    Western educated man who is pissed off at the US for abandoning his political ascension? Slightly better than a meth addicted turboracist, a crazy murderer, and a child molester. I doubt bin Laden is going to be able to do much opinion changing in a single evening and I doubt that he'd outright kill or molest them.

    Bin Laden fathered 24 children, the first of which was with his first cousin when she was 16 and he was 17. They went on to have ten more children. The other 13 were spread amongst five other wives. They also found several beheading videos on his computer. He also believed muslims should kill any US civilians they find until the US withdraws support for Israel.

    I think definitely killing and maybe molestation would be on the table.

  • Bin Laden could be trusted because from what I know he never purposely wanted kids targeted. One murdered several children, one murdered too many to count in concentration camps as well as ordering soldiers to do it because he didn't see them as human. The last one was a sex pest and I wouldn't trust kids with.

  • Not even remotely close. I saw him first and before seeing the rest of the faces I already knew that this was an usian thing so he was going to be "a major evil".

    Fact is, aside religion, we'd have a lot in common, including hating the US so, if any, it would give for an interesting evening for my kids and a more interesting post-evening chat with him.

    The other 3, in my eyes, are way, waaaaaaaaaaaaaay worse.

    You must not know very much about Bin Laden. Give his Wikipedia articles a quick skim. Your kids wouldn't survive the night. If they survive an hour, it's because they decided to kill them slowly.

    I just read every section that sounded relevant and he sounds like a great guy besides the religious fundamentalism. Wrote poetry, took his kids on picnics, encouraged the american public to work with Obama on stopping climate change...

    Bin Laden loved his kids. Part of the reason he moved to that compound in Pakistan was because he wanted his kids to have a semblance of a normal life. He's discuss politics with is Eldest daughters. When he was captured he was found asleep with his youngest son.

    Woman who recently had a mistrial go viral for being the latest influencer courtroom case. Similar to Depp v Heard. The woman’s name is Lindsay Clancy, I believe.

    Notable things (viewing this through the lens of my wife who told me about this case):

    • flimsy hard evidence against the mother
    • mother allegedly tried to kill herself 3 different ways after snapping and allegedly killing her children while the husband was out of the house
    • a lot of the evidence seemed to be hearsay from the husband
    • children’s bodies were cremated by the father
    • father is suspected of having a mistress because he moved on after this relatively quickly.
    • jury trial ended in a hung jury, because 1 juror tried to reverse “12 Angry Men” it to get all other jurors to switch to a Guilty verdict.
    • Clancy admitted to the murders initially

    My unsolicited opinion is that she very likely did commit the crimes, but the State has insufficient evidence to convict due to the police’s negligence during their investigation.

    How is the husband gtfoing indicative of a mistress or relevant to the question of whether the wife was sane at the time of the murders?

    Having people close enough to take you in when your nutso spouse commits triple homicide is not a red flag or a cause to cast doubt on where the guilt lies

    I don't have a mistress but if my wife killed 3 family members, I'm sure I could find someone to give me a place to crash to get away

    • Flimsy hard evidence against the mother

    (your first bullet)

    Is absolutely untrue and makes it sound like you are trying to cast doubt on the case in weird ways based on all your subsequent points.

    This isn’t “Making of a Murder” , no matter how many podcasts you heard. Extremely clear cut case from an evidentiary perspective, so much so neither side argued the evidence AT ALL

    Osama bin Laden loved his kids. He was hard on them, for sure, he was basically what you imagine when you think of a deep south US prepper survivalist - a bit eccentric and paranoid, but intelligent - he would be taking his kids on long hikes, teaching them how to sleep in the desert with only sand as a blanket, but he did it out of a deep desire to protect them and give them skills to survive.

    Idk, the Goebbels has to kill his kids in the bunker is a problem either way. They lived in an era where suicide (attempts) were something noble. I think eva tried it a couple of times too. After all not very child friendly environment.

    Osama, easy. He's a family man and would show absolute respect and kindness towards the child as is the custom of his religion and his culture.

