    FFS, who cares? Hillary isn’t gong to be on the ticket anytime soon and she never was president. What is this guilty by association crap I’ve been seeing crop up? Let’s focus on the dude who died.

      I care because it demonstrates how pervasive his views are among the ruling class.

      Show me someone who rejects Kissinger and the horrific shit he did and maybe that’s more like someone who should be in power.

        More than that, centrists don’t like being reminded that their favorite human was friends with and admired a war criminal. So they have to pretend that Kissinger wasn’t as bad as he was.
