TIL on George HW Bush
363 2017-06-06 by stumpane
I'm so sick of the fucking praise being doled out lately to war criminals murderers and drug runners.
That TIL on front page was a fucking disgrace. But hey you know he skydived at 90!? Anything's possible with a healthy supply of young blood I suppose.
I hate reddit sometimes
Edit: a couple people have become upset over this post because there is no conspiracy here. Apologies- my intent was not to make a garbage shit post.
My point is that the TIL seems like an operation to change manipulate perception amongst users by highlighting an alleged heroic act by a horrendous human being thus covering up his actual nature.
Not to mention in the actual post if you sort by controversial, anyone who made a comment about his shady past got downvoted to oblivion.

Im certain a decent section of those would also 'love to have a beer with him'. And discuss what? Im sure he'll be able to relate his world domination struggle, assassinations and occult sex rituals to your network administrator job.

As we have learned, most content is driven to the front page by bots and armies of PR. There was an in-depth analysis showing that content in most subs is controlled. So your point is no longer valid.

n/a Loose-ends 2017-06-06
I prefer Gore Vidal's term of "Crypto-Nazi" that he hung on William F. Buckley because of all the false pretenses and patriotic nonsense these creatures spout and hide behind to obscure just how thoroughly rotten and criminally-minded they actually are. Real Nazis don't run and don't hide, they're proud of being the villainous and ruthless shits that they are.
n/a AfterSchoolPogrom 2017-06-06
When I call George HW Bush a Nazi it is because of his family's historical role in providing support to and bolstering the fledgling Nazi party in the period surrounding WWII.

Trust me people older than Sponge Bob knew who Noam was before the internet. Manufacturing Consent was was in every left wing kids back pack in the late 80s. Anyone with an above room temperature IQ knew of him for his ire against the oppression and slaughter in East Timor.
n/a flyinghighernow 2017-06-06
I was there and I did not know who he was. I recall hearing the term "Manufacturing Consent," but not who popularized it. So no, I don't TRUST YOU. :)
I watched television and Noam Chomsky was not on it and not mentioned on it at any significant level. You know who I remember seeing on TV all the time -- and on "liberal" PBS for that matter? Mr. William Buckley.
I don't recall this either.
Thanks, buddy. :)

Buckley was CIA. The Nazi vs Jew thing is long-running psyop. Both are fronts for British intelligence.
n/a Loose-ends 2017-06-06
In essence every bully is a coward, but not every coward is a bully.
Nazis exist and take a great delight in bullying and cowing others into obedience with the threat of violence or death if they don't comply. How they behave when they don't have the upper hand or when the odds aren't in favor is different matter. Prescott Bush was a closet Nazi as was his son and grandson. They pursue the same kind of political ends and business advantages for themselves that the Nazi regime in Germany provided, only through surreptitious and clandestine means.

Wernher von Braun was a NAZI in name only. he was politically ambivalent, was basically forced to join and did so to further his dream of space travel. in his own words on a visit to a concentration camp he said

Operation Paperclip
n/a monkee67 2017-06-06
i am aware of operation paperclip. what i mean is the depth and intensity that these scientists had invested in being a "good Nazi" it one thing to go along with your government when you have no other choice (as in work for us or we kill your family) its completely different to buy into whole cloth an evil system. could you really blame them for going along? that's like holding the drone makers of today responsible for every drone attack in Yemen. i doubt that von Braun was a "good NAZI" he just wanted to get to the moon
n/a AfterSchoolPogrom 2017-06-06
For example:
I'm pretty sure the people building these things know what they'll be used for.
n/a flizzy333 2017-06-06
Given there were approximately a thousand or so targets of Paperclip, and some of them WERE found to be "good NAZIs", then yeah, 435435435 is right to have said they run to Argentina or NASA.
The US, UK and USSR were all out shopping for NAZI brains post WWII.
The wiki link has more detail, and points out three cases, and there's a big list of names there to go through if so inspired.

