You know your culture is fucked when someone who isn't a pedophile is being celebrated because it's a nice change.

It's a joke about conservative media coverage - Hunter Biden was never VIP, but the news covered his (incredibly boring) drama like he was a sitting member of the government and presented like he had some kind of terrible influence.

[–] ThunderQueen@lemmy.world 10 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Well now you have kushner and don jr and ivanka, so definitely nothing to worry about

Trumps children are sitting members of the his cabiney in one capacity or another and are stirring up drama all the time. Just back to every accusation is a confession with these people

These idiots are obsessed with Hunter

[–] hamid@crazypeople.online 3 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago)

He recorded himself drinking and smoking crack then getting in his car and driving around. The dude is an incredible piece of shit and should be in prison. He risked a lot of innocent peoples lives when he did that, like my grandfather who was hit by a drunk driver and was crippled a year after he retired then rotted for 10 years without the use of his legs after working his whole life.

Fuck Hunter Biden. Fuck this person on Twitter. Death to America and all their politicians, billionaires and failsons.

[–] FoxyFerengi@startrek.website 116 points 1 week ago (6 children)

Kinda weird to call Hunter a VIP. I don't think I'd even call him moderately important

[–] Akasazh@lemmy.world 14 points 6 days ago (2 children)

Have you heard about his laptop, though?

Did it have Linux?

[–] ameancow@lemmy.world 12 points 6 days ago (1 children)

His laptop has been spotted in high-level talks with foreign investors. It was seen holding meetings between several international spy agencies and even was seen getting into a car with prominent mercenary leaders.

When will someone finally put a stop to this laptop?

[–] nomy@lemmy.zip 4 points 6 days ago

I heard Hunters laptop was given gold bricks and an airplane.

[–] Lucidlethargy@sh.itjust.works 9 points 6 days ago

That's because his Daddy didn't make him an official member of the US Government.

[–] FatVegan@leminal.space 5 points 6 days ago

That's because in america, it's expected that every failure's failure son is also getting to be an important failure

[–] BillyClark@piefed.social 45 points 1 week ago (3 children)

Maybe there's been some update I don't know about, but I also haven't heard about Joe Biden being in the Epstein files, either.

[–] Imgonnatrythis@sh.itjust.works 32 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Almost as if character is like a real thing. Like respecting yourself means you also respect others. Say what you will about Joe, but never got any scumbag vibes from that guy. Haven't really heard too many surprises from the names that I've seen in these files so far.

[–] vala@lemmy.dbzer0.com 23 points 6 days ago (3 children)

Yeah he's more into drone striking kids than doing anything else with with them

[–] Ourst@lemmy.sdf.org 10 points 6 days ago

He’s more “fuck them kids” than “fuck them kids”

[–] prole@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 6 days ago (2 children)

What kids did Biden drone strike

[–] ameancow@lemmy.world 6 points 6 days ago

I care less about drone strikes against direct military targets and the like than I do about funding Israel's ongoing genocide that has killed far, far more innocent people than any "whoopsie that was a schoobus" incidents.

[–] theolodis@feddit.org 1 points 6 days ago (3 children)

He personally? Probably none. On his order?

After Joe Biden took office, he halted counterterrorism drone strikes without White House approval

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Civilian_casualties_from_the_United_States_drone_strikes

[–] SavinDWhales@lemmy.world 4 points 6 days ago (1 children)

That's... A good thing? The full quote from the article is:

In October 2017, Trump abolished the Obama-era approval system in favor of a looser, decentralized approach, which gave the military and CIA officials the discretion to decide to launch drone strikes against targets without White House approval.[25] This policy reduced accountability for drone strikes.[26] After Joe Biden took office, he halted counterterrorism drone strikes without White House approval and initiated a broad review of U.S. policy on drone use.[25]

[–] theolodis@feddit.org 1 points 6 days ago (1 children)

That's better than what it used to be under Trump, but not better than what it used to be under Obama. It does just mean that Biden had to approve every drone strike, so technically any kid that died during his presidency to US drones is on him.

[–] prole@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 5 days ago (1 children)

So surely you have examples of kids being killed by drone strikes under Biden?

One? Just one kid?

[–] theolodis@feddit.org 1 points 5 days ago

Again, here is an article from 2021 talking about 7 dead children, but you'll also have to consider that usually those things remain hidden unless somebody leaks it, because... Well, the government doesn't want to look like the bad guys.

"Calling it a "tragic mistake," the U.S. Department of Defense admitted Friday that it had killed 10 people, including seven children, in a drone strike"

https://www.yahoo.com/news/us-admits-drone-strike-kabul-afghanistan-killed-10-civilians-children-202430704.html

Both are worth noting. Any president is going to make some decisions with ugly consequences that will be criticized. If you are a creep on a personal level, imagine how bad you can be with some dissociation. Trump and pals rape children personally and personally spew out lies on a daily basis.

[–] prole@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Do you know that "halted" means "stopped"?

And you specifically mentioned kids... Still waiting on that one

[–] theolodis@feddit.org 1 points 5 days ago

Can you read? He halted strikes without approval from the White House, which means that all drone strikes had to be approved by the White House, which is the house this Biden guy was working from.

When it comes to the children, a quick search revealed one article from 2021 talking about 7 dead children, but you'll also have to consider that usually those things remain hidden unless somebody leaks it, because... Well, the government doesn't want to look like the bad guys.

"Calling it a "tragic mistake," the U.S. Department of Defense admitted Friday that it had killed 10 people, including seven children, in a drone strike"

Unrestricted drone warfare is more an Obama critisicm than Biden. The only creepy Biden thing I remember was him sniffing women's hair.

[–] theolodis@feddit.org 6 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Obama and Biden both had to approve drone strikes. It was the first Trump administration that got rid of that requirement.

Not saying that this makes Obama or Biden better, but it seems like Trump was even worse.

[–] TheseusNow@lemmy.zip 2 points 6 days ago (2 children)

Yeah not saying Biden didn't partake in drone warfare, but the civilian casualties from drone attacks were significantly reduced during his term as president. He only executed around a tenth as many drone attacks as done on Obama's term. So it is not something that makes sense to criticise him specifically on, especially when there are definitely other things to criticise him on.

[–] theolodis@feddit.org 2 points 6 days ago

I'd agree on that.

[–] hamid@crazypeople.online 0 points 5 days ago (1 children)

"reduced" fuck off apologist.

[–] TheseusNow@lemmy.zip 1 points 4 days ago

No apologies here, if you want something to criticise Biden on that caused significant death focus on something like the shit job he did pulling the troops out of Afghanistan. Or his lack of action, like not expanding the supreme court which could have prevented a lot of the authoritarian bullshit the US is doing now. Your comment makes you sound like a US voter who didn't vote for Kamala against Trump because "Kamala bad too", and that kind of thinking is also another reason we are in the mess we are in now.
