Well this is a nice reminder he’s still a POS

[–] osanna@lemmy.vg 4 points 2 days ago (1 children)

remember that time when he listed only one product on his shop front on his website, and it was a swastika on a shirt?

What a piece of shit nazi scum

[–] NOT_RICK@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Yup. He’s apologized for that and blamed his Bipolar disorder diagnosis on that, but I question how genuine he is.

No mental health issue is an excuse for being an asshole, a fascist or a criminal. Depression doesn't give people an excuse to kill, autism doesn't give people an excuse to rape, etc.

[–] cmbabul@slrpnk.net 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I fully believe he’s bipolar, he’s well past receiving any grace because of it

[–] NOT_RICK@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

Yeah I believe he has it, I just don’t think he’s actually sorry. He’s just sorry he’s lost relevance

Hey Ukraine. Can you do the funny?

Thanks in advance

[–] ThePantser@sh.itjust.works 25 points 2 days ago

Hope he stops and really takes in the view out a nice tall building. I hope he has a nice trip this fall.

[–] Noite_Etion@lemmy.world 18 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Ukraine has such an opportunity here, please take it.

[–] feddylemmy@lemmy.world 0 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Ukraine killing someone from the US would be a political clusterfuck.

[–] SapphironZA@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 day ago

Not kill, just humiliate.

[–] Aurenkin@sh.itjust.works 17 points 2 days ago

Great idea! He should tour some Wildberries warehouses, I hear they've been highly innovative in their shift to the cloud.

[–] buddascrayon@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

All across Russia they are waiting in line for literally hours just to get enough gas to last them for the week. And this idiot expects these people to be able to afford to go to his concert?

This is going to be one of the most hilarious fails in the history of entertainment.

The Russians have a chance to go after some actual nazis here.

Would be a shame if Ukraine was to drop some drones on the venue before it was populated....or just do everyone a favor and drone this fucking idiot

2013 for me

For one thing, it's just trash, for another the dude has been putting his narcissistic complexes out on display in plain text for literally his whole career.

[–] DarrinBrunner@lemmy.world 8 points 2 days ago

Is he taking the globe stage with him? I think he should just move there. I'm sure Putin wouldn't send HIM to the frontline.

[–] rustyfish@piefed.world 3 points 2 days ago

„Useful idiot” doesn’t cut it.

He is a complete dipshit of epic proportions who is also mentally challenged and doesn’t take his medication to combat his condition. He is the guy who makes the dumbest person you know look clever.

I am actually surprised he didn’t suck russian dick sooner.

[–] ChicoSuave@lemmy.world 5 points 2 days ago

In this economy?

Good luck. Not very difficult guy to indoctrinate in Russian army.

[–] Lucidlethargy@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 days ago (2 children)

The Russians fought the Nazi's, too... Why would they watch this guy?

[–] doo@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 day ago

They fought Nazis after starting the ww2 together with the Nazis and dividing the Europe for two years after that. They never been anti Nazi per se, they just ran out of space to expand.

[–] boonhet@sopuli.xyz 6 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Uh you do realize Russia's got plenty of neonazis and the reason they fought the nazis wasn't ideological but geopolitical anyway? Jews were repressed in Russia too, just not outright genocided like in Germany.

[–] deft@lemmy.wtf 4 points 1 day ago

Right? People act like the Soviet Union was against nazis.

They literally tried to ally with them. They'll tell you Stalin didn't like Hitler, so fuckin what? Stalin didn't even like his fellow Russians ffs. Dude was a piece of shit
