I’ll remember his graceful civility when he lied to the UN about WMDs which later led to 1 million plus dead in Iraq.

We should never forget how he had the courage to censor and silence the whistleblowers in his unit after they sexually assaulted and murdered 500+ Vietnamese civilians in the My Lai Massacre.

The division put him directly in charge of the cover up, it’s probably how he first got noticed as a guy who will say whatever he’s told to.

War Criminals, every fucking one of these assholes.

Even (especially) Biden, who in the 2000s deliberately tried to bury the No Gun Ri massacre in Korea where the US opened fire on any and all refugees fleeing the combat zone with artillery and CAS.

Also lied about his knowledge of Iran-Contra(revolutionary), even though it was proven he read secret documents about it, saying under oath in 1987 “To my recollection, I don’t have a recollection.”

He must’ve been trying to break the previous Secretary of State’s record of 500,000 dead Iraqis.

Asked in 2011 how he would define the characteristics of effective leadership, Colin Powell answered: “Trust.”

Lol - oh I’m sorry neowibrals, are we doing an incivility celebrating the death of a war criminal? Is it verwy wude of us to express glee that the person instrumental to hundreds of thousands if not millions of civilian deaths is dead himself?

God I wish someone would shove those nerds in a locker.

it’s millions. roughly 2 million in Iraq

*bush killed between 1.5 million and 3.4 million iraqis because saddam tried to sell oil for euros instead of dollars, which threatened the dollar’s status as the global reserve currency. fuck your civility, /r/neoliberal lurkers. fuck the putrid stench of your moral cowardice and your giggling, above-it-all, performative pseudo-nuance. there’s no fucking nuance. nuance 2 million dead civilians back to life you fucking scum. I hope covid comes for you next.

Hey you fucking nerds, Powell is dead because you’re too scared to push the federal intervention button. Maybe if you didn’t defend a shit mode of production and a shit ideology he would still be alive. Because the government would have intervened to keep the infections down and had us vaccinated a long time ago. The even funnier part is that he had access to all the good healthcare stuff that we don’t, and it didn’t save him. Because as long as you don’t give a fuck about poor people, and keep acting like it’s personal responsibility, then no amount of healthcare will save them.

-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --

-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --

-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --
