The US supported Saddam Hussein and put him in power- until they got tired of him, then they waged a war and lied about WMD (remember “underground mobile bunkers anyone?) then they found him hiding in a hole in the ground and just killed him. The US is a terrorist state. Love to see the US trillion dollar debt payments go intergalactic in scale. Can’t wait to see it fail even more as a country.
"Saddam Hussein in heaven" 🧐
This IS the BAD PLACE! 😱
Bees! Bees! Bees!
If an advanced civilization in the future figures out a way to scan the minds of all sentient beings and put them in an afterlife simulation, then it'll probably work like The Good Place after they fixed the issues with the system, and this guy would absolutely still be stuck in the purgatories, not yet a better person.
I can't unhear South Park Saddams Voice
That fucker would be nowhere near heaven, let's be real.
Hard disagree. God loves genocidal maniacs, he himself is one.
God loves genocidal maniacs
To paraphrase........God has a hard-on for the US military because we kill everything we see! He plays His games, we play ours! To show our appreciation for so much power, we keep heaven packed with fresh souls!
Almost certainly.
The fresh souls of god fearing soldiers!
But those scum over there who never had the chance to worship the correct god will go to hell
Yes he would. Hell is where the cool kids go. Are you asserting saddam is cool enough to hang out with genghis khan, liberace and Satan? I think not.
Not to the final circle, no. But somewhere on top with all the petty criminals, yes.
“Satan! Baby I am so hard right now!”
Heeeeey, reeelaaaax guy!
Wait, how did Saddam Hussein get into heaven?
He couldn't stay in hell, after he broke up with satan.
Oh yeah, that makes sense. Hopefully Satan finds a better partner who deserves him.
Yeah, uh... He ended up with Trump. They're having a butt-baby.
The baby hanged itself (allegedly) in the womb and they broke up.
Trump is fucking Satan
People's moral compass got seriously screwed over the past couple years. They hate america so much that they think every enemy of america is literally the reincarnation of jesus christ.
Believing Saddam is in heaven would require believing in some sort of god/afterlife/good place vs bad place, and I assure you the vast majority of people who make satirical memes commenting on the United States once again using the excuse of “WMDs!” don’t believe in that. This is gallows humor, grim laughter at being fed the same bullshit time and time again. It’s the by-product of burnout when the regime changes but the narrative remains the same.
What has happened in America (and globally) is that digital interfacing has removed all the nuance, non-verbal, and tonal clues that would clue others in that satire is not endorsement. It relies on the belief that the listener/reader is literate enough to understand that what is being offered is not meant to be taken at face value. It can be true that Saddam was a piece of shit and that it wasn’t America’s place to take him out under false pretenses. I wouldn’t shed a tear if the mango turd got sent to Hell (metaphorically, since I don’t believe in Hell), but I would still be perturbed if his ticket was checked by some foreign nation that I knew didn’t actually give a fuck about me and my community or what came next for us.
satire is not endorsement
A few years ago, I would have agreed with that statement. But I've read people on lemmy unironically saying "Hitler was at least sorta right" and so I just can't really believe that anymore.
If you know it’s being said unironically than you know it’s not satire, it’s just endorsement.
Or not everybody is a christ. Heaven = afterlife
So sheol
WMDs springs eternal!
Did realize the US was dropping atomic bombs over there.
That guy looks just like my dad.
But. The tubes!
In heaven ? Seriously ?
he confessed his sins before death
Maybe he accepted Jesus right at the end.
ye some one who thought they were the muslim god of the world would convert to christianity ?!
Hell would have been too much like a vacation spot for him. Had to send him to the good place to properly torment him for eternity.
Also Saddam watching someone make a meme with that line break:
Watching the us abomb iran, did mario write this?