    He has nothing against children and has a big household with other kids mine can play with.

    My child will also be damn safe there and get great food.

    Such an easy contest.

    Just leave them home alone.

    Alternatively, you reckon Osama could teach them basic engineering skills? If they are making phone-activated landmines surely they can put up some fun RF experiments.

    Just have a talk after with the kids like "did he bring up America? Because the US isn't great but it's not as bad as he makes it sound, but he has personal reasons for hating the US, but also don't take what he said seriously"

    That's probably all you need to do with that guy.

    I agree with him on the US though lol. Well it depends on what era bin Laden we are talking about since he was a CIA asset during the 80s and I think early nineties? Not sure on the latter part.

    Which Americans are the top left/bottom right?

  • [–] 10 points 2 months ago (1 child)

    Top left is the perpertrator of (trigger warning, 3 kids killed, I'm leaving the link as it is instead of adding text to it so you know what it is without having to click on it) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Killing_of_the_Clancy_children

    Bottom right is P Diddy aka Puff Daddy aka Sean Combs. Known for, among other things: helping more talented musicians than himself make good music, dating J-Lo, playing in a Muppets movie, rape parties, domestic violence, guest appearance on Notorious B.I.G's track Mo Money Mo Problems, potentially ordering the hit on 2pac's life, being a general piece of shit with tons of connections and money. He was like the Hip-Hop world's Epstein, though I don't remember if the "performers" at the Diddy Parties were children or adult women, they were definitely getting raped though.

    Like those two Americans are so bad that between these 4 people... I'd be most likely to trust bin Laden. In this very hypothetical scenario, because this is a shitpost and in reality if I can't find a sitter and I get to choose between these 4, well guess what, I'm just cancelling my plans and staying home. Might be a tie between bin Laden and Hitler actually, we're not Jewish, Roma or any other minority he tried exterminating.

    ngl, since im a white, cis, heterosexual, non-jewish, german: probably hitler. i dont think he was the kinda guy that would kill children just because he could. if these children happened to have like, a jewish mother, things would definitely look different

    My three kids are in their 20's. Assuming there are no weapons involved, I'd say they're safe with any of them.

    Bin Laden, Hitler, and Combs would each have a rough night. Lindsay would probably be ok. If necessary, they could restrain her without injuring her.

    I think Adolf was not bad to children (or maybe I am missing some information)

    I'd argue you're missing an approximate 1.5 million informations.

    debating him would be fun for me, too.

    You took my reply way too seriously.

    I'm not a historian so I can't really debate this. Of course Hitler was selectively pro-life, the whole nazi shit is exactly that (and why many back then didn't want to see what happened initially - after all the Nazis gave white people "Kraft durch Freude" and holidays for their first time). Same crap happens in the USA right now, and of course many other countries. Though fortunately for democratic US-citizens still fighting the Trump regime is far less competent than the OG Nazis.

    "kid-friendly" is a term encompassing all kids though. If you're unfriendly to some kids you're not kid-friendly. This applies to nazis, racists, religious assholes, ableists etc. all alike.

    The Wannsee Conference didn't contain Hitler, but did include many higher ups making the explicit plans for the Shoah. It wasn't Hitler's first plan, deportation was, but any reasonable understanding of his long term plans would require eventual extermination. He was invading places he had sent Jewish people to.

    Also non-Jewish victims didn't get the attempted deportation. Disabled Germans, criminals, communists, queer people, etc faced brutal prison labor and eventually extermination.

    Ultimately, Hitler didn't give orders in a way where you can say "he ordered this to happen". He made his desires clear, and let the party vie for his favor. Had they not orchestrated the Shoah, party members would have been replaced with those who would

    Did Hitler actually do any killing people himself, or did he just have other people do it for him? If it's the latter then I pick him, because I think he's too lazy to actually do anything.

    I'd pass the Nurnberg check, so Hitler would a solid first-round pick. It's a toss about who would gendercode my kids more between him and Bin Laden. Lindsay What's-Her-Name and P. Diddy are automatic no's.
