Ah, Lindsey graham, still giving idiots around the world hope that they too could be a US senator one day.

  1. We have 2000kg guided munitions now, we don't need to nuke Gaza. As barbaric as that seems, we really have moved on pass nukes.

  2. Nuking Gaza would mean radiation for everyone else. Including Israel. Generations of Jewish people would battle cancer for 2-4 generations.

  3. They are children you bloody nutter. What is seriously the worst thing a 6 year old can do that would warrant a nuke? Unless you have blueprints of a cyborg-ninja 6 year old, I don't want to hear it.

  4. Waste of US resources and good will for..... nothing?

chaogomu,

#4 is to start the apocalypse so that Jesus will come back and kill all the Jews who don't believe in him.

I've literally heard that exact reasoning from nutjobs who know just enough about geopolitics to know that using a nuke in that region would start WW3. Anyone using a nuke in that region would start it. Unless it's someone like North Korea. That would just mean the end of North Korea as everyone else banded together to take them down.

Anyway, beside the point because no one is insane enough to listen to Lady G.

Sam_Bass,

Nuke him

mindbleach,

Fucker would nuke Nanking.

Nuking anything is never the right decision unless you’re heating up some leftovers. There is no such thing as a justified mass destruction weapon.

biribiri11,

That’s not true. Terraforming Mars with nukes could be pretty cool, too.

SulaymanF,

What would that accomplish other than blowing the dust around?

biribiri11, (edited )

It’ll maybe make Mars inhabitable eventually™. It’d be really cool to watch, though.

Edit: reference to shitpost (2011, before Elon could take credit for it)

Achieve disarmament by launching all nuclear weapons on Earth to detonate on mars. Then wait a few thousand years for radiation to dissipate.

And then people will really wonder why I hate white Amerikans. “Invade this, bomb that, nuke the third”, constantly slavering over the next genocide, and they really wonder why ‘cracker’ is the nicest I’ve got for them.

jsomae,

Nice stereotype you have there. I’ll remind you that even Obama is a war criminal. The problem is America, not some white propensity.

Shut up, cracker; Obama’s half-white, only identifies with his Blackness when it’s convenient to the party (on some Aubrey Graham timing, no Drizzy), and never even considered putting in the work to killing the white man in his head. How else do you think he was allowed to take the presidency? If he was actually Black in heart and culture, he’d have never been allowed within spitting distance. Funny as shit to me that you’d really invoke the king of code switch like that’s a defense for you.

While I’m here, let’s address this “the problem is Amerika” bullshit. Do you really think crackers won’t still be crackers even when the Empire falls? 'Cause I’m certain they’ll be worse. Amerika is only a piece of the problem. The bigger slice is the darkness inside you and yours that has repeatedly jumped out and ruined shit for everyone around them for the past five, six hundred years. Colonialism, genocide, slavery, racketeering, mass incarceration; this is the White legacy you will have to reckon with for the rest of your history.

jsomae, (edited )

“No true scotsman…” I get it. So you define white/black in your mind based on someone’s culture and politics. Kind of contentious to say the least. Pretty convenient for you that you get to call everyone you disagree with “cracker” though.

It would be arguing semantics to say “half-white” is problematic when by the usual definition half-POC is still POC. So I’ll refrain.

Then clearly you’re not in the culture; 'cause we don’t claim anybody who bears the cracker’s water. Like what you’re doing right now. I’m sorry, would you rather I called you a minstrel like Obama continues to be instead?

jsomae,

I’ve never been called a minstrel before; go on.

jsomae, (edited )

Now that you’ve explained your unusually flexible view on race in the neighbouring thread, I think what you’re saying is that “colonialist yahoos will continue to exist widespread even after the fall,” and here we agree.

I expect you’ll continue to find that people bicker with you when you go outside of your bubble because you refer to commonly understood concepts in abrasively inscrutable ways.

Who votes for this monster?

refalo,

More than half of the people who voted, since he ended up getting elected to the Senate.

On another site I saw someone argue that some Republicans intentionally say outrageous things or introduce inflammatory bills on purpose just to get opposing parties and such to rage over it and then they turn around and use that to their advantage somehow.

frightful_hobgoblin,

Like-minded country we need to forge close ties with 🙄

gentooer, (edited )

I’m from in Belgium, and have colleagues from countries from both sides of the second world war. The carpet bombing of cities is still talked about every now and then. It’s still remembered as one of the worst tragedies during that war (apart from the obvious), and the scars it left in many family trees still pain the people to this day.

Hearing stories from Gaza and the Donbas always remind me of the stories I used to hear from my grandfather, and I believed we left those war tactics behind in the last century. It’s absolutely insane hearing an allied country to ours debating using those tactics again.

Now imagine the headlines if someone in Russia said this but for bombing Kyiv with nukes.

How is it even legal to call for the murder of so many people using one of the most atrocious weapons humanity has invented…but if one were to suggest to apply a guillotine to this person for doing so, they would be in severe legal trouble?

PsychedSy,

You can suggest he deserves a lot of things - like you can a pedo. What you can’t do is say you’re going to do it yourself.

ILikeBoobies,

Same way you can say guillotine the rich but not kill Jeffy Bezos

One is seen as more direct, even though the other includes more people

notannpc,

I’m shocked! Who could have guessed this slimy invertebrate would have zero regard for anyone but himself!?

It’s wild that if anyone were to suggest killing Lindsey Graham they would probably be arrested and called a terrorist. But he can just casually advocate for nuking a densely populated area that is inhabited mostly by civilians and a bunch of brain dead morons will still vote for him.

etuomaala,

I hate news about news. Here is the actual news: yewtu.be/watch?v=CWRboGsn-oA

Daft_ish,

Indifference to human life totally on brand for the gop

Tryptaminev,

This is not indifference. This is a call for genocide. And a genocide at Ausschwitz proportions.

Daft_ish, (edited )

I’m saying lindsey graham doesn’t care if people live or if people die.

SoylentBlake,

Lindsey Graham will say whatever his sponsors want him to say. He shares like 2 of his opinions a year, and you can tell which ones they are because a week after saying it he’s already backtracking acting like he never said otherwise. He’ll dance any dance to suppress video of him and his prostitutes dick in his mouth. It’s a corner he’s painted himself in by courting the homegrown hate vote.

My gut tells me that he’s a decent guy and I bet he’s quite capable at the state level, but he’s been in over his head in DC ever since he got there.

This should disqualify him from ever holding office again. I know it won’t, but it should.

Tryptaminev,

You mean it should lock him behind bars for life.

highalectical,
@highalectical@lemmygrad.ml avatar

This should disqualify him from ever drawing another breath again.
