Dick Cheney, America’s most powerful modern vice president and chief architect of the “war on terror,” who helped lead the country into the ill-fated Iraq war on faulty assumptions, has died, according to a statement from his family. He was 84.
This should be news in Iraq.
I hope the guy that threw his shoes at Bush has a very good day.
He actually only served 9 months in prison. Worth it.
Geez, he didn’t even hit him! Cantcha take a joke?
One of the chief architects of our current fascist state, only fighting against it when it became clear he was not going to be in charge of it. A vile person who exploited American grief in order to profiteer on the deaths of millions. Fuck him and good riddance.
He didn’t even “fight against it.” His daughter, who is still a piece of shit, might have. Kind of.

Oh no. Anyway.
Hope all the people who died in the Iraq war do this to him in the afterlife.
BREAKING NEWS
SATAN CALLS CABINET MEETING WITH LORDS OF HELL. FEARS OF COUP EVIDENT WITH PRESENCE OF KISSINGER. RECENT ARRIVAL OF CHENEY.
That guy was a warmonger and opportunist, but I like his daughter.
Rest in piss
I’m always torn. Should I join in and provide my “thoughts and prayers”, or should I ignore such deaths, not comment, and hope this news passes from the feeds?
Well, I guess I made my choice, because I commented. So, thanks for nothing, Dick, and fuck you for all the harm you caused. Good riddance.
Too little too late
Another terrorist down
ITT: people who rejoiced when he endorsed harris.
link to people rejoicing?
Sure, I’ll just dig around for old threads from more than a year ago in order to provide examples of centrists being happy with dick cheney’s endorsement just to have you immediately dismiss them and demand more.
Yeah, lemmy’s responsive enough to do that quickly and you’re not just trying to waste my time in bad faith.
funny you should mention bad faith
Demands to prove the obvious just because you know doing so would be a huge pain in the ass? Yeah, the people I described have already downvoted me.
“The obvious” never happened.

Now dismiss all of those, move some goalposts, and demand more, like you always intended to do. You have successfully wasted my time.
EDIT: Here’s some more:
For the record
However, the very few threads I could find regarding Cheney’s endorsement of Harris here were people pointing out a Republican endorsing a neo-lib who would hold the status quo.
Fuck that bitch
Thank fucking entropy.
I haven’t forgotten all the suffering this man caused. I hope he enjoys those flames in hell. I still can’t believe he was an honored guest on the Dem national platform because Trump is evil. One less war criminal more to go.
I hope he enjoys those flames in hell
Wouldn’t that be nice? If only…
A surprising one. Strange.
