Rich, white, old, conservative billionaires

[–] Lemminary@lemmy.world 53 points 3 weeks ago (3 children)

Don't forget homophobic, xenophobic, racist, misogynist, evil, and pedophilic.

[–] Empricorn@feddit.nl 61 points 3 weeks ago

"Conservative" was the 4th word.

[–] ILikeBoobies@lemmy.ca 11 points 3 weeks ago

He already said rich

But but...

Also remember that two of those elderly madmen were voted in.

They're not the cause of their respective countries' problems, they're a symptom.

The tidalwave of misery they unleash unto this world is something their countrymen wanted.

[–] onslaught545@lemmy.zip 23 points 3 weeks ago (17 children)

Well, Trump and friends rigged the election, so I wouldn't say it's what the countrymen wanted.

These three played the American left like a fiddle in order to make it splinter and let trump get power back. What’s worse is Americans were warned they would do it

[–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 7 points 3 weeks ago

with the help of rigging the election, and voter suppression. the one on the right, rigged his way in the first place.

[–] RaivoKulli@sopuli.xyz 4 points 3 weeks ago

They all were, initially. Putin just has had time to cement his rule so much that elections don't matter

They know they won't live much longer and they want to burn it all down on the way out. Why do we let them?

[–] coyootje@lemmy.world 14 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

Unfortunately it seems that evil has a way of sticking around for way longer then you'd expect, kinda like weeds in your garden.

[–] Quill7513@slrpnk.net 6 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

there are people alive today who think mccarthyism failed not because it was inherently flawed, racist, and wrong, but because they stopped too soon. until we are all free, none of us are free. hope for the future lies in caring for children and nurturing in them a better vision for the future than the present we've been given. we have to make propaganda that they will refine and pass on, too. there needs to be generational continuity about the importance of class solidarity across arbitrary differences like race, gender, inherited cultural origins, and sexual orientation

Evil will only last as long as Good let's it. Evil people are supposed to be cut short or else they live for far longer than they should. Average conservative should have the same lifespan and sudden end as Andrew Breitbart.

Remove the white part and add Xi and Kim

[–] ILikeBoobies@lemmy.ca 9 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Kim’s sphere of influence isn’t that big

And don't forget King Salman of Saudi Arabia.

Just because some powerful people aren't in the news all the time doesn't mean they're not doing things in the background that effect the world.

Also, there's something close to 400,000 people dead now so far in Yemen and people barely pay attention to it.

Poor Xi is feeling left out, he's kinda white too :(

[–] teslasaur@lemmy.world 10 points 3 weeks ago

Bolsonaro would like a word.

And the ayatollah

And the Royal family in Saudi Arabia

And most african countries.

But that doesn't fit the story this OP wants to tell.

[–] SCmSTR@lemmy.blahaj.zone 16 points 3 weeks ago

It's incredible how: everybody lets them.

[–] Linktank@lemmy.today 14 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

Make sure to keep making it about race, really helps your cause. It's a class war.

Erdogan would fit well into that frame too, although he is only a regional misfit.

[–] Rothe@piefed.social 9 points 3 weeks ago

Don't forget the handful of billionaires behind them.

[–] muzzle@lemmy.zip 8 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

To be fair, Putin is trying to avoid a painful and undignified death.

the one on the right responsible for the other 2's rise to power. although lesser effect on old benny

[–] apfelwoiSchoppen@lemmy.world 7 points 3 weeks ago

Those three die and nothing changes measurably. They are symptoms of larger problems/hegemonic monsters.

The US is still a tyrant controlling global relationa for its own benefit.

Israel will still be the US's proxy ethnostate hellbent on genocide.

Russia will still be attempting to assert its will through strongman efforts using their nuclear arsenal as poker ante.

Africa never had problems with black men clinging to power to avoid prison/death...

South America never had problems with Hispanic men clinging to power to avoid prison/death...

[–] ScoffingLizard@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 3 weeks ago

Axis of evil.

[–] Sam_Bass@lemmy.world 4 points 3 weeks ago

With totally evil black hearts
