Rich, white, old, conservative billionaires

In Brazil we just put our white problem guy in jail, probably for the rest of his life. Hope that becomes an example for the rest of the world.

Technically, he's under house arrest waiting for the next iteration of the process.

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.

Could you imagine how bad Harris would have been though?

[-] Catoblepas@piefed.blahaj.zone 13 points 3 weeks ago

Whatever you do, don’t focus on the sick culture at the center of America that caused this. It’s probably some minority group that caused it by not voting hard enough!

[-] SatansMaggotyCumFart@piefed.world 7 points 3 weeks ago

Actually the group of people who voted Trump in combined with the group of people who didn't vote and decided that they were okay with being complacent with him getting power was a majority of Americans.

[-] Catoblepas@piefed.blahaj.zone 11 points 3 weeks ago

It’s funny how ‘people who didn’t vote because they felt disgusted by both options,’ ‘people who didn’t vote because they live in a red state and agree with Trump,’ and ‘people who didn’t vote because they live in a blue state and knew their electoral votes were going blue anyway’ get flattened into a single group that are to blame, and also synonymous with Trump voters. Yay, that’s so much easier and less scary than confronting the wild racism and fascism at the heart of America!

Not sure if this sarcasm or not 😆

Hey, don’t forget: both sides

[-] 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.

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 15 points 3 weeks ago

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

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

Remove the white part and add Xi and Kim

Kim’s sphere of influence isn’t that big

It's incredible how: everybody lets them.

[-] Lysergid@lemmy.ml 16 points 3 weeks ago

Correction: two white and one orange

[-] Yeahigotskills2@lemmy.ml 15 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

3 total bastards. Ethnicity isn't really relevant, and being non-white doesn't necessarily prevent you from being a powerful despot.

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.

[-] cygnus@lemmy.ca 8 points 3 weeks ago

Jews are white now? It seems they're labelled however is most convenient for criticism.

[-] pilferjinx@piefed.social 21 points 3 weeks ago

Netanyahu is of Polish descent.

[-] orbituary@lemmy.dbzer0.com 10 points 3 weeks ago

And formerly a US citizen to boot.

I feel like a lot of people missed your point- not just about Jews but the concept of "white" in general has been nebulous throughout history.

Irish people, Italian, greek... Pretty much all Mediterranean people. There's been tons of conversations about whether Egyptians should be considered white, and which ones. The Nazi's labelled the Japanese as "honorary Aryans".

"White" is not based in anything physical or real. It's a concept made up to exclude others and has changed based on who they want to include or exclude.

You seems to say, that jew, being massively from north Africa shouldnt be labeled as white. Which is totally fair. Except jew isnt a color, there are black jew, and white jew. Black christian, and white one. Black muslim and white one.

Plus , you try to Straw man (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Straw_man) this meme. It never assumed any religion of the 3 white men portrayed. Probably, none of them believe in anything but whatever further their agenda.

[-] Catoblepas@piefed.blahaj.zone 7 points 3 weeks ago

‘White’ is a social category, not a scientific one. Who is white depends on who the majority of white people want to be white. In many ways the initial exclusion and then later inclusion of Irish and Italian immigrants in the US hinged on them becoming part of the system that oppressed indigenous and black Americans.

In that sense it makes complete sense that an Ashkenazi (European) Jewish man, whose parents were colonizers from Europe who moved to Israel, who is exacting a genocide on a group of people that are decidedly not considered white, might be considered white by other white people. There is certainly a history (past and present) of excluding all Jewish people from the category of whiteness, but blinding ourselves to the racism of the present, along with who is benefitting and who is suffering, is unwise.

[-] pelespirit@sh.itjust.works 6 points 3 weeks ago

White is anything racists want to persecute at the time. If they have a use for you, sure, you can be white...for now.

Natanyahoo is definitely white..

I don’t know about non white jews tho, I bet there are at least some 🤔

Who told that all jews are white?

[-] muzzle@lemmy.zip 8 points 3 weeks ago

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

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...

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.

To think Kim Jong Un doesn't cause any problems to the world is wild

[-] tigeruppercut@lemmy.zip 10 points 3 weeks ago

OP: These three guys have caused a ton of problems.

You: Not mentioning everyone causing problems means literally only these three caused problems!

[-] Underwaterbob@sh.itjust.works 10 points 3 weeks ago

At least North Korea's influence outside of NK is fairly limited. At least compared to these three.

[-] SugarCatDestroyer@lemmy.world 5 points 3 weeks ago

This is just the tip of the iceberg, others who do not die of old age will be punished when our civilization collapses.

[-] elevenbones@sh.itjust.works 5 points 3 weeks ago

They're white.