Do you remember that huge scandal in 1989 when he nominated Nazis to fill his cabinet? I've been looking online for that story, but the keywords don't seem to be specific enough....
n/a AfterSchoolPogrom 2017-06-06
I was six. However, you may find what you're looking for in the book Webster Tarpley wrote about him in 1992.
n/a AfterSchoolPogrom 2017-06-06
The Tarpley book is available to view for free on his website. Here's an excerpt from Chapter 23, "The End of History"
n/a AfterSchoolPogrom 2017-06-06
n/a flyinghighernow 2017-06-06
TY. I read the Tarpley book years ago when I found it online.
I don't see my point there. As I recall, and this goes way back, George Bush nominated six current Nazis to his cabinet. When the scandal broke, he withdrew the nominations. I don't see how Tarpley could miss it. :(

Never once heard of him being a nazi, it's kind of comical you say that. I'm starting to noice a trend in this sub, any mention of a republican president or presidential candidate, words like nazi and war criminal get thrown around. Guess it's okay that former president Clinton just continued the same practices you dub Bush a nazi for. And Clinton did it for 8 years. I'm just tired of every post or comment pushing some agenda even here in this sub...
n/a AfterSchoolPogrom 2017-06-06
You really ought to read up on the Bush family's connections. Say what you will about Clinton and his own criminal legacy (lord knows no one else here was talking about him), his family's fortune didn't come from Auschwitz.

Also, I'll suggest Tarpley's book on Obama's CIA origins.
My "agenda" is pretty clear and straightforward. What's yours that you get so upset at the mention of documented facts about the Bushes?
You've really exposed yourself here.

Exposed myself? That's funny. Clinton is fair game when talking about Bush Sr. as he was the following pres. Just like Regan would be fair game for discussion as well. The context of a presidents term in office is often dictated by the proceeding and previous presidents. Just because he came from a political family doesn't make him inherently evil. And I can understand criticizing a presidents policy, but to criticize them as a person? To belittle their military service? That's just petty. The man became president (something no one on this sub could ever accomplish) and did his best with the country he was given at the time. But because he is a Republican you feel it is acceptable to berate his family? To call a man who served in WW2 a nazi?? That's sickening.
n/a AfterSchoolPogrom 2017-06-06
You've come unhinged. If you can't engage the material I've provided, then we don't have much more to talk about. Your world outlook is dangerously impressionistic. Let's talk about all of the American presidents. That's fine with me. We can start with Kennedy and whether or not your beloved Poppy can honestly be placed in Dallas the day he was shot.
Seriously, look at the stuff I've linked. It's not about berating servicemen or Republicans. There's an entire world of shit here, and you can't see it because you won't look. Someone's sold you a bill of goods.
I'm kind of astounded by your response. It's hard to think of another person in American history more deserving of the world's collective scorn.
n/a PeYtOn115 2017-06-06
I checked your links and dubbed them redundant. The people writing your "sources" all have an agenda to push, the one that lines up with your own apparently. I am not saying he didn't do some questionable shit. I'm saying the narrative you gulp down is presented to you by someone else, form your own opinions man don't rely on other people's work to validate yourself. Ima leave this alone now I've said my peace. The day the world opens its eyes and realizes sometimes shady shit is required to keep our nation safe will be a day worth celebrating. Much more worthy of celebration than the death of an old man who looked after your freedom for 4 years. That is if you're even an American, how should I know.
n/a AfterSchoolPogrom 2017-06-06

Your nationalism is poison.
n/a PeYtOn115 2017-06-06
And your ignorance is sad. I formed my own opinions through a college education and a whole lot of research papers, with sources gathered from a legitimate database, you know peer reviewed sources?

Why you hate the country and her leaders whom have sheltered and protected you your entire life I will never understand. Move to Europe if you can't handle the nationalism.

n/a PeYtOn115 2017-06-06
Nah you're just a weakling who enjoys talking shit about successful people on the internet because you know you'll never accomplish as much as any of the people you regularly bash. You make not one bit of difference complaining about the so called "wrong doings" of dead and past leaders. Let's talk about George Soros (if that's how you spell it) or the pedo-Podesta brothers? You know people who actually do wrong in the name of their own personal gain? Not the benefit of the American people like a president does. Oh I'm sorry I forgot, people like Podesta are your people. All globalism, open border social justice kiddie fondlers right? So they do no wrong, while the men who make the hard decisions such as the defense of our nation from a terrorist threat or taking out the largest cocaine producer in world history (Pablo Escobar) are just evil men right? Moral of the story is it's completely bad as that Bush senior sky dived at 91. Good for him he's living the life.
n/a AfterSchoolPogrom 2017-06-06
You still don't get it. My opposition to Bush and the neocons in no way signifies support for Podesta, Soros, Clinton, or whoever else you might want to invoke.
And, really, "defense of our nation from...Escobar"? You've got to be trolling at this point.

