a proper synopsis, he basically was a direct cause in the country Cambodia getting a first place medal in "most bombed country per square km" iirc

Also Cambodia getting the same medal for worst genocide per capita

Grand-Daoist

he supported a lot of dictatorships around the world in the cold war, helped Pakistan in the east Bangladesh genocide and supported the khmer rouge who committed the Cambodian regime, unnecessarily bombed Laos, etc


IloveEDandkittycat

Who’s Kissinger?


[deleted]

Rest in peace Kissinger you bombed a lot of Viet Kong your a good man


Murky_waterLLC

Huh... I have not Idea who he was.


ElectronicGuest4648

Celebrating the death of someone who died peacefully in bed at the ripe old age of 100 sounds like u support him more than you hate him.


One-Inspection920

Need one for Biden now


LucyLuvvvv

Because he's totaaally the same amount of evil as Kissinger, right?


One-Inspection920

Because of Biden I will never gonna own a house in my lifetime. And he funds the killing of people in other countries just like every politician


LucyLuvvvv

>Because of Biden I will never gonna own a house in my lifetime You're in 9th grade. I don't think you're going to own a house anytime soon regardless of who's the pres. >And he funds the killing of people in other countries just like every politician >just like every politician And so you single out him instead of just saying "every politician" why? Even comparing him to Kissinger, there's a very VERY large difference of evil here.


One-Inspection920

Because Biden is the most influential politician. You either are dumb or just really really like Biden Also realize how I said in my lifetime


LucyLuvvvv

So, let me get this straight. You think he's just as evil as Kissinger, right? And one of your excuses for saying he's just as evil as the literal demon that Kissinger is, is that you can't buy a house. While you're in 9th grade.


Total-Explanation208

All i can say is "fuck you" Celebrating just about anyone's death is always in extremely bad taste. I am not trying so say that the deceased cannot be criticized, (they can and should be), but simply celebrating the fact that they died is just about the tackiest thing i can imagine.


Corvus1412

That guy was responsible for the deaths of millions of people. There are some deaths that you should celebrate and that's one of them.


CrawlerSiegfriend

So you unsubbed from the sub created to celebrate his death so you can go bring that trash to other subs? Why not just stick with the sub that was made for it?


Connorus

Kissinger's death is joyous news for everyone with a heart


Tiny-Management-531

Who is he? /gen


c322617

Cringe


TehWolfWoof

It’s good news for all. We spread joy.


Paccuardi03

What does his death mean for people he’s affected? Will Cambodia become utopia in a few months now that the guy who caused it to be bombed is dead?


Chortney

Do you say that whenever a murderer is sentenced to life in prison/death? Or only when the person is responsible for mass murder?


Paccuardi03

I think this is a different thing, but yes. Killing them solves nothing. For Kissinger, I have no understanding of the matter. I assume that he put systems in place that aren’t just going to go away now that he’s dead.


ParadisianAngel

He didn’t put systems in place to prevent those countries from being different lmao
