LMFAO. Nazi miller got scared from people protesting against him that he now lives on a base because he can’t defend his own domestic domicile.

Thats right Americans. Under his logic his house and everyone else that can’t defend their homes are yours to take.

Guys like this deserve to have their jaw bones smashed into a thousand pieces and wired shut for life.

His parents did him no justice by the way they raised this sack of shit. What a pathetic excuse for a human being.

This guy has some balls talking about defending anything.

I know right. By his logic I should be able to walk over to my neighbors house, pummel her and take her stuff because she's weaker.

Denmark didn't need to defend Greenland because it had the world's most powerful ally defending it for them. I mean WTF?

Hey, chalk is fucking scary.

[-] WatDabney@sopuli.xyz 16 points 2 weeks ago

In an administration stuffed to the gills with dangerous lunatics, Miller stands out on both counts.

He's clearly a full-blown psychopath, and an existential threat to the US and the world. He doesn't just need to be removed from power - he needs to be committed.

You spelled hung wrong

[-] iltoroargento@lemmy.sdf.org 6 points 2 weeks ago

*Hanged

[-] theherk@lemmy.world 4 points 2 weeks ago

Though you’re correct, Merriam Webster makes it seem that “hung” is fine here too.

[-] SeductiveTortoise@piefed.social 7 points 2 weeks ago

I prefer hanged, because I don't want any fairy to grant him a giant schlong by accident.

Agreed. Monkey's paw/genie wishing is a precise science...

[-] baronvonj@piefed.social 4 points 2 weeks ago

In this context 'hung' could also be an adjective indicating he has a gigantic dong. So I really think we should be sticklers about hanged vs hung here.

[-] AniZaeger@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago

I got banned from r/politics for replying to someone saying that Eric Swallwell should be hung. Apparently, saying something around the lines of "anybody with balls of steel must also be hung" was "inciting violence".

Meanwhile, the guy actually saying he should actually be murdered wasn't seen a problem.

[-] FreshParsnip@lemmy.ca 2 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

I've always thought hanged was the correct term for past tense of hanging humans and hung was correct for other situations

[-] corsicanguppy@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 weeks ago

Remember that Noah Webster is responsible for deriving American from English. Convince me he didn't write a dictionary only to lend an air of legitimacy to his lunacy.

[-] yakko@feddit.uk 1 points 2 weeks ago

Yeah but fuck Noah Webster

[-] BassTurd@lemmy.world 10 points 2 weeks ago

Trump is bad, but Miller is the most evil piece of shit in the US government.

[-] kryptonianCodeMonkey@lemmy.world 8 points 2 weeks ago

One of the most evil in the history of the US government. Which, frankly, it's a high bar.

[-] Carmakazi@piefed.social 5 points 2 weeks ago

The moment Demon Miller got on CNN or whatever and said to the host he was belittling "We live in the real world where what matters is strength", every single one of our allies should have started drafting and updating plans on how to kill American soldiers and wage war against the US.

I believe that was one of the most foreboding statements that has come out of the administration so far. A blatant admission that they do not care about laws or ethics, only strength of arms.

[-] Drusas@fedia.io 1 points 2 weeks ago

They also care about money. But the two go hand-in-hand.

[-] Corporal_Punishment@feddit.uk 4 points 2 weeks ago

There are millions of Americans living and working abroad.

Any invasion by America of a NATO member means all of a sudden we have a few million hostages.

[-] NABDad@lemmy.world 6 points 2 weeks ago

Why do you think this administration would care about Americans living abroad when they don't care about Americans living in the USA?

[-] jbloggs777@discuss.tchncs.de 4 points 2 weeks ago

I think you mean a few million outspoken critics of the US. US citizens abroad are often well educated and critical of US domestic and international politics and policies.

A more effective response would be to give them microphones and platforms upon which to express their views.

[-] yakko@feddit.uk 2 points 2 weeks ago

It's true. In half a decade here, I don't think I've met a single Brit who finds America as revolting as I do. They do some creditable work, but the quality of their polemic is limited by a want of familiarity.

He ran away from his home because of peaceful protests. It belongs to the protesters.

[-] MBech@feddit.dk 1 points 2 weeks ago

My money is on the american military getting absolutely fucked by a bunch of people on dogsleds and white camo. They couldn't deal with a bunch of people in a forrest, nor a bunch of people in a desert. What makes them think they'll have any success in a snowy hellscape where the wrong kind of clothes will kill you?

[-] Drusas@fedia.io 2 points 2 weeks ago

I'm going to guess the thought is that there aren't very many people there and they don't care if any of those people survive. In fact, it might be easier for them if most of them did not.

Which is to say, why send humans to do a bomb's job?

[-] corsicanguppy@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 weeks ago

Again, the only response here is to demand clarification so that trade with America will resume.

[-] just_another_person@lemmy.world 0 points 2 weeks ago

Then I now own all your property that you are not currently at, you stupid piece of shit.