n/a PeYtOn115 2017-06-06
Well there's no need to curse at me like a child, grow up already this is a debate. I'm just saying if these leaders weren't there, you'd probably would be bowing down to someone named Muhammad something or another. In this world unless you hold the power you pay homage and respect to those who do. And guess what? You elect whom you want to hold that power isn't that cool? The majority of the country picked this man out, just because you don't like him doesn't mean he's a nazi... Now I admit there's been much better leaders than the Bush presidents. (Reagan being my personal favorite) but when these men were in office we were at war. Desert storm and then Iraq. Now you probably believe that the president is to blame for these wars right? Which is such an astoundingly ignorant statement it physically hurts. There is so much more in play out there in this world than me or you will ever be aware of. You will never be able to google international wartime secrets no matter how convinced you are that you can. These men picked up the mantle and carried us through trying times, then then things got easier passed the torch to a democrat who could work on the social justice shit during peace time. (Pres. Bill Clinton. You know he reduced the national deficit to its lowest point in recent history right?) fact of the matter is these former presidents deserve your respect. By all means criticize their policy. But when you start taking shots at their family, at their character you stoop go low for me to ignore. This whole post is just about someone upset that Bush sr. is still alive and mad the front page. Just open your eyes to the messed up real world we live in and grow the fuck up.
n/a Yeshua_is_truth 2017-06-06
if democrats do Nazi things, that doesn't make it ok for republicans to also do them
n/a PeYtOn115 2017-06-06
I simply don't believe they participated in nazi things. And I don't think there was much profit flowing out of concentration camps, most certainly not enough to build a fortune. I have no doubt great granddaddy Bush probably threw some money around nazi Germany. So did every other global bank. Before America declared war it was just Germany under the control of a new political party. At the time we didn't realize how evil nazi Germany was. We held the Olympics in Berlin 1936 right? Hitler organized that did he not? So anyone who went there or advertised there gave money to nazi Germany. It sounds so scary to say "Bush grandfather gave money to Nazis" but so did the American Olympic teams, civilians, and other politicians who simply went to the Olympic Games or had simple business in Germany. I understand that narrowing the view to "Bush family nazi money" fits your liberal perspective nicely. But I do not believe for one second that the Bush in question knowingly funded the Nazi war machine or concentration camps. He just had business in Germany as many Americans at the time did. Now that his children and grandchildren are your favorite scapegoats (presidents of the United States) the "nazi connection" makes him sound so evil. But all one has to do is wade through the fragments of information this sub presents you with and preform your own research (like they teach you in college) to see that no, in fact no Bush was ever a nazi.
n/a Yeshua_is_truth 2017-06-06
sorry they did
n/a AfterSchoolPogrom 2017-06-06
Trotsky was warning against fascism in 1930, so that "At the time we didn't realize how evil nazi Germany was" stuff doesn't hold. The oligarchs knew exactly what they wanted from the Nazis: a safeguard against the spread of Bolshevism.
I've provided you with plenty. Either you've never undertaken a serious reading of history, or you're intellectually dishonest.
The last thing any of us want on this sub is some bootlicker defending and downplaying nazis while advocating police state measures in the name of safety. A famous Franklin quote comes to mind, for the patriots among us.
Seriously, this is absurd.
n/a PeYtOn115 2017-06-06
Hahahahahaha you called me a bootlicker. It's only absurd to you because you're used to the liberal echo chamber that this sub is. I thought I'd spice things up a little with a differing opinion and judging by your replies I succeeded. Everyone who's replied to me has made it oh so clear that they just want to hear how right they are. You can spin it how you want but I'm not advocating naziism in the least. I'm simply pointing out how 'absurd' it is that you seriously believe a Bush collaborated with the Nazi agenda. I mean come on, could both a father and son be elected as president with a legit nazi connection? You just hate them because the msm did and a liberals favorite insult is 'nazi' or 'racist'.

