Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

What I don't understand is why ghouls like this don't just retire and enjoy their twilight years for a while. She was being paraded around on a wheelchair in front of camera after her stroke as her handlers were weakly trying to convince everyone that she is still fit to do anything that requires intermediate cognitive capacity. Now she has died while still being in office like a chump.
Edit: Forgot to mention that she is worth tens of millions of dollars.
I can’t comprehend it. Like, I understand it for the true believers, both Bernie and the craziest republicans. But people like Feinstein, you did all this insider trading and made all this money and for what? To work until you croak like us poors?
When you spend your whole life in pursuit of money and power, you never stop to figure out what you actually enjoy in life. You eventually try to fill that empty hole by telling yourself that you enjoy the work you do.
My grandfather was like that, just relentlessly chasing money his whole life. He eventually tried to pass his business to my father and retire, but he couldn't handle it because he had no clue what he enjoyed beyond money and drinking Budweiser. Eventually he pushed his way back into the business despite being nearly deaf and starting to suffer from dementia. He was so proud of being rich, but he ended up losing most of his money by trying to Feinstein it.
I feel like Shakespeare wrote a play about this.
did he?
guessing the reference is https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/King_Lear#Psychoanalytic_and_psychosocial_interpretations
