Graham caused some fatalities too, not at the level of a war criminal ofc, but still, he did some pretty bad damage so what i see is just an excuse to celebrate the death of someone you dislike;
If everyone is human Graham included then Kissinger is too, yet you celebrated Kissinger death, which mean you deem one less human than the other which just look hypocrisy to me, this whole rule is bullshit but it’s even more bullshit how you all enforce it and remove it as you like for certain people
You either enforce it for all or for no one, which IMO the better one is the 2nd option because the rule is just blatantly enforcing your own moral.
Just expect it for the people YOU don’t like? Policies made by these evil men can lead to death. If you make life harder for pregnant people, women, LGBTQ, etc., some of those people will commit suicide. Some of those people will die in child birth. Some of those people will see hate crimes committed against them. That doesn’t make them evil enough for you? Someone dying doesn’t erase the evil they have committed. Even those politicians that didn’t want to protect grandma during covid are pretty fucking despicable. They could have created policy that led to innocent elderly dying from a preventable condition. I would celebrate the death of all politicians that didnt do enough to protect public health. Jesus Christ, why do I need to explain this? They are literally public figures. They put themselves out there for us to judge.
Maybe we’re thinking of similar things, but I thought it took killing, not dehumanization. I mean it’s easier to convince a bunch of someones to kill someone else if you first dehumanize the someone else to the someones so I get where you’re coming from tho
Agreed. The worst people in history were all still very much human. They had internal complexity that caused them to live the lives they lived and make the mistakes they did. And those humans were terrible people whose deaths deserve celebration, because they’re shining examples of which parts of humanity we should strive to avoid emulating.
Maybe amend the rule to “celebrating death of actual human beings”. There’s one person whose death will be celebrated far and wide, for sure.
We did lift the rule temporarily when it was Kissinger. 😉
So it’s a highly inconsistent rule that also get lifted when someone the mods hate dies? Holy shit
Wasn’t just “the mods hate”. Kissinger was legit a war criminal.
As much as we all hate Graham, he was not at the same level as Kissinger. Few are.
Graham may get a footnote in future history books in the chapter on the fall of democracy in the western hemisphere.

Sorry, is there a question?
What do you mean? Do i have to wait for a question that will never come to express criticism of your mod-ing?
Removed by mod
No, you said I never answered your questions then I found a reply that does not appear to actually have any question.
And you get to determine that?
Nope, literally everyone else. Google “Kissinger war criminal”, then try “Lindsey Graham war criminal”.
The difference between them is clear. As a member of the Senate, Graham was incapable of acting on his own. Kissinger was not limited.
By the way, i wonder if you will ever reply to my replies, lol
Literally avoided both my replies like the plague
I had like 50 or 60 replies today, if they were disingenuous questions, you won’t be getting answers.
You see, JL moderates on vibes more than rules. That’s why the admins allow him to break rules and their TOS constantly.
So you decide when it applies and when it doesn’t? Sounds like this community needs a new mod with some integrity
We made an exception for an incredible war criminal, yes. Don’t expect us to do it for everyone.

Oh, there are people who LIKED Kissinger? LOL.
That’s not the point I was making and you KNOW that. Everyone loves power, and it does not look good on you.
You see why this doesn’t make it better, right?
No, he really doesn’t.
i mean while i agree, i don’t want to get into the habit of dehumanizing people (even if it feels fair play for any given specific person).
It took a whole fucking lot of dehumanization to defeat the actual historical Nazis.

Why should we humanize people who were literally fascists who dehumanized others?
who said we had to do that? i just don’t like dehumanizing.

He is, after all, a human being. A shit one at that, but still human.