Prescott Bush made the Bush family as we know it today by financing the Nazis. His country was at war, and he got fat and secured his family's power and authority for generations to come by banking for the people who were killing his countrymen and slaughtering millions of innocents.
Bush senior orchestrated the assassination of the last non-fascist president.
Bush junior is responsible for the worst false flag in American history, killing thousands of innocent citizens and using the whole mess as a contact trived excuse to invade countries who had things he wanted.
In case you're wondering how that last one is related to nazis, please Google the Reichstag fire.
n/a AssHatsR-Us 2017-06-06
His family was tied to the Nazi party, but you are still right in the belief that a narrative is being pushed. Lots of people at that time were connected to the Nazi party and lots were business men and well connected people. Such as Henry Ford and Koch brothers. That's how Germany got good at war. Ford helped with the manufacture of war machines and Koch with refineries to fuel them. These 2 are just examples, I am sure the list is huge. But also at the time Nazi's weren't the evil bastards that they came to be. I feel sure it could be argued that they felt the nazi or fascist party was a new patriotic government that was trying to get their country out of a depression and on track to being successful again (and they probably would make some serious coin doing it too.) You also have to remember that pre ww2 there were fascist and communist groups here in the states. I'm not talking about a few nuts that got together but serious groups sponsoring politicians to get elected into office. It wasn't the 2 party system we have now. But with all the bad that fascism turned into and of course those damn commies that were after us, no one wanted to stay on those trains anymore cause you would get blacklisted or worse. McCarthy saw to that and the government's fear mongering game was strong. So most people tried to hide the fact they had anything to do with these groups. So it is a part of history but not necessarily a conspiracy. But hey, I'm no expert, I just really enjoy history and conspiracies.

n/a Hambone_Malone 2017-06-06
There's plenty of links to videos and articles in this thread to make my points. Drug dealing, high treason, war crimes, torture, paedophilia, occult practices, one world government, etc. This list goes on. Your blatant disregard to any Conspiracy involving your beloved Bush family is ridiculous. Are they involved in every little Conspiracy mentioned above? Probably not, but I'm certain that if all was revealed and everything made public, their legacy would be more in line with the Conspiracy theories than with what the MSM fluff pieces tell you. That, I'm certain of.
n/a PeYtOn115 2017-06-06
Yeah, and every other politician ever. Just accept your bitching about it online won't do anything. These people laugh at your petty existence. Just accept we are better off than the rest of the world (being Americans) and the political corruption is just a part of the American experience. I guarantee you have never been directly affected by any of this corruption you complain about. Call out things like the Serbian genocide, or the president of Russia that's been president for what like 20 plus years? Don't talk shit about an American president who did what he could with an inherently corrupt system. I'm done now. Peace out libtards!

The story clearly states, "he lived aboard that submarine for a month, assisting in the rescue of other aviators." As though this was some act of altruism.
I lived aboard a DDG for a few weeks when our carrier pulled out early because of a typhoon and about a hundred of us had to hitch a ride. We had to do work. No one received or ecpected any atta-boys for doing a little work.

George fuckin Bush? Give me a break. He's a God-damned murderer.

That is not what I said. It sure beats bobbing in a Mae West Life Preserver, neither did I mention that no one shoots at submarines...
You don't know shit about when or why I would "piss my shorts."
My whole family was in the Marines and/or Navy since before WWI.

It's choosing to highlight one slice of his life, and the fact that it got such a rediculous amount of upvotes is telling. I guarantee that if someone put a TIL about something nice Hitler did, it would not see above 10 points.

Try it?
He enforced the first public Smoking Smoking Awareness campaign, ran state funded schools (I think all the way through post secondary), he was very spiritual, I'm sure there are lots more you could cherry pick to make him seem like a fair-minded leader interested in progressing his nation and the citizens therein.

How many Americans do you think know for a fact that Bush family was part of a fascist coup to overthrow the democratically elected government of the United States and were exposed?
n/a les_dyxic 2017-06-06
Only the ones paying attention. The Bush family have for generations been members of a British secret society run by foreign spooks and narcotraffickers. Every time one of them gets into public service all hell breaks loose but somehow they're never held accountable. But they will be.

