On the Death of American Presidents

There has not been a president yet who hasn’t ruthlessly ordered the murder of numerous human beings to benefit their own careers. Yet it is anathema to mention these war crimes upon their deaths. Posts about their passing are always loving eulogies without qualifiers from their tribe, or loving eulogies from the opposing popular tribe with the qualifier, ‘maybe I didn’t agree with all of their policies, but...they were a good man, etc.’ This is gross. All 45 of our presidents have blood on their hands, and the rival tribes are different variations of capitalist original and capitalist diet. The fact that all the leaders of the ruling class in this country have to do is live at least a few years past their years in power to become respected elder statesmen harkening back to a better time—however many lives they’ve destroyed and families they’ve disrupted—should make everyone vomit. But I’m the troll, right?
