The vast majority of cattle ranchers voted for the MAGA shitheads. I have sympathy for the cattle suffering from the screwworm and wish they could stampede the shit out of the ranchers.

[–] SnarkoPolo@lemmy.world 12 points 7 hours ago

If you're in the states and you're worth less than 50 million, we will all be living in third world poverty, too soon.

doubles down to blame Biden.

Ok, sure. Maybe. But Biden isn't president now. Don't point fingers. Do something productive. Don't cut the parts of government that are supposed to help with this kind of stuff.

[–] AppleTea@lemmy.zip 15 points 6 hours ago

No, this is a direct result of Musk cutting USAID. It's not even a first term consequence, this is fully on this current Trump administration, within this electoral cycle.

[–] Loce@lemmy.world 2 points 4 hours ago

You expect rationality and sanity where there's none. But, one begs the question, didn't you pay attention at all previous year and half? Nothing has changed, nothing will change, it's the Biden's fault for literally anything bad... And ofc "crazy far left lunatics". Zero accountability, zero responsibility. President is not well, even if we forget about him being a pedophile and a criminal and a crook, he has a dementia and can barely keep eyes open... Sleepy Donny... It's hard to fucking watch.

[–] mrmisses@lemmy.world 1 points 4 hours ago

Ok, sure. Maybe.

No. Wrong. Not at all. Trump did this 100%

[–] Lemminary@lemmy.world 10 points 9 hours ago

Funny how none of this was a problem until he started blaming Biden.

You know all those feral hogs Cody at Some More News has been freaking out over for like a decade now?

They're the vector.

That... they're almost certainly how the worm is popping up in multiple places that are too far away for direct connections to previous specific locations to make sense.

... I feel bad for Cody's blood pressure and hairline.

Anyway, beef ain't gonna be on the menu much longer, boys.

[–] nullspace@lemmy.world 5 points 10 hours ago (2 children)

Well, I actually like the way the beyond burger patties taste. Maybe now they'll actually have a shot when they don't cost more than the actual meat.

[–] glitch1985@lemmy.world 1 points 1 hour ago

When grilled and smothered with bacon and cheese they're not bad at all.

[–] sp3ctr4l@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 8 hours ago* (last edited 8 hours ago)

I mean, I think I tried one once, thought it was ok, definitely didn't hate it... but yeah, yep. Going to be an interesting shock to the American diet.

I've been saying unironically need to figure out how to do the bug pizzas from CyberPunk 77 for a while now... because ... meat just is going to get more and more expensive...

[–] sportsjorts@lemmy.zip 43 points 12 hours ago

This is all Trump and Elon and doge. Good job fuck nuts for axing USAID you dumb pedophiles.

[–] wonderingwanderer@sopuli.xyz 50 points 13 hours ago

"Why did Joe Biden shit in my pants?"

[–] DanceMomsSavedMe@lemmy.zip 66 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

The year is 2367 and the economy collapses.

It is Obama and Joe Bidens fault.

[–] UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 23 points 13 hours ago* (last edited 13 hours ago)

It's more likely than you'd think. I'm old enough to remember when John McCain and Mitch McConnell blamed the 2008 collapse on Jimmy Carter's FHA reforms. Also remember getting an earful about how FDR turned a minor recession into a Great Depression by abandoning the good governance principles of Calvin Coolidge, and that we were still paying the economic price to this day.

[–] Lushed_Lungfish@lemmy.ca 28 points 15 hours ago (13 children)

Here's my take as a military person.

Okay, fine, it's Biden's fault you have screw worm in the States.

He's not in power anymore. How will YOU solve it?

[–] Fedizen@lemmy.world 1 points 1 hour ago* (last edited 1 hour ago)

AI will fix plz invest all ur moneys in AI. Its not a scam.

[–] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 15 points 12 hours ago

The administration is just repeating the party line: "The buck stops somewhere else"

[–] UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 12 points 13 hours ago* (last edited 13 hours ago)

He’s not in power anymore. How will YOU solve it?

Gotta vote Republican harder this time. There's still too many Democrats in government. Once we've gotten rid of all the Democrats, then we can implement the magical policies that will solve all our problems.

That is, of course, assuming there aren't any fifth columnist liberal voters who try to obstruct us. We might need to get rid of them, too.

[–] Sam_Bass@lemmy.world 14 points 14 hours ago

thats the problem. they dont know how to fix it so they blame others who are powerless to fix it and that gets them off the hook in their view

[–] ZILtoid1991@lemmy.world 5 points 11 hours ago

Hungarian here, Fidesz blamed previous prime minister Ferenc Gyurcsány for all of its incompetence, up until the Russo-Ukrainian war started.

[–] Thebeardedsinglemalt@lemmy.world 17 points 15 hours ago (2 children)

He’s not in power anymore. How will YOU solve it?

That's the thing, they won't solve it. All they know how to do is blame blame blame blame blame

Simple. He’ll wish it away the same way he did Covid. When that fails he’ll have RFK start telling the world that Ivermectin kills them.

The buck stops ~~here~~ at Biden.

[–] CharlesDarwin@lemmy.world 26 points 16 hours ago (7 children)

Any time the Dow ticks up, regardless of the reason - that's the result of Pumpkinhead's financial genius, ability to make great "deals", and probably because of his 16 inch girthy schlong.

Anything bad - that's Biden. Also probably Obama. And Bill. And Hillary. Maybe even Carter.

Nothing can ever fail because a Republican was in charge or because conservative ideology was in play. If things fail under Republicans, it's because they were RINOs and/or they didn't go hard enough on the conservatism.

It works just like Communism that way.

George Orwell's work might be overrated, but his depiction in 1984 of how The Inner Party blames everything bad on either the military enemy of the week or Emanuel Goldstein is a prime example of pop-cult leadership.

Watching the US collapse from the outside while enjoying bottomless margaritas & nachos is def the way to go

[–] some_guy 9 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

It's not my fault that I didn't complete my work by the clearly labeled deadline. Tom, at my old job, was a lazy dick and made me less productive because he wrote bad notes that didn't tell me what was needed next. That's why I didn't finish this thing that you asked for last week.
