I read he was called Kissinger because he wouldn't stop kissing all the cute boys on the lips in the white house

Fucker lives to be 100 years old didn't he?
He only does like last year or some shit

The only reason I've ever heard given for why people hate Kissinger are taking his quotes out of context.

is this the fabled modern machiavelli or something?

He's notorious because he was Nixon's Grand Vizier, he was evil but nothing he oversaw was out of the ordinary in the context of US foreign policy

He acted like the smartest guy in the room for doing realpolitik shit but a lot of his realpolitik policies were things that were extremely damaging to America in the long-term and only mildly annoyed the Soviets in the short-term (e.g. supporting Islamism in Pakistan against India, supporting engagement with China, supporting Pol fucking Pot after he was deposed)

No he was a thoroughly average run of the mill Washington goon, he only gets so much attention because he was obsessed with the media paying attention to him

Letting China basically do the NEP on steroids was the funniest thing. Fucking moron doomed America with that
