The liberals with the capacity to remember history that old will be socialists by then, the rest of the goldfish liberals will have rehabilitated his image after the news spent 2 weeks going soft on him with fluff pieces
This is mostly about how Liberals get upset with celebrating deaths of people with even if they "totally disagree with them and agree they were bad" like Kissinger or Rumsfeld or whoever. Not saying that conservatives are celebrating Kissinger in particular.
Though a minority of conservatives hate Kissinger out of a broader sense of isolationism or just anti-Semitism.
It's a split thing. I was taught my antiwar principals by MTG type mincap Dad. He hated Kissinger for being the biggest dealer of death in modern history. I'd expect the crunchy/conspiracy conservatives to hate Kissinger.
I celebrate a shitty person's death like I celebrate taking a knife out of my back - I'm ultimately glad it happened, but the fact that we reached this point at all is a shitty and sombre affair.
Liberals takes these positions because they fully believe that it makes them more evolved and wiser. Infantilizing people they disagree with is a favorite of theirs for this exact reason.
when hitler 2 is born i am going to simply allow him to strike me down like obi wan kenobi and then i will become a force ghost who has the permanent heckin moral high ground (this is how fascism is always defeated btw)
In Book XXII of the Odyssey, Odysseus has just finished massacring the suitors and is "in the thick of slaughtered corpses, splattered with bloody filth like a lion that's devoured some ox of the field and lopes home, covered with blood." His old nursemaid looks upon the carnage - the deaths of the men who've made her life hell for years - and lets out a cry of triumph. Odysseus admonishes her, "No cries of triumph now. It's unholy to glory over the bodies of the dead."
Then he asks her to find all of the maids (i.e., the slaves) in the household who slept with the suitors over the years, so he can have them hanged.
(Quotes are from the Robert Fagles translation, but the lines are different in the Greek; there the center of the scene is at XXII.415.)
