You can fucking have him… If he’s got any blood left in him and it’s not all just McDonald’s brand cholesterol™, you’re welcome to it.
Unfortunately, they will absolutely take the blood of kids from low income families who got duped by sociopathic high school recruiters in his stead.
Sadly, I had quite a few friends fall for it when Dubya did this. Surely we’ll take care of them when they come back this time…
Narrator: We will not take care of them when they come back this time.
Just sayin, were already gonna have to rebuild part of the White House…
I wouldn’t see any need to rebuild mar lago tho
what if we rebuilt maralago as a skate park and public restroom. so people could ollie and shit on his grave
Transitional housing for abused women and children would be the ultimate slap in the face.
Transitional housing for abused women and children
i’d agree with you, but a very important feature of those is that we don’t tell anyone but the people who need its services where it is. like, i was ran some homeless shelters. two of them were for abused women and children. I still haven’t got a clue where they are. only people in the organization who knew were people who needed to know and i was not one of them.
Or a glass museum
what type of glass?
That depends on the molecular composition of the sand at Mar-a-lago
ahhh, now i understand.
Conflicted on who I’m supporting here.
why? all nations are evil. that’s a given. trump’s run to be another hitler has involved partnership with genocide and kidnapping and invasion of multiple nations.
he’s clearly the bigger evil here.
iran is a piece of shit but they’re not a worldwide imperialist terrorist organization actively invading other nations.
iran is a piece of shit but they’re not a worldwide imperialist terrorist organization actively invading other nations.
But they have been supplying drones to a worldwide imperialist terrorist organization actively invading other nations…
We can say both sides are evil, it’s okay. Nuance is rare enough already as it is without needing to discourage it when we see it.
all nations are evil. but the one in which I am currently stuck I am allowed, at least currently, to recognize is doing harm to the world the likes of which has never before been seen.
Sure, but that doesn’t mean we have to choose one to support. Saying the IRGC is evil doesn’t imply support for the US invasion, and saying the US invasion is evil doesn’t imply support for the IRGC.
It’s like sanity has gone out there window. Let’s not forget that not supporting either side is always an option.
i do not support any side. what gave that opinion? i am just currently reacting to how deplorable the side i am stuck under is behaving.
I wasn’t trying to say you in particular are choosing a side. Just venting about how on lemmy in general, a lot of people overreact if I say anything even slightly critical of the Iranian regime.
Even before this US/Israeli invasion, on a post about iranian student protesters, people were accusing me of being a zionist because it expressed support for the Iranian students who were protesting…
Yes, the current regime in the US is deplorable. The regime in the Knesset is also deplorable. But the Iranian regime is deplorable too. Like, it’s entirely possible for all those things to be true, and they are…
Iran loves to issue empty threats.
They’ve been crippled. Their ability to project artillery outside their borders is receding with every passing day. As soon as the US/Israel offer them a seat at the bargaining table, they’ll come rushing back just like they have every other time the US/Israel has pushed their shit in.
If you love getting rug-pulled, go ahead and root for Iran.
If you want to cheer for the team with the kind of blood-lust necessary to obliterate a civilization, you’d be better off cheering for the US and Israel.
The war just started. How do you even know what tricks they have up their sleeves? You think dropping big explosives from the air is the only form of warfare? How did that work out for you in Vietnam? This is the same hubris Putin demonstrated. Don’t jump the gun.
the US has quadrupled military hardware production. That extra juice is for Russia, Putin will be out of the Kremlin in 2 to 3 years. He does not have to like it.
You think dropping big explosives from the air is the only form of warfare? How did that work out for you in Vietnam?
Killed a whole lot of people
Yeah. Killing little school girls is all you can claim as an achievement! After all, little school girls are the field of expertise of your supreme commander, aren’t they?
We killed a whole lot of school girls in Korea, Vietnam, Afghanistan, and Iraq as well. Didn’t get the same kind of coverage, because the executive branch (and the public) were more disciplined in messaging.
