Sent this to a lib friend of mine. Hasnt responded yet. He previously harshly scolded me for saying I wouldn't mourn Carter's death. He also complained abour leftists speaking horribly about world leaders. I probably shouldnt burn bridges but Im just so fucking mad at libs continuing to prioritize civility politics over actually doing or saying anything meaningful. Not to self-aggrandize obviously Im not doing activism feuding with my friends lmao. Anyway I guess Im still angry and I couldn't help needling him. I probably need to grow up and let shit go lol.

gonna be honest, I'm not celebrating all that much. sure, it's great to see a ghoul die, I won't contest that or rain on anyone's parade. but the cancer was a year too late. the genocide went on uncontested, he's going to die an old man's death at an old man's age surrounded by family after a very long career of destruction. it's a very hollow "victory", and I say "victory" because in the end, he won. he'll die to the cancer, but he won. it's like Kissinger's death. yes I was happy, yes it's good that a ghoul died, but he lived to 100 or some shit after a long career of murder, completely uncontested. he won.

usually when i say this kinda thing i leave it without the correction so they can respond to it and then go "ooh sorry, typo, i meant less". it's way funnier that way

I mean at some point in time these people need to reflect on the fact that they worship and defend genocidal war criminals. They're supposedly smart and well educated enough to understand what's going on in the world. I mean it's very simple, pissrael needs money and resources to commit genocide, biden provides the money and resources to pissrael, ergo Biden supports genocide. These people should really be ashamed of themselves for being worse than the average german bystander when Shitler was in power, if anything, since they're actively defending the bastard against their supposed friends.

I mean, I dont talk to a lot of the liberals in my life anymore (there are more reasons than that if we break it down, but still)

shrug-outta-hecks

I dont think you did anything wrong.

[–] Wheaties@hexbear.net 13 points 2 weeks ago

The small upside to Trump in office again is that liberals can't write this off as a one-off fluke. Like, when they insist "The office of the presidency is supposed to be respected! You're supposed to take it seriously, the title comes with gravitas!". No. No, it was never respectable, it's always been like this you just never listened beyond the tone and cadence to hear the actual words being said, never really considered the actions being taken. But liberals don't wanna hear it. Now I don't even have to try to make that futile argument. I can just point to the flim-flamming humbug and say, sorry, but he really is the most American president.

Why the fuck should you mourn Jimmy Carter's death? Was he taken from us too soon or something?

[–] coacoamelky@lemm.ee 3 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

This feels like a highly emotional message. Could there be something more significant happening in your personal life?

[–] AOCapitulator@hexbear.net 5 points 2 weeks ago

its happening in all of our lives, have you not noticed the whole decaying global capitalist hegemony thing?

Why are you friends with liberals
