The Supreme Court of the United States is not supreme. They disregard their constitution, and the law of the land. SCOTUS: Take off your robes, and wear the mantle of shame.

Rich, white, old, conservative billionaires

[–] Lemminary@lemmy.world 57 points 3 days ago (3 children)

Don't forget homophobic, xenophobic, racist, misogynist, evil, and pedophilic.

[–] Empricorn@feddit.nl 66 points 3 days ago

"Conservative" was the 4th word.

[–] ILikeBoobies@lemmy.ca 11 points 3 days ago

He already said rich

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.

[–] muzzle@lemmy.zip 7 points 3 days ago (1 children)

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

[–] fading_person@lemmy.zip 3 points 2 days ago

Exactly. We must not commemorate early, to avoid jinxing it.

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.

[–] onslaught545@lemmy.zip 23 points 3 days ago (17 children)

Well, Trump and friends rigged the election, so I wouldn't say it's what the countrymen wanted.

These three played the American left like a fiddle in order to make it splinter and let trump get power back. What’s worse is Americans were warned they would do it

[–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 7 points 3 days ago

with the help of rigging the election, and voter suppression. the one on the right, rigged his way in the first place.

[–] RaivoKulli@sopuli.xyz 4 points 3 days ago

They all were, initially. Putin just has had time to cement his rule so much that elections don't matter

It's incredible how: everybody lets them.

[–] narinciye@discuss.tchncs.de 13 points 3 days ago

Erdogan would fit well into that frame too, although he is only a regional misfit.

[–] Yeahigotskills2@lemmy.ml 16 points 3 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

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

Poor Xi is feeling left out, he's kinda white too :(

[–] teslasaur@lemmy.world 10 points 3 days ago

Bolsonaro would like a word.

And the ayatollah

And the Royal family in Saudi Arabia

And most african countries.

But that doesn't fit the story this OP wants to tell.

[–] FreshParsnip@lemmy.ca 25 points 3 days ago (2 children)

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 days ago (3 children)

Unfortunately it seems that evil has a way of sticking around for way longer then you'd expect, kinda like weeds in your garden.

Remove the white part and add Xi and Kim

[–] ILikeBoobies@lemmy.ca 10 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Kim’s sphere of influence isn’t that big

And don't forget King Salman of Saudi Arabia.

Just because some powerful people aren't in the news all the time doesn't mean they're not doing things in the background that effect the world.

Also, there's something close to 400,000 people dead now so far in Yemen and people barely pay attention to it.

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

Make sure to keep making it about race, really helps your cause. It's a class war.

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...

[–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 7 points 3 days ago

the one on the right responsible for the other 2's rise to power. although lesser effect on old benny

[–] SugarCatDestroyer@lemmy.world 4 points 3 days ago

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

[–] apfelwoiSchoppen@lemmy.world 7 points 3 days 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

[–] Underwaterbob@sh.itjust.works 9 points 3 days ago

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

[–] tigeruppercut@lemmy.zip 7 points 3 days ago (1 children)

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

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

[–] teslasaur@lemmy.world 4 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

Nono. These three "white" people are causing problems.

Don't try to circumvent what they actually say. Consider what you would feel if it was a picture of Xi, Kim Jong Un and the ayatollah which said: these colored men are the issue.

Fucking hypocrite.
