What the actual fuck.

Fucking disgraceful.

This is a wild thread. Kamala understands decorum and professionalism.

Politics without is just a fuckin' schoolyard fistfight, and we've had too much of that.

Democracy is about being able to have differences in opinion but still be neighbors.

This is the respectful way to honor someone's passing.

It's disrespectful to "honor" the passing of a murderous torturing thief.

It's disrepectful to the memory of the million+ iraqis civilians he killed for no reason, the innocents tortured under his direction, and the victims of his many financial crimes at home and abroad.

Honoring is NOT condoning his actions. It's a way of honoring yourself, your people, and your country by showing respect, even to the lowest of your members.

That's not true though. It's a way to whitewash the legacy of one of history's few unmitigated villians.

No one's honoring themselves and their country by showing respect to the memory of ted bundy and he killed orders of magnitude fewer than cheney.

Always has been.

I’m probably the minority here, but I appreciate the decorum. It lowers the temperature of the conversation without outright endorsing what he did.

For me, the time to be angry was when it was happening.

As someone who has no stakes in this, is this what people meant when they described her as "Obama 2.0"?

[–] Ensign_Crab@lemmy.world 1 points 5 months ago

She accepted his endorsement. She made it clear who she was.