If you posted TIL: George Bush is a war criminal you would get banned
n/a Korlis 2017-06-06
Mainly because that can't be proven. He was never arrested, no charges, historically, he ISN'T a war criminal. You know, since the victors write the history books.
A TIL that mentions he is a coward who bailed on all his crewmates and left them to die is verifiable. That he tried to pack his cabinet with actual Nazis is verifiable. You might even get away with something akin to "TIL there are documents released from the FBI that seem to indicate the George HW Bush may have been instrumental in the assassination of JFK"
n/a Ozark_Patriot 2017-06-06
I highly recommend Roger Stone's Book, The Bush Crime Family, if you haven't read it yet. All kinds of info going back to Samuel and Prescott Bush's war profiteering to Jeb and George W's involvement with the cartel in the '80s. And I'm only a quarter of the way into it.
George Sr.'s oil business was a front for CIA operations in Central America and the Caribbean in the 1950's and 1960's. He may have been a CIA agent himself starting around 1961, or even as early as 1954, though he denies being one before 1975. There are a couple of government documents mentioning "CIA Agent George Bush" going back to 1961. The CIA claims those documents are referring to George William Bush, who was a clerk and claims to have never received the briefing that "CIA Agent George Bush" was given by the FBI regarding the reaction of Cuban Americans to Kennedy's assassination on November 29, 1963.
George Bush has a long history of claiming not to remember where he was when Kennedy was assassinated. He was in Dallas on November 21st, 1963, but not on the 22nd. On November 22nd, six minutes after Kennedy was announced to be dead, he placed a phone call to the FBI from Tyler, Texas, accusing a Houston GOP rival of possibly being the assassin (creating an Alibi for himself? or trying to get revenge?). He had been meeting with known CIA spies and big oilmen who hated Kennedy's politics in the weeks leading up to the assassination. He may have been at a party with said big oilmen, CIA agents, Jack Ruby, and none other than Vice President Lyndon Johnson on the night of the 21st before departing for Tyler, TX. He also was in contact with George de Mohrenschidt, a Russian immigrant who had been asked by the CIA to befriend Oswald and gather information about him in spring of 1963, and he was a longtime friend of ex-CIA director Dulles, who had been fired by Kennedy after the Bay of Pigs (or possibly after Kennedy found out the CIA was planning to carry out terror attacks on US soil to start a war with Cuba).
n/a AfterSchoolPogrom 2017-06-06
As a Republican himself, what's his angle here?
n/a les_dyxic 2017-06-06
Stone's angle? Stone was working for Nixon. Nixon was betrayed by Bush and the CIA. Then there were two assassination attempts on Gerald Ford and another on Reagan.
n/a Ozark_Patriot 2017-06-06
My guess? He still has a grudge against Jeb and George H.W. after working on opposing Republican Presidential campaigns (Trump and Reagan). That or he's just woke now and he realized what terrible people they are. He does say in the book that he supported Bush for Senate in the 1964 and 70 elections, but after meeting him in person he opposed Reagan's choice to pick him as Vice President.

n/a RaakamB 2017-06-06

n/a Yeshua_is_truth 2017-06-06
quick question why are you denying facts and defending ghw bush
n/a RaakamB 2017-06-06
WHAT FACTS!? WHAT AM I DENYING OR DEFENDING!? All OP said was
"I'm so sick of the fucking praise being doled out lately to war criminals murderers and drug runners. That TIL on front page was a fucking disgrace. But hey you know he skydived at 90!? Anything's possible with a healthy supply of young blood I suppose. I hate reddit sometimes"
There is no conspiracy here. Its an opinion on how OP feels about the current status of Reddit.
n/a stumpane 2017-06-06
Hey man, sorry if you feel like I'm shit posting, your point is taken.
I was inferring the conspiracy is that posts like that manipulate people's opinions or perceptions of a truly horrendous individual by highlighting a positive element of his story.
I saw you countered by saying that one could try to do the same about Hitler, but I seriously doubt it. I think you're being a bit naive there. And if you believe it, please do so your self and pm the link to the post. Obviously if it hits the front page I will accept you were right.
n/a RaakamB 2017-06-06
Okay I can see that. I think its more of a defense mechanism to make things and people not seem as bad, especially when that person is not leaving the light.
n/a stumpane 2017-06-06
Can you elaborate a bit on the defense mechanism part? I think I follow what you're saying but not sure...
n/a RaakamB 2017-06-06
Growing up you are told presidents are amazing people. Then you grow up and become informed, now you see them as scum, but in your brain some semblance of you wants them to still be a hero, so little pieces of trivia about a person that has no connection to what the person did seem more comfortable. It gives you insight to the real person and not the person who was in front of the camera or running the country.

He led Operation 40 and supervised killing JFK, he facilitated removing Nixon, he attempted to have Reagan assassinated in coup #3 but took over anyhow, he smuggled drugs with Clinton during Iran-Contra. Over his career he lost elections over and over and over again, but the Rockefellers and his father placed him in positions of great power. His father attempted to buy Smedley Butler to create war for profit, when that failed they moved on to a performer known as Adolf Hitler and gave him $32,000,000.
n/a mennitti 2017-06-06
p.s. His father-in-law was Aleister Crowley.

Just accept we are better off than the rest of the world (being Americans) and the political corruption is just a part of the American experience. I guarantee you have never been directly affected by any of this corruption you complain about. Call out things like the Serbian genocide, or the president of Russia that's been president for what like 20 plus years? Don't talk shit about an American president who did what he could with an inherently corrupt system. I'm done now. Peace out libtards!
