Better than the people taking smiling selfies at the holocaust memorial in Berlin

There are plenty of people who go out there and take their picture on the X where he was shot. Although I do get some enjoyment from watching them quickly realize that it is actually a very busy street and drivers will not slow down for them.

It’s pretty nuts that former CIA director Allen Dulles and the CIA killed a US president because he didn’t help them successfully conduct their coup in Cuba the way they did in Iran and Guatemala.

We are saddened to announce the passing of phoneymouse, ruled as suicide. Fifty two bullets to the back, he was very determined.

R.i.P in peace.

Historian Sean Munger's excellent 2-part series on the JFK assassination interestingly titled: Oswald Acted Alone.

It’s documented that he had regular contact with the CIA and that the CIA stonewalled congress on providing information. The CIA even appointed one of Oswald’s handlers as a CIA liaison to congress, while covering up the connection. Congress had specifically requested the liaison have no connection to the case.

We need more people like this standing up for what they believe in. So inspiring. Never again is now.

Where did they think he was going to return from? The sky? A car? A nearby store? The ground?

[–] homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago

Man, don’t you know, its all a hoax, man! The legacy lamestream media want you to believe he’s dead but no! Q says he’s been [fuck, i dunno some batshit crazy explanation that doesn’t explain anything], just waiting to show up and help trump!

I could've sworn that happened more recently. Wow.

Your thumb is at a 45° angle. You're saying you kinda like the assassination?

[–] nexguy@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago

Kinda don't like them is what I gather. I mean if you're going to have to assassinate then just don't do it in front of me bro.

This reminds me of a scene in Bad Teacher.

"I just hate slavery so so much. Slavery's the worst. If I could go back in time and undo slavery, I would. I hate it. I hate it."

Anytime I drive by cows I shake my head at them for becoming meat when vegans don't even eat meat.
