DUBAI (Reuters) -Hopes are fading that Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi and his foreign minister have survived a helicopter crash in mountainous terrain and icy weather, an Iranian official said on Monday after search teams located the wreckage. "President Raisi's helicopter was completely burned in the crash ... unfortunately, all passengers are feared dead," the official told Reuters. Rescue teams fought blizzards and difficult terrain through the night to reach the wreckage in East Azerbaijan province in the early hours of Monday.

        All the people who will suffer and probably die as a result of the instability. Do you think that the world gets better when evil men die?

          Likely.

          Germany ended just fine after Hitler demise.

          But you probably mean very near future.

            They actually spent quite a few years (50, give or take a few) snapping back so hard the other direction the government was taking children from non-native Germans and giving them to pedophiles to rape for their whole childhood. So yes Hitler dying was good but instability will most always lead to more suffering.

              So you are arguing that things would be better off if Hitler had won? That’s your actual, sincere argument here? That evil people exist, but killing them results in geopolitical instability so it is terrible when they die?

              And you’re citing some fringe pedophile psychologist the 60’s? I know that you literally just learned about him here on Lemmy because a post about him recently went viral too. Absolutely nothing about the wiki suggests that Hitler’s death had anything to do with his disturbed experiments.

              Fuck that. Kill fascists. The constant right-wing deferral to pedophilic disgust is a tactic most of us recognize now. Your weird defense of Hitler here is just an especially egregious example of this.

                Never said that, I wish Hitler was killed much sooner. Germany wasn’t just perfectly fine after though, obviously agreed it was better than nazi germany, but issues arise out of instability. Which was being denied.

                And I’m less concerned about what this weird pedo was doing individually, moreso the government corruption that allowed for it and many similar cases for decades. But I guess you don’t want to protect children from rapists
