So what do US fisheries use now? Chinese data?

[–] StillAlive@piefed.world 17 points 3 hours ago

Meh. Kamala would've done the same thing. Or so I've been told by the wise people on the internet.

[–] Jiral@lemmy.org 15 points 3 hours ago* (last edited 3 hours ago)

I guess the US will have to become more dependent on European earth and climate observation systems then, because a lot of industries actually need those. (unless they prefer other foreign services of course)

He heard "Bouys" and thought they said "Boys" and was like "Bring 'em to me!"

[–] ol_capt_joe@piefed.ee 32 points 5 hours ago (5 children)

That greasy fuck... Everything he touches turns to shit. How is he still alive?

[–] Diplomjodler3@lemmy.world 4 points 1 hour ago

He's held together by nothing but malice.

[–] FuglyDuck@lemmy.world 19 points 3 hours ago

He shook hands with Death and Death turned to shit.

[–] Astrealix@lemmy.world 12 points 4 hours ago (3 children)

I mean, more than normal amounts of people have tried to kill him

[–] birdwing@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 9 minutes ago

The ideal would be for him to choke on a hamburger. That'd be the most poetic.

[–] ZkhqrD5o@lemmy.world 1 points 51 minutes ago

Understandable reaction.

[–] stretch2m@infosec.pub 1 points 1 hour ago

Depending on who you believe.

Evil never dies, unfortunately.

[–] Senseless@feddit.org 4 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

He'll die evnetually. Hopefully it's slow and painful.

[–] Rothe@piefed.social 6 points 3 hours ago

Sure, but he is doing all this for the corporation oligarch overlords. They are the ones benefiting from all this (Trump takes his cut of course), and they will want to keep benefiting after he dies.

[–] radix@lemmy.world 72 points 7 hours ago (2 children)

Covid numbers wouldn't be so bad if we stop testing, and ocean health won't get worse if we stop measuring.

Kill that messenger!

[–] cybervseas@lemmy.world 16 points 6 hours ago (2 children)

More like seize all the pens so no one can write a message in the first place.

[–] FistingEnthusiast@lemmy.world 2 points 1 hour ago

He can't read anyway

[–] wyldrstallyns@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 5 hours ago

Is that why? I just assumed he hoarded pens because he can't spell and yet neeeds to have the hyuujest mass of peen anywhere.

[–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 3 points 4 hours ago

Also stop monitoring other vaccination related disease, and stop testing on SAID diseases, and watching ZOONITIC diseases in other coutnries, at the behest of MR worm-brains.

[–] Cruxifux@feddit.nl 45 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

God damnit man, all this fucking guy does is horrible shit.

[–] wesker@lemmy.sdf.org 35 points 6 hours ago (3 children)

How many decades do you suspect this admin is going to single-handedly set the US back?

[–] FistingEnthusiast@lemmy.world 2 points 1 hour ago

Centuries

The civilised world just wants 'Murica to fuck off, shut up and sit in the corner eating crayons

[–] Cruxifux@feddit.nl 38 points 6 hours ago (2 children)

I’m 36. I fully expect to be dead before things begin improving for the working class in north America as the result of this regime.

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

Considering Regan, that sounds about right but also way off somehow.

[–] Quexotic@infosec.pub 4 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

I wonder if a 9 yo will see brighter days. I won't be surprised if we all have to love underground before I die

[–] unknown@piefed.social 1 points 54 minutes ago

Better start digging that bunker now yo.

The upcoming el nino and blue ocean event/s are going to seriously start moving the timelines up for all this collapsey apocalypse shit, and we're already well into 'faster than expected' territory as it is.

[–] wyldrstallyns@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 5 hours ago

Eh. I'm old enough to know it's all fuckery, all the way down.

[–] pack@sh.itjust.works 31 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

It is bad. But its sooooo on fucking brand. If there isn't some "respected body" to suggest what you did is bad, then you did nothing wrong. He doesn't hate climate science past it stops him from doing what he wants. But if you can frame it in a way that motivates people against him (less fisheries means less sport fishing, less wild areas means less hunting, no snap benefits means more crime) you nip away at his base, and he doesnt have a ton of support. its marginal vs the voting public, even in midterms.

[–] wyldrstallyns@lemmy.dbzer0.com -5 points 5 hours ago (3 children)

Whoa whoa whoa. "No SNAP == more crime"? 🤬 That's some self-hate prop BS, but I can understand how it feels factual. 😢

[–] FistingEnthusiast@lemmy.world 2 points 1 hour ago

You should be ashamed to use that name

Bill & Ted understood empathy and that things aren't black & white

[–] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.dbzer0.com 8 points 2 hours ago

No SNAP == more crime"? 🤬 That's some self-hate prop BS

On the contrary. The vast majority of crime is the result of poverty and social desperation.

"Criminals" aren't a separate breed of contemptible human. They're mostly regular people doing what they feel they have to in order to make it through the day/week/month/year/life.

It stands to reason that crimes of desperation such as shoplifting groceries, petty enrichment crimes, and drug use will happen more often when people lose their lifelines to barely being able to feed themselves and their families.

That's not a "poor people are criminal scum" thing.

It's a "the vast majority of crime is a result of poverty and other social issues putting regular people into difficult situations where they're more likely to have to/think they have to break the law to get by" thing.

[–] pupbiru@aussie.zone 11 points 3 hours ago

when people are forced to choose starvation or shoplifting, there’s not a great deal of choice there

it’s not self hate: it’s an acknowledgment that SNAP is survival, and people will find a way to survive with or without it… without it, it’s just far less fair and measurable

[–] GreenKnight23@lemmy.world 6 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

personally, I'm rooting for the collapse at this point.

the best way to defeat an infection is a fever.

[–] zakobjoa@lemmy.world 3 points 22 minutes ago (1 children)

Well.

A lot of the poor people are going to die and certainly almost none of the ones responsible.

We can still change.

Can. Won't – but can.

[–] GreenKnight23@lemmy.world 1 points 2 minutes ago

I think you underestimate the violent spirit of angry dumb people who thirst for "justice" when they realize they have been wronged.

[–] redsand@infosec.pub 13 points 5 hours ago

I see they heard about the AMOC and thought up a fool proof plan to stop any Day After Tomorrow plot. Get rid of the warning system the scientists used in that movie.

[–] panda_abyss@lemmy.ca 16 points 6 hours ago* (last edited 6 hours ago)

Just immensely sad.

Pollution won’t bring back America’s golden age, empower people to have prosperity and achieve their dreams will.

And America is thoroughly beaten down and depressed today.
