    It absolutely rules that RS had this locked and loaded.

    Really sucks that this world historical monster died unpunished after living a long and happy life, though.

      Nah, he was the kind of old bastard that couldn’t be happy even if he was on a direct serotonin injection

      He probably died of his body finally going to war against itself out of the sheer old man spite we wish will go with the boomers as we joke about it all dying off.

      Fairly sure he did some work at google with their ai team before he died so won’t be surprised if they implanted him in an ai surrogate so he can continue to cause suffering through our information networks. Kind of like a haunted internet

        Kissinger would be the best possible test subject for a prototype tech lich.

        They can transfer his undead consciousness into whatever tech abomination is supposed to upload people to immortality. Kissinger’s jet black soul will make the process seamless.

    A well spoken man, who reached his boiling point with existence a fair bit to soon, always had a lot to say about Kissinger. An excerpt from a book “about” culinary tourism from Anthony Bourdain, if anyone wasn’t aware…

      The fact you lot are more concerned about a guy who had no political influence for 40 years and is now dead, while turning away from the cunts that are fucking up our society up today shows how weak as piss you lot are.

        Henry Kissinger has absolutely still had political influence for the past 40 years. Just because he hasn’t held official positions doesn’t mean he wasn’t still incredibly influential.

          No he hasn’t. After he left his role in the state department he went into non-profits which try to influence policy.

          That’s so far removed from policy making I may as claim I set policy because I know my reports are in briefings which go to policy makers.

          Which by association, I’m a mass murderer based on the sentiment of Lemmy at this moment.
