Randy Fine should take one more bite of that donut and have a clogged artery. Useless fat fuck.
This fucking MAGA Putz has been a Florida State Senator for a while now, being a total dick about everything, but he was only known to Floridians. For instance, in February, he introduced a bill to allow college studenta to carry firearms on campus (Florida recently lowered the age of handgun ownership to 18), and a month later, a guy shot up the FSU campus in Tallahassee, killing 3.
Now he gets to inflict his MAGA assholery on the entire nation.
You're welcome.
Wouldnt nuking Gaza be really really bad for Israel too? Its not like the fallout gonna stay in Gaza.
This shit isnt just malicious, its maliciously stupid.
It's not like maga can tell a good idea from a bad idea as it is.
These are the same dipshits that still love donnie dumbass, who apparently asked about nuking hurricanes.
Collective punishment is a war crime.
Indiscriminate use of force is a war crime.
Disproportionate use of force is a war crime.
He's openly calling for war crimes. Send him to The Hague.
Unfortunately, back in the Bush years, a little while before the second gulf war, they passed a bill to invade the Hague if Americans got tried there. Folks will have to seek justice through other channels.
Dude wasn't even gazan wtf
Fine is a former gambling industry executive who drove loyalty programs to prey on gambling addicts. And before that he worked at McKinsey and Lehman Brothers.
As of we needed any more evidence that this guy was a piece of shit.
So he gets to call for nuking Gaza, and that gets him a major news story and top of Lemmy. Whereas I call for nuking Israel and my comment is deleted and I get a Lemmy ban. This is fucked!
Plead tell us your full name and we'll also make a story out of you
...and then report you to the police as we do him.
ACAB
Well said... So you can see how nasty are things right now in USA and in Israel. Thanks to lobbism and Trumps Admin "Israel First" and his total an "absolute commitment" to Israel genocidal policies.
“In World War II, we did not negotiate a surrender with the Nazis, we did not negotiate a surrender with the Japanese. We nuked the Japanese twice in order to get unconditional surrender, that needs to be the same here,” Fine added.
Never trust anyone who traffics in rhetoric like this, full stop.
All wars have negotiated ends because they are called genocides when they don't.
In World War II, we did not negotiate a surrender with the Nazis, we did not negotiate a surrender with the Japanese.
We did both of these
Yes, and why was it not mentioned immediately after his quote in this article, let alone challenged immediately after he said it? Historical illiteracy is so common in news reporting. It's embarrassing.
and why does he care so much, hes not even israeli!
Because they pay him to.
I think he wants to cheer for the genocidal team this time to balance it out.
can we get a stop electing such horrible fucking assholes
we've constructed a system that almost exclusively rewards people like this.
We? I mean, I don't recall being consulted on this
We dont. There is no democracy in that country.
You want to fix it? Establish a democracy
As long as horrible fucking assholes stop breeding, sure. The problem is that they’re also the biggest fucking dumbasses so they just keep on poppin’ ‘em out.
Fucking dumbasses having kids who grow up to be decent people and disown them has definitely been known to happen though
Not often enough to rely on, that’s for sure.
Killing all of Gaza for the actions of one person? If that isn't absolutely insane I don't know what could be.
Maybe he should be nuked? Oh noes did I advocate violence?
