Real "Eisenhower warns about the industrial military complex" moment. clown

[-] DefinitelyNotAPhone@hexbear.net 29 points 11 months ago

I can at least kind of see Eisenhower being sincere. Not out of any concern for the wealthy making profit off of mass death, but because it's pretty obvious that if all your guns are coming from profit seekers then that's inevitably going to screw over your military's ability to actually fight, which he has a personal vested interest in.

This is just Biden doing a victory lap while giving ammo to the DNC to claim that they give a fuck about anyone other than their donors.

Dang dude if only you were the president for 4 years maybe you could have done something about it

"The thing I enabled all my life...it's bad, folks"

Fuuuuuuck Biden. May he rest in piss once they actually bury his corpse.

[-] godlessworm@hexbear.net 48 points 11 months ago

he went on to say "and be aware of presidents who run on promises they don't intend to keep, ones about student debt relief, raising the minimum wage, and stimulus checks. don't vote for guys like that for president. those are bad guys"

[-] KnilAdlez@hexbear.net 46 points 11 months ago

I-was-saying

Joe your whole country exists as a defense project of capitalism and by extension the wealthy.

[-] trashxeos@lemmygrad.ml 29 points 11 months ago

[-] CommCat@hexbear.net 25 points 11 months ago

Dems when they lose they try to be a bit to sound left just so they can fool you again in the next election cycle

[-] Rojo27@hexbear.net 25 points 11 months ago

What a shriveled cockroach

[-] GoodGuyWithACat@hexbear.net 17 points 11 months ago

I mean Ike is remembered more for his farewell address warning about the military-industrial-congressional complex than his role overthrowing socialist governments. So it's not a dumb move in the long run.

[-] Assian_Candor@hexbear.net 15 points 11 months ago

He will be remembered for the genocide in Gaza and for his arrogant assumption he could win a second term which directly led to the return of trump.

[-] AntifaSuperWombat@hexbear.net 16 points 11 months ago

Maybe he just forgot his entire career. biden-forgor

[-] M68040@hexbear.net 13 points 11 months ago

Too little, too late. Exactly what I'd expect of a latter-day hindenberg.

[-] GalaxyBrain@hexbear.net 12 points 11 months ago

We did it! We forced Biden left! 2020 libs were right all along!

[-] SoyViking@hexbear.net 12 points 11 months ago

Imagine the world we could have lived in had this Biden just had any political power to fight the wealthy.

[-] SkingradGuard@hexbear.net 11 points 11 months ago

Rich coming for you

Welcome to c/news! We aim to foster a book-club type environment for discussion and critical analysis of the news. Our policy objectives are:

We ask community members to appreciate the uncertainty inherent in critical analysis of current events, the need to constantly learn, and take part in the community with humility. None of us are the One True Leftist, not even you, the reader.

Newcomm and Newsmega Rules:

The Hexbear Code of Conduct and Terms of Service apply here.

  1. Link titles: Please use informative link titles. Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed.

  2. Content warnings: Posts on the newscomm and top-level replies on the newsmega should use content warnings appropriately. Please be thoughtful about wording and triggers when describing awful things in post titles.

  3. Fake news: No fake news posts ever, including April 1st. Deliberate fake news posting is a bannable offense. If you mistakenly post fake news the mod team may ask you to delete/modify the post or we may delete it ourselves.

  4. Link sources: 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 the Xcancel.com (or another Nitter instance) or at least strip out identifier information from the twitter link. There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance, such as Libredirect or archive them as you would any other reactionary source.

  5. Archive sites: We highly encourage use of non-paywalled archive sites (i.e. archive.is, web.archive.org, ghostarchive.org) so that links are widely accessible to the community and so that reactionary sources don’t derive data/ad revenue from Hexbear users. If you see a link without an archive link, please archive it yourself and add it to the thread, ask the OP to fix it, or report to mods. Including text of articles in threads is welcome.

  6. Low effort material: Avoid memes/jokes/shitposts in newscomm posts and top-level replies to the newsmega. This kind of content is OK in post replies and in newsmega sub-threads. We encourage the community to balance their contribution of low effort material with effort posts, links to real news/analysis, and meaningful engagement with material posted in the community.

  7. American politics: Discussion and effort posts on the (potential) material impacts of American electoral politics is welcome, but the never-ending circus of American Politics© Brought to You by Mountain Dew™ is not welcome. This refers to polling, pundit reactions, electoral horse races, rumors of who might run, etc.

  8. Electoralism: Please try to avoid struggle sessions about the value of voting/taking part in the electoral system in the West. c/electoralism is right over there.

  9. AI Slop: Don't post AI generated content. Posts about AI race/chip wars/data centers are fine.
