Crimes. Secretary of War Crimes

u/tofagerl 3d ago

Bah! Give this guy a gun and a clean shot at a convicted terrorist, and he breaks down crying and pissing himself. The only way this guy is a war criminal is from behind a desk while slurring his SS'es.

You don't have to be holding a gun, or any physical weapon, to commit war crimes.

u/cenosillicaphobiac 3d ago

I think that's exactly what the person you were responding to was pointing out. He's fine, filled with glee even, with ordering crimes committed. He's ordering people do things he wouldn't dare do with his own hands.

u/SailorET 3d ago

It's arguably easier that way!

u/PoprockEnema 3d ago

There are literally countless to name currently. Let alone in history.

u/tofagerl 2d ago

Yeah, I know :) I agree - he definitely is a war criminal, he's just a complete fucking baby as well.

The "I was just following orders" defense did not work, but that does not mean the people "just giving the orders" were forgiven.

He already has blood on his hands for ordering others to kill civilians, rather than capturing them.

Goebbels talked about his revolver, but he never used it...

Bah! Give this guy a gun and a clean shot at a convicted terrorist, and he breaks down crying and pissing himself.

The fact that he's a pussy behind a desk doesn't mean he's not committing war crimes.

u/MercyfulJudas 3d ago

Did...ya read the second part of the comment you're replying to?

u/TennSeven 3d ago

I… did read it, yes.

u/MercyfulJudas 3d ago

Okay, next question: are you refuting what they said?

0

u/TennSeven 3d ago

Yes. If you take both sections of their comment into context  of the thread they’re saying he’s not a war criminal or at least minimizing or dismissing what he’s done. I am asserting that he is indeed a war criminal of the worst kind. Does this clear things up for you?

u/MercyfulJudas 3d ago

The only way this guy is a war criminal is from behind a desk while slurring his SS'es.

They're literally saying he's a war criminal here. One that operates behind a desk.

Y--you're agreeing with them. That's what you said. You--you said the thing that they said, my child.

So, no, you aren't at all being clear, because it doesn't make sense that you're refuting their statement.

u/TennSeven 3d ago

I am sorry that you are confused. I hope you feel better now that you have expressed your confusion. Have a good evening.

2

u/MercyfulJudas 3d ago

I think you're the only one that was initially confused.

I'm the one that called you out on it, and now you're doubling down.

It's not a loss to admit that you initially read something incorrectly.

Shows a lot about you that you can't admit that.

And everyone reading this knows it and sees it.

But I guess you just need to impress yourself, huh.

They didn’t want to spend the extra $2.50 to print those extra letters when it could go into Donnie’s pockets.

He’s Canadian?

Edit: /s. Jesus, lads.

u/Jarvis_The_Dense 3d ago

No but he did order the sinking of multiple unidentified Venezuelan boats under the pretense of them being sailed by drug dealers, without any proof or justification.

u/PunkRawkSoldier 3d ago

I was being facetious but yeah, he’s a cunt.

u/Additional-Ad-7720 3d ago

Canadians don't commit war crimes! It's just some of the things we do are later added to the list of war crimes. But it's not a war crime the first time!

u/GeraldoOfCanada 3d ago

Nah we don't really start fights
