Ah, good ole mortality. Death is promise for everyone, Putin. Hopefully Trump gets humbled by death's visit as well.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 3 days ago

Yeah, but who hasn't placed too much trust in a fart before? It's easily done.

Is there any better source on this?

Daily Star UK is a questionable source. MSN publishes articles from many bad sources such as this one, so when I stumble upon a link to MSN, I typically search for a better second source.

Thanks.

The Irish Mirror does describe this as a rumour. The rumours about health issues are all over the place: thyroid cancer, Parkinson's disease, incontinence, cardiac arrest...

I don't wish him well, but either it's a bunch of random rumours, or he's very seriously I'll.

If someone poisoned him with radiation if would be some kind of poetic justice

[–] [email protected] 17 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Putin getting intense radiation poisoning and spending a few weeks literally disintegrating while being kept alive in a hospital wouldn't be great. But it would be very close.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 3 days ago (1 children)

It wouldn't be terrible either.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 3 days ago

It wouldn't be amazing, just as close to amazing as you can get.

Who is the doctor that resuscitated pootin?? Dude, first order of medicine is "do no harm." Reviving a bloodthirsty despot is 100% fucking harm.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I understand the sentiment behind this, but FTR, the Hippocratic Oath is specifically towards patients: to treat them equally with the sole goal of improving their condition(s).

Hating on one particular doctor fulfilling their oath is misguided unless you want proving you're worthy of treatment before any doctor will help you to become the norm.

[–] [email protected] -4 points 3 days ago

The hippocratic oath is mostly about paying the living expenses of your teacher and their family and only teaching medicine to their sons, your own sons, and the slaves of both houses.

The prohibition on poisoning only applies when ordered to do so by someone else. But it does prohibit surgery and abortions.

It does require medical privacy, which is about the only good thing about it.

Additionally, the famous "First, do no harm" it's most known for isn't actually part of the oath.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 4 days ago

Where is this coming from? I hope its true and that he is already dead, but I cant see reputable sources talking about this or Zelensky's comments on his health.

[–] [email protected] 52 points 4 days ago (4 children)

Can't help but wonder what happens if both he and Trump keel over in the next 6 months.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 days ago

I feel like second in commands would come up rather quickly, for trump atleast

[–] [email protected] 24 points 4 days ago (1 children)

I already have two bottles to celebrate.

Yeeaaaahhh, about that

What so you think will happen when Putin dies? You don't believe the answer to be "democracy, freedom and happiness", right? There will be a power vacuum, there will be infighting, who knows, maybe even a small civil war to figure out who's next, but whoever it will be, it will be bad and possibly worse than Putin. At least Putin wasn't suicidal, I've seen possible candidates who will happily nuke the US and Russia into oblivion just for shits 'n giggles, shall we say.

What do you think will happen when cheeto explodes in a fat explosion? I guarantee you that Musk will try shit, his son's will try shit, possibly, hopefully killing eachother in the process, a bunch of other retards like hegseth or that blonde-whats-her-name idiot from Kansas, I believe... Vance obviously will try to usurp power, and they'll all final because they're just really really db people, but I guarantee you this: no one will actually be working on US democracy.

So those two dead will make the world a little better because two shit stains will have been removed from the gene pool but the world in general might dive into a shitshow

[–] [email protected] 9 points 3 days ago

If there is balkanization, good. If there is civil war, good. They wanna kill, let them kill eachother instead of others. Russians finally pull their heads out of their asses and become a true democracy and join eu? The best possible outcome.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) (2 children)

Nah you're seeing this a little pessimistic. It's clear to anyone that there will be political in fighting in such a case, but claiming and retaining power is not easy, especially under the conditions that Russia is in right now. Different interests will need to compete for political power, and the resulting government will surely not align with the West's vision of democratic rule. However, these are the moments of opportunity for the people. Nobody in the country comes even close to Putins cult status. Anything can happen.

Wouldn't it be funny if make that 180Β° towards democracy like the US did towards fascism? :)

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 days ago

pessimistic

Have you seen anything of Russian history? If I had to summarize all of Russian history in one word, pessimistic would be it

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 days ago

We're in bizaro world. So wouldnt suprise me a bit if russia becomes the pinnacle of democracy and leader of the free world after the US falls apart from the seams.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 days ago

I don't think there would be much of a power vacuum at all. Putin is hardly the head of the organizing that is all in the Kremlin. He's more puppet than leader. His death is probably already accounted for.

[–] [email protected] 21 points 4 days ago

Champagne prices would skyrocket.

Did he really piss himself?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Easy fix with "methylene blue!". Please go Google that up. It cures everything! Plus it makes your poop blue. Or maybe it only makes your poop blue and gives you diarrhea. One of the two.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 days ago

Can permanently stain your cartridge blue also.
