Oh look, the crypt keeper IS actually capable of using executive power for the rare good action. Do prisoners who had drug charges similar to Hunter's get released? No no, that's just for nepo babies. But at least he'll gesture at amnesty to pretend he's not nakedly abusing that power for it's own sake.

I'll be nice for once and say this is a not bad thing he didn't have to do

[-] [email protected] 43 points 5 months ago

Same. Let it be known by the libs that I do actually give their politicians credit when they do good things. This is unequivocally good.

The guy is enthusiastically bankrolling a genocide, he deserves nothing but the wall.

I didn't say he's a good person. I said this particularly action is a good thing. I'd still support trying him at the Hague for all the other bad things. Critical support and all.

A broken clock is right twice a day.

You can give someone credit for doing something good, but still hate them and think they're bad people. Hitler was a vegan and pro animal rights in some regards, that doesn't make him not Hitler.

Hitler wasn't actually vegan, but yeah

Showing how deeply caring and kind hearted he(sevenskalls) is by offering the acknowledgement that a good thing happened when it's not even deserved.

Hexbears forgetting the concept of critical support the moment an American does something.

[-] [email protected] 5 points 5 months ago

it doesn't apply to the imperialists lol

Nah, fuck that. This should be the absolute minimum. If a president can just do this, he should do this for literally every single person who ever gets a death sentence.

actual human people are apparently not going to be executed that the following admin would almost certainly accelerate the process to kill. it's a good thing. it's not ENOUGH by any means but it is at least the correct direction of travel unlike pretty much every other Biden admin thing other than labour (which was also Not Nearly Enough). it goes without saying he would still get the wall. I can in fact hold both of these thoughts in my head at once just fine.
