Mussolini was captured by Italian partisans on April 27, 1945, while attempting to flee to Switzerland disguised as a German soldier. The following day, April 28, he and his mistress, Clara Petacci, were executed by firing squad near the village of Giulino di Mezzegra in northern Italy.

Their bodies were then transported to Milan, hung upside down in a public square (Piazzale Loreto), and displayed before a crowd. This was done both as punishment and as a warning, since the same square had earlier been the site where Fascists executed resistance fighters.

Just saying.

After this wonderful exchange, I am pretty sure the majority of americans must be locked in to doing nothing until they declare mandatory federal gun buybacks, ban "smartphones" and start executing people for petty crimes.

An I get it, work, life, groceries, taking care of yourself & family, etc. I discussed something similar in semi-recent posts. I do not have the answer here.

Even if all that I just mentioned happened, I feel like it would not even stir anywhere near 50% of the adult population, which is just my opinion of course. Not exactly scientifically backed, much like future USA medical research. Zing.

And I won't give a shit if somebody blows his and Fanta Führer's fucking brains out

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[–] Aquaphobi@lemmy.zip 6 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

Then I guess he won’t give a shit when he goes to jail?

[–] limelight79@lemmy.world 6 points 11 hours ago

I like your optimism...

Many if not most criminals don't care about the harm they do.

Why do all these Vance and Trump picks always look like their mouths are buttholes?

[–] Goldholz@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 12 hours ago

Biological isnt it that they develope from the same in the uterus?

[–] floquant@lemmy.dbzer0.com 20 points 1 day ago

I also don't give a shit what people think.

It is a war crime. Nothing to debate about

[–] Typhoon@lemmy.ca 57 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (3 children)

For a politician to openly say he doesn't give a shit is a very dangerous sign.

An elected official speaking like this to the public means they’ve completely lost their fear of repercussions. They’ve lost their fear of public backlash, of public perception. They’ve lost their fear of being voted out.

It means that in his mind there’s nothing to fear. He thinks he’s untouchable. He’s above you and everything you think and do. He’s your ruler and you’re his subject.

It means he's no longer afraid of you having a democracy.

[–] mohammed_alibi@lemmy.world 5 points 18 hours ago

Unfortunately their Republican supporters does not seem to give a shit, scandal after scandal. So he's right.

[–] mrdown@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago

The opposite. Now, people can't pretend to not know about scummy politicians

Vance sure wears a lot of makeup. He's a short step to full clown kit. Why not just do it.

[–] BilboBargains@lemmy.world 12 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Americans talk like they didn't create the opioid crisis in the first place, profit from it, disavow it and in the process generate a mountain of homelessness. The idea that foreign gangs are arriving on their shores and corrupting the good and honest white folk of America is truly hilarious. Americans love drugs and their society is the perfect shithole to sell painkillers.

The trick is to create a dystopia where there is a lot of pain in need of killing.

Bingo. You get an Oxycontin. Thanks, Purdue Pharma.

Cool, our employee doesn’t care how we feel.

Fire him. Out of a cannon. Towards a sewage pit.

At least he is a honest scum. The united snakes never cared about war crimes and terrorism they caused

I never thought anyone would read Clear and Present Danger and think "gee, that seems like a pretty good idea!"

Aw, who am I kidding. None of these chucklefucks read.

[–] ouRKaoS@lemmy.today 5 points 1 day ago (1 children)

They read, they just lose interest in anything longer than a tweet.

Well I don't give a shit if he gets Luigi'd

[–] D_C@sh.itjust.works 10 points 1 day ago

I never did, even before he jumped on the coattails of the obese orange paedo.

On the positive side, his appearance and meandering uselessness did give us quite a few memes and laughs on the way.

[–] bufalo1973@piefed.social 106 points 2 days ago (2 children)

Then, if some other country targets him it's fair, right?

[–] alquicksilver@lemmy.world 72 points 2 days ago

You might say "I don't give a shit" if they do.

Just a thought.

He is the average US Catholic in my opinion, and I went to 12 years of Catholic school so I've been around the block. The only part of the Gospel that they follow is being anti-choice. Oh wait that's not in their bible? (Sorry I was disillusioned by this religion at a very early age)

[–] kreskin@lemmy.world 2 points 23 hours ago (1 children)

so I’ve been around the block.

thats some sexual position thing right?

[–] apfelwoiSchoppen@lemmy.world 1 points 12 hours ago

Amazing, Kreskin. But to answer your question, no.

I wouldn't call it a war crime because there's no war in which the crime was committed. It's just plain state sponsored murder.

When Mohammed bin Salman ordered the death of Jamal Khashoggi, I didn't think of that as a war crime, either. Just a simple case of state sponsored murder.

[–] frongt@lemmy.zip 34 points 1 day ago

You don't need an official war to commit war crimes. The US hasn't declared war since WWII, but I don't think anyone would say the My Lai massacre wasn't a war crime.

Old hillbilly ugly always call Peter Thiel first so he knows what to say.

I keep saying this and people don’t want to listen. These idiots believe in the rapture, and they think all these things happening are the prelude to that.

I am not kidding, they’re serious about this. Who cares what real world events are happening, they’re sure the Israel situation is happening because Jesus is going to come back any day, and they’re happy to kill us all because it’s worth it.

Not that it would justify it but is there any evidence whatsoever that these people were cartel members?
