    Dumbass rule. Scum dies, people can celebrate. Pull the stick out of your ass before you start looking like a fucking Reddit powermod.

      Right? If Hitler rises from the grave and we curb stomp him back into it am I not supposed to celebrate?

      Bad people exist. It’s good when they stop existing. We should be able to acknowledge that. This isn’t Reddit and I never want it to be.

      EDIT: Put some more thought into it. I think it’s important to celebrate the death of objectively bad people because it helps normalize obliterating whatever virtuous image they constructed for themselves while they were alive. Unfortunately, the USA has normalized corruption, that’s not really debatable at this point. We need to normalize publicly shaming corrupt individuals to try to dissuade future bad actors from rising through the ranks and letting the world know exactly how low these corrupt assholes were. And as far as determining whether Graham was a piece of shit or not…well, I’d say if you constantly take advantage of things you actively vote against and flip flop on your statements from one day to the next, you’re a pretty big piece of shit.

      Hard agree. I will celebrate every GOP death there will be like it’s the fucking last, of which I will actually hope to live to see the day where it will actually be the last.

      To the mods, stop sucking on that right wing dick and licking them boots, fuck the alt right and every fucker who supports them. May we dance on their graves till the end of times

        It’s cool, you should have seen the crap we removed when Carter died. We aren’t playing sides here, that’s why it’s in the side bar.

          You should just let us downvote them out of existence.

          Far as I’m concerned the only thing that should be removed are slurs and outright misinformation, which includes anti-voter sentiment.

      Yes, please. This stupid rule is so subjective to interpretation that mods misuse it everyday when it suits them. Fuck that shit!
