Rolling Stone sparks firestorm to celebrate Henry Kissinger’s death with ‘hateful headline’

The lefties took a break supporting Hamas i doxxing kids this week to celebrate the death of Henry Kissinger.

Kissinger, a legendary American politician and diplomat, died Wednesday at his home in Kent, Connecticut.

Immediately afterward, celebration erupted on the Internet, with far-left media like Rolling Stone magazine leading the chorus.

Note:

Henry Kissinger, war criminal beloved by America’s ruling class, finally dies

That’s right, the magazine ran an article titled “Henry Kissinger, War Criminal Beloved by America’s Ruling Class, Finally Dies.”

The stunning piece accuses Kissinger of being a “mass murderer” and a “state assassin.” He also compares him to dead mass murderer Timothy McVeigh.

“Measuring only by confirmed killings, the worst mass murder ever carried out by the United States was white supremacist terrorist Timothy McVeigh. On April 19, 1995, McVeigh detonated a massive bomb at the Murrah Federal Building in Oklahoma City , killing 168 people, including 19 children,” the piece says.

“McVeigh, who in his psychotic way thought he was saving America, never killed remotely on the scale of Kissinger, the most revered American grand strategist of the second half of the 20th century,” he continues.

But it’s not just Rolling Stone magazine that has taken to smearing Kissinger and celebrating his death. So they have their macabre fanatics in X.

Voices on the right, including some who are also critical of Kissinger’s work, were far less Machiavellian in their responses. Take conservative commentator Ben Shapiro.

“Kissinger’s realpolitik was largely about avoiding the worst case scenario by embracing the second worst case scenario,” he wrote in a tweet.

“Realpolitik” refers to Kissinger’s pragmatic but controversial belief that it is sometimes worth being bad if doing so leads to good things.

“[S]sometimes this meant engaging in support of horrible activities to prevent the creation of Soviet satellites (Indonesia vs. East Timor), sometimes it meant doing right in the short term to be wrong in the long term (opening up China ), sometimes meant ignoring human rights abuses in order to further other priorities (Soviet dissident Jews),” Shapiro explained in his tweets.

But, he continued, Kissinger’s biggest criticism is incorrect.

“[T]Kissinger’s most fundamental ideological critique: that foreign policy is not a series of choices between horrible alternatives, and that there is a “family of nations” in which “international law” rules; this “backlash” against American foreign policy is the main driver of foreign policy problems, as if no other country or political organization had independent agency and priorities of its own; that America can keep its hands clean, or that American isolationism is a real option in a multipolar world, is dead wrong,” he wrote.

Kissinger’s realpolitik was largely about avoiding the worst case scenario by adopting the second worst case scenario.

There are legitimate and real criticisms here: sometimes this meant engaging in the support of horrific activities to prevent the creation of Soviet satellites (Indonesia v.…

Meanwhile, a small contingent of other X users were not pleased with the Rolling Stone article. In fact, they responded by chastising the magazine for its lack of decency.

hateful headline

This is not rough or edgy. He’s just arrogant and disrespectful.

Man, I get a bad feeling when people celebrate a death. I get it, but it’s kind of gross.

Rolling Stone is the epitome of envy, hatred and resentment. The perfect magazine for low status people who hate life and resent others for their success.

This is a bit harsh.
He fought for this country, which is more than I can say for most (US Army 1943-1946, WWII, Battle of the Bulge, Bronze Star).
Did you make mistakes? Of course, and some were huge. But overall, I’d say it did more good than bad.

“This isn’t rude or edgy. It’s just arrogant and disrespectful,” one reviewer wrote.

That’s true, but that’s EXACTLY how the left responds every time someone on the right dies. The same thing happened when Supreme Court Justice Antony Scalia died in 2016, when former President George HW Bush and his wife died in 2018, when conservative radio host Rush Limbaugh died on the 21st, and until and all when the queen of england died in 2022…
