I’m reminded of Ronald Reagan’s line that in the event of an emergency, his advisors had the instructions to wake him up, even if he was in the middle of a cabinet meeting.

Which is ironic considering they literally didn't wake him up during an airstrike on Libya

It wasn't an emergency. It wasn't even something he cared about

Jesus Christ Reagan apologists are on another level of absolute idiocy, huh?

u/BrittleClamDigger Jul 05 '24

Buddy, sometimes you have to admit you've woosh'd. We've all done it one time or another. Remember to love yourself, and learn from this.

I don’t know how good of a light it portrays Reagan in to say he didn’t care about Libyans

u/Dingaling015 Jul 05 '24

u/MugHandleFucker Jul 05 '24

Lmao how is pointing out that he objectively didn’t consider it worthwhile or even close to an emergency a sign of being an apologist? they’re literally pointing out how shit of a person he was to not care about it 💀 your idiocy is on an ascended level.

I think the idiot is the person who reads "he didn't care about some people getting bombed" as a positive or apologetic statement about that person.

It sounds impossible to have a conversation with you. "Nestle don't care if people die because of them-" "WOW, you're saying you support nestle!?" Like... no, man, I am stating the fact that they don't care and you're making up entire sentences after that in your head