But I think a lot of warfare is, at the end of the day, a libidinal need to “mow the grass” as the genocidal IDF leadership put it. Kill your enemies. Kill their families. Kill their kids. Depopulate territory of opposition.
Do I think dropping big explosives from the air works toward that end? Absolutely.
I never thought of the US as a benevolent invasion force. I knew they massacred ordinary people. And clearly, you’re part of the problem here.
But I’m not talking about that. Despite all the bombs you drop, you fail to achieve anything in the end. Vietnam, Afghanistan, Iraq. Is there one invasion you can say you’re proud of? Perhaps psychopaths like you can, based entirely on the blood shed. But for human beings, you just keep sacrificing soldiers till you withdraw with your tail tucked behind you. You create powerful enemies who go on to cause even more damage to you. It’s your shortsightedness and simplistic thinking that defeats you in the end.
Meanwhile, your equating human lives to grass, is just lack of humanity. I just pity you. But don’t believe for a second that you’re immune to it. One day it will be someone else doing it to you.
But I’m not talking about that.
You and the rest of the US national media.
Despite all the bombs you drop, you fail to achieve anything in the end.
Tell it to Raytheon stockholders. Hell, tell it to Facebook stockholders.
More importantly, tell it to every single Palestinian rendered homeless by the Nakba and the subsequent seventy years of genocidal policy. Israel exists in its current state because they slaughtered hundreds of thousands of Palestinians and took their homes, their farms, and cut off their access to Arab neighbors.
Meanwhile, your equating human lives to grass
Mowing the grass (Hebrew: כיסוח דשא) is a metaphor used to describe periodic Israeli attacks on the Gaza Strip to manage the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
The term was coined by Efraim Inbar and Eitan Shamir, two columnists for The Jerusalem Post and strategic studies researchers.
Naftali Bennett referred to the idea in a speech in 2018 when he said “מי שלא מכסח את הדשא, הדשא מכסח אותו” (‘He who does not mow the grass, the grass mows him’)
I see that you have more downvotes than upvotes. It shows you that people do not like what you say even if it is true.
well you can simply vote out trump at your next election if you wish
you can’t vote out a dictatorship
the dictatorship is capitalism here in the US. it also can’t be voted out.
It could’ve been. But dumbfucks threw a tantrum over Harris.
This is on their heads. Never let it be forgotten.
don’t forget: the ppl who voted 3rd party.
even if they voted for harris she still would have lost. she did a piss poor job at her campaign. if the primary actually picked her instead of joe dropping she’d likely have done much better.
lol… all the best countries in the world have capitalism
…so do all the worst countries in the world. In fact, all the countries have it. That’s the problem.
the worst country in the world is north korea and it’s communist, so you could have it worse
Communist in name only
lol you wish
Not all countries have the power our oligarchs have. They’re trying everywhere, but they have succeeded in the US.
This is just blame shifting, you could have voted for Kamala, you voted for Trump, this is not anyone elses fault, nor is it capitalisms which functions perfectly well in hundreds of countries
And you could kick out Rupert Murdock, but you personally haven’t, so I guess that’s your fault.
sure, I guess I better start blaming capitalism for all my woes now
Hey Iran!
Don’t forget about the rest of his family and all the sycophants that prop him up.
UPDATE: (no trade for us, I guess)
Worth a shot at least. You miss 100% of the shots you don’t take, after all. Nice try!
Side note: I like how they dress like Obi-wan
We will absolutely not regret sinking it if you do that. How many warships will it take to do the whole line of succession?
Seriously. What do we need to do to get you to follow through on that? Is there a go fund me?
It would be nice to see, but I still wouldn’t have paid 130 human beings just to get another nation do something that should be done by an American. We can’t let these foreigners take our jobs or something.
Be my guest.
We cannot forget that the administration is actively trying to architect a tragedy against Americans. It is high treason.

Join the club guys.
Don’t threaten me with a good time.
Oh no please stop don’t
Deal!
I hope they take it on the republican government personally. No point in fighting with an over-funded military lead by a christo-fascist, when you can take it out on retirement age old white folk who had the power to stop the war and decided to lick a pedophiles boots instead.
