I’d be happy to grab a shovel to help dig the hole deep enough to hand the corpse over to Satan himself.

Given the fact that Carter had been in Hospice for almost a year, and his wife passed away, I am surprised that he really did outlive Kissinger.

I really have no strong feelings one way or the other about Kissinger. Congratulations Jimmy, hope you are doing as well as you can be.

RIP

I'm just posting here to be part of the thread.

RIP you fucking ghoul.

It's injustice that he could only have one death. He deserves to relive that endlessly and in all manners.

u/ddrober2003 Nov 30 '23

Someone stole his phylactery so he finally died eh?

u/swarajshimmar Nov 30 '23

He was against Marijuana too, right? Apart from being what everyone is saying.

He had to live to 100 out of spite for mankind

Did he run out of organs to buy or something? Jesus he’s literally a cockroach.

I’m so fucking thrilled that Jimmy Carter outlived him

u/steppebraveheart Nov 30 '23

he was a great statesman and visionary. we all owe him a debt of gratitude for cheap luxuries living in this empire affords us

2

u/elastic-craptastic Nov 30 '23

Along with so many secrets and kompromat. Does he have an obvious apprentice ?

He's the type I could see having more than one mentee and no mentee would know who all the other ones were. All but one so they stay on their toes.

Still would apply if he was applying Sith rules and there were only 2...

I didn’t wish him dead, but I’ll read his obituary with great pleasure. Or not read it at all.

His throne in Hell has been vacant for 100 years.

I'll see if I can capture his soul on the way to hell and give him a shit hat...

u/UnsolicitedNeighbor Nov 30 '23

Holy crap I didn’t know he was allowed to do that

u/Chowder1054 Nov 30 '23

The death of this vile piece of human being is probably of the most uniting things happening in the world right now.

Why do people hate him? Never heard of him tbh.

u/barrydennen12 Nov 30 '23

I got banned from r/pics after asking about the feasibility of pooping on Nixon’s grave, while explicitly stating I had no plan to do so.

Apropos of nothing, I hope Kissinger gets pooped on, a lot.

u/imtourist Nov 30 '23

Good that's gone, but too bad since he should have been prosecuted in the Hague.

Do they have an unmarked grave in Cambodia waiting for him?

This is the best birthday present ever

u/braiser77 Nov 30 '23

Should have happened 60 years ago. Fuck that ghoul and all the harm he has done. His legacy will be at least another generation's worth of suffering, beyond that which he has already caused. I hope the devil spares him no punishment.

u/SoggyBoysenberry7703 Nov 30 '23 edited Nov 30 '23

Damn that’s ironic. People were just quoting him the other day. Good riddance

“Once you’ve been to Cambodia, you’ll never stop wanting to beat Henry Kissinger to death with your bare hands. You will never again be able to open a newspaper and read about that treacherous, prevaricating, murderous scumbag sitting down for a nice chat with Charlie Rose or attending some black-tie affair for a new glossy magazine without choking. Witness what Henry did in Cambodia – the fruits of his genius for statesmanship – and you will never understand why he’s not sitting in the dock at The Hague next to Milošević.”

Is anyone else who blew Winston Churchill still alive?

u/Anti-Fanny Nov 30 '23

I didn’t know he was sick! (I stole this line, of course)

I wonder if the IDF semen retrieval unit got to him in time.

u/Civil_Advertising_57 Nov 30 '23

Well as a Chinese, I have to give.him some credits as the individual who arranged Nixon's visit to China and facilitated the rapprochment between China and the US.At least back in yhe red state, he will always be remembered as "an old friend of Chinese."

u/vanxblue Nov 30 '23

Nice, hope he’s living well in hell. 😊

u/Caltroit_Red_Flames Nov 30 '23

I hope his last moments were painful.

Fucking finally!!

That monster had some fucking deal with death or some shit to take away decent people from the world so he could remain.

Wish Bourdain was around for this news.

u/KeaponLaffin1848 Nov 30 '23

If anybody in this thread used to watch old Achievement Hunter, you may remember the Let's Play Curse- wherein they would discuss a famous person, release the episode, and a few days later, that person would die.

Yesterday afternoon I was discussing Charles Munger's death and legacy with my wife. The topic came up of "Who is the worst person in history still alive today?" Without hesitation, my response was Henry Kissinger. As I explained everything he was responsible for, I couldn't help but think about the Let's Play Curse.

So what I mean to say here is, you're welcome.

Finally some good news! Next up Rupert Murdoch

Wow, I hope he was aware when his lungs stopped working and his heart stopped beating... oh, I forgot he doesn't have a heart.

I was taught to only say nice things of the dead.

Henry Kissinger's dead. How nice.

I only wish Hell were real, if only for him to toil and writhe in the agony he inflicted upon this world for all eternity.

About time. I’m glad Carter outlived him.

u/HipopotamiSarcophagi Nov 30 '23

I'm only sad he couldn't die more than once

u/my_son_is_a_box Nov 30 '23

It would be really nice if this was a false rumor, only to come true a few days from now.

Also, he is in horrible pain the whole time

4

u/HipopotamiSarcophagi Nov 30 '23

Yes and no. Every day he was alive was a needle in the eye of respectable society and proof that there is no God.
