More repulsive white men on currency. Yay!

[–] LoafedBurrito@lemmy.world 1 points 2 hours ago

Nazi's do not belong on currency. Also he was a nobody podcaster. He will be forgotten about and he is just another right wing murder statistic.

What a beautiful way to honor his life's work of self-promotion and trolling.

Anyway, healthcare pls?

[–] limer@lemmy.ml 2 points 7 hours ago

If you work hard and are lucky, then healthcare can be obtained.

[–] yarr@feddit.nl 2 points 6 hours ago

Technically, any image could be printed on new U.S. currency. Slow news day?

GOP plans have the follow-through ratio of a Chris Christie diet plan, so I'll believe it when I see it.

Just collapse already! This is just getting silly at this point.

[–] RizzRustbolt@lemmy.world 8 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

On the new three-dollar bill?

[–] Treczoks@lemmy.world 2 points 16 hours ago

Well, it would be about as legit.

[–] Taleya@aussie.zone 20 points 23 hours ago (1 children)

Might grab one. Stick it in my coin collection next to the reichmarks my poppy picked up while killing nazis

[–] M0oP0o@mander.xyz 5 points 18 hours ago (1 children)

Well you should have to kill a nazi for a trophy. Stolen valour and all that...

[–] Taleya@aussie.zone 3 points 15 hours ago* (last edited 15 hours ago)

kill a nazi to get a coin commemorating a nazi's killing. Hmm. Better get another coin just in case.

[–] Rune_Walsh@lemmy.world 15 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

It would be fun to draw little X's over his eyes on every bill.

[–] T00l_shed@lemmy.world 28 points 22 hours ago

They are coins, so drill holes in the neck

[–] uriel238@lemmy.blahaj.zone 12 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

Isn't the dollar due to collapse due to foreign sanctions against the Trump regime tariffs?

Poetic.

New currency might be plastic.

[–] ivanafterall@lemmy.world 1 points 7 hours ago

GOLD plastic tho.

[–] KarlHungus42@lemmy.world 15 points 23 hours ago

Ironically, the coin will be roughly the same diameter as the hole in his neck

[–] Geobloke@aussie.zone 7 points 20 hours ago

Can't wait to use my kirk bucks at the strippers. It's what he would've wanted

[–] Aceticon@lemmy.dbzer0.com 22 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

Surely toilet paper would be a more appropriate medium to carry his semblance.

[–] SkunkWorkz@lemmy.world 45 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Will probably be a MAGA coin that isn’t even legal tender so Trump can fleece his followers even more.

[–] hOrni@lemmy.world 15 points 1 day ago (2 children)

It'll cost as much as a gold coin but will be made out of zink.

[–] Flocklesscrow@lemmy.zip 5 points 1 day ago (2 children)
[–] SaveTheTuaHawk@lemmy.ca 1 points 7 hours ago

I can't imagine a world without Zinc.

[–] derpgon@programming.dev 2 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

Fake-zinc plated piece of fake iron

[–] nagaram@startrek.website 2 points 18 hours ago

Gilded lead would be so funny.

It will be gold plated to be sold as "gold coin"

[–] HubertManne@piefed.social 14 points 1 day ago

these people have no sense of history.

[–] SaveTheTuaHawk@lemmy.ca 33 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Fast forward to 2030...

" That will be 13 Kirks"

" Here's a Rogan and a Shapiro, keep the change"

[–] Evil_Shrubbery@thelemmy.club 5 points 1 day ago (1 children)

"A trump" will be used to refer to both a 100 monies or a rape.

Isn't the word "minted" not more correct as this is about commemorative coins?

Making the currency even more worthless...

[–] letsgo2themall@lemmy.world 14 points 1 day ago (1 children)

if they do, just draw penises on his face.

Never Harriet Tubman though.

I wonder if there's a reason why? Anyone know???

[–] verdi@feddit.org 1 points 7 hours ago

Too much money for the extra ink /s

[–] scarabic@lemmy.world 75 points 1 day ago (1 children)

She rescued what, a few thousand people? Kirk offended millions!

[–] Zachariah@lemmy.world 51 points 1 day ago

Mysteriously, so did Harriet Tubman.

Silver dollar coins? Can't wait to buy as many as I can so I can melt them down and use them as Antifa challenge coins or something along those lines.

I hate the idiots in charge of this country.

Does anyone living in a sane country wanna do a greencard marriage thing? I'm a good cook, enjoy keeping my space clean, and am a fairly experienced flatterer, if that sweetens the pot any.

.....pretty please? :(

I assume Charlie-Kirk-Lied is going to be the party anthem too?

[–] khannie@lemmy.world 37 points 1 day ago (4 children)

Ah lads..... You've gone too far now. C'mon. How in the name of sweet baby Jesus, Mary, Joseph and all his carpenter friends is this not an onion? C'mon now. Seriously.
