Nazis in Nuremberg were tried for crimes against humanity not war crimes. Different.

Ah, so Kissinger is guilty of crimes against humanity. Got it.

[-] Rapidcreek@reddthat.com 1 points 1 year ago

Could be. The UN is the first place you have to get agreement, the the International Court. Go for it.

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Now you're trying to weasel out of the question. I think what this is actually about is you have some weird respect for Kissinger and don't think he did anything wrong when he illegally bombed two countries and killed thousands of innocent people.

[-] Rapidcreek@reddthat.com 1 points 1 year ago

NO, I'm just getting tired of you. You're not bright but you make up for it by being persistent.

Kissinger is an asshole and always has been, but in the end his boss, Nixon, called the play.

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Insulting me doesn't change the fact that you have spent a long time and a lot of effort trying to show how innocent Kissinger is. Maybe you aren't aware of that?

[-] Rapidcreek@reddthat.com 1 points 1 year ago

But insulting you is so much fun. I will celebrate when Kissinger is gone the same way I celebrated Nixon's death.

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

You think insulting people is fun, do you?

So basically you want Lemmy to be Reddit.

I'll have no part in that. Goodbye.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That's all the rules!
