#kissinger — Public Fediverse posts

Transcript: 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 #TheHague next to #Milošević. While Henry continues to nibble nori rolls and remaki at A-list parties, Cambodia, the neutral nation he secretly and illegally bombed, invaded, undermined, and then threw to the dogs, is still trying to raise itself up on its one remaining leg.

We are used to hearing reference to #MSM, meaning Main Stream #Media. I suggest we instead use RCM, meaning Ruling Class Media. This, I believe, more accurately describes the reality that all major/mainstream #news outlets are, in fact, owned and governed by #billionaires and large #corporations.

And as such, the RCM will never speak ill of one of their favorite sons unless doing so increases #profits. Thus, #Kissinger will be praised, just as he always has been, by the #RCM.
