Henry Kissinger Was A War Criminal, But Presidents And Celebrities Smiled With Him
Henry Kissinger Was A War Criminal, But Presidents And Celebrities Smiled With Him
Henry Kissinger, America’s most famous war criminal, died on Wednesday at age 100. As secretary of state and national security adviser for Presidents Richard Nixon and Gerald Ford, he micromanaged, presided over or provided crucial support to deadly conflicts on three continents.
In his eight years in power, he unnecessarily prolonged the Vietnam War for five years, ordered the carpet-bombing of Cambodia and Laos, provided arms for Pakistan’s brutal war in Bangladesh, gave the green light to Argentina’s “dirty war,” endorsed General Augusto Pinochet’s deadly coup in Chile, enabled a genocide in East Timor and fueled civil wars in southern African countries.
The estimated death toll for foreign policy follies connected to Kissinger sits between 3 million and 4 million. The 350,000 to 500,000 Cambodians killed by American bombs, however, are most directly connected to him. As secretary of state, Kissinger personally approved thousands of bombing raids in the country while closely overseeing the campaign. Cambodia’s government collapsed amid the U.S.’s secret bombing, allowing the strongman Pol Pot to fill the vacuum. His short rule ended with the slaughter and starvation of 1 million more.
BUH BYE! 🦀

This is your daily reminder that autocrats thrive on hopelessness. They thrive on fear. They win when the people become resigned and believe that fighting back is impossible.
Listen, there’s simply no denying that we are on the road to autocracy. But, believe it or not, we’re not there yet. (Yes, it’s true!) We can turn back!
But in order to do that, we have to believe we can.
There’s an Eleanor Roosevelt quote that gets repeated so often, it’s almost lost its meaning, but I still think it’s worth revisiting in a new light:
“No one can make you feel inferior without your consent.”
Don’t give them permission to make you feel lesser! That’s what they want! They want you to just roll over and accept their dominance!
Listen, I know this whole situation is so fucking exhausting. And wouldn’t it be so great if we didn’t have to fight so hard for our basic rights and freedoms? But these are the cards we’ve been dealt; we’re in this fight whether we like it or not.
So, do whatever you need to do to keep yourself sane. We’re in this fight, but we need to take it in shifts or else we’ll get burnt out and then they win.
Keep yourself sane. Find the moments of joy wherever you can. And remember that no one gets to make you feel lesser just because they want you to.

Having a Separate Identity Apart from being a Political Figure
Tumblr media
In addition to political careers, there are a lot of other alternatives. Students who study political science hone their writing and research abilities. They learn how to construct a solid case and support it with evidence. Political science students develop their oral communication and presentation abilities by presenting their work to faculty members and their peers.
Students majoring in political science hone their analytical abilities while researching policy proposals and analyzing the effects of governmental acts. Studying political party agendas and the impact of leadership transitions critically is essential.
Political science students study how governments are formed, how elections are run, and how public opinion is swayed. They research various leadership philosophies and get historical context on the relative efficacy of different approaches.
Option 1: Policy Analyst for Political Science Majors
Political science majors study how public policy is made; therefore, working as a policy analyst is a logical extension of their academic studies. Strong critical thinking, writing, and research abilities are essential for policy analysts as they create arguments on the nature and effects of policy ideas.
2. Assistant in Legislation
All levels of government use assistants to help senators, assembly members, representatives, and other elected officials carry out their tasks. Legislative assistants draw on the written and speaking abilities they've gained as political science majors to manage communication with constituents and update them on events in their district.
3. Public Relations Specialist
Public relations representatives influence public opinion about their clients based mainly on placing stories with the media.2 Political science majors develop the writing skills needed to draft compelling press releases and the persuasive skills to assert the benefits of covering a particular story.
4. Attorney
Lawyers working for political figures, interest groups, and lobbying firms use the legal research skills developed by political science majors to research legislative and policy issues. They help draft and edit the language for bills and assess the legal precedents for pending legislation.
5. Entrepreneurship
When an individual has enough experience in dealing with people and understanding their needs by analyzing the lack or scarcity of one or more products/services of any line, that is when they may start their career as a business person that will give the conformity of thriving. The presence of influencing a vast majority is already there, and people will trust you easily hence good business.
People like Hayk Grigoryan in politics are making history by doing things that are not just profitable for their career growth. Still, as a person responsible for others around him based on his position, he always focuses on giving back to society and keeps moving toward success in his career.
His portfolio would include the following:
●          2005-2008 Armenian Government, Department of Social Affairs- attorney.
●          2008-2009 Central Bank of Armenia - attorney
●          2009-2012 – Armenian Credit Bureau Agency- chief legal officer.
●          2013-2014 – Washington state department of financial institutions, researcher
●          Since 2016, private law practice – Grigoryan law firm

Let us be brutally honest with ourselves and with eachother for a moment. If he weren't obese you motherfuckers would be capable of percieving evrart claires sexy sexy moral ambiguity and complex charms
#i am (lesbian) sipping him like a fine DESSERT WINE#my evidence by the way is very simple and very damning. joyce messier. there i said it.#if you guys can appreciate the fact that Joyce is a complex figure worthy of disgust yes but also worthy of empathy#despite being a venal coward facilitating acts of violence and slaughter of the organized working poor of martinaise in the name of capital#if you can understand that she is a dimensional figure while also being an embodiment of the moral apathy and cruelty if capital owners#but you cant look at evrart and see that he is (while deeply flawed and morally suspect) also a dimensional figure#on top of the fact that his motivations are eminently relatable and dare i say it baser#and his greatest failing imho is in failing to advocate for the interests of *all* the poor of martinaise#opting instead to marginalize the inhabitants of the fishing village in favor of a power grab in the interests of himself and his union#though this is imo a bit of a grey area morally. undeniably a wrong and bad thing to do but done in service of clairs political goals#to gather power to advocate for the working class against ultraliberal monoliths like wild pines and fascistic orgs like krenel#still super wrong but i can follow the moral arithmetic there tho i don't like it#but like my point is if u can see that joyce is evil and pathetic but still cool and sexy but you consider clair flatly distasteful#thats cus hes not conventionally attractive#cus he is *every bit* as dimensional and interesting as joyce and he is not nearly as politically shite even if hes interpersonally a jerk

Video from Nikita's YouTube channel, uploaded on December 1, 2009. They're watching TV without sound and voicing people on the screen. Artyom (reading the name of the news program; Nikita says something indistinct too): NOW. A small sound from Nikita, something between a chuckle and a cough. Artyom starts laughing and hitting the floor, Nikita joins him for a short moment. Artyom (talking about the news anchor's face): What a fucking mug! Fucking awful. (but more rude than that) Nikita (voicing the woman, in a stupid voice): HELLO, I'M A SILLY WOMAN. (Artyom chuckles) I have... (the scene changes to show some people) Oh, fuck (OR he says "Buryat", hard to tell), fuck off. (Nikita makes random sounds and growls, Artyom laughs) Nikita (reading the text in the bottom right corner, in a stupid voice): "Mongolia?" Fuck it, they'll be Buryats (a Mongolic ethnic group native to southeastern Siberia) anyway. (Artyom chuckles) AAAAAAAAHH! (Artyom laughs) Nikita starts speaking ("I- *something else*"), but Artyom interrupts him, voicing the man on the screen himself: I'm a Buryat, but I live here because I like communicating with Irkutsk people, they are all so kind, but they all beat me the fuck up. (Artyom tchk's with his tongue) Yeah. I also suck skins (skinheads) off. (Artyom takes a deep breath and makes random sounds, presumably trying to imitate the Buryat language)
