They didn't abandon it. They lie constantly. Why the fuck would we assume they have learned better? ... Meh, bad journalism.

He'll pave over the ocean like he did the Rose Garden.

Well that’s good news, at least.

And honestly, that was such a stupid fucking hill for him to want to die on - and he wants to die on a whole fucking lot of stupid hills.

[–] IratePirate@feddit.org 1 points 12 hours ago

I don't care about the hill part. Get on with the dying already!

If only he would have a heart attack on one of them

Soon, friend, soon.

What I fear is that... He is just a metastase of a much deeper problem.

Even if he dies, nothing will change unless we fucking change it.

[–] SocialMediaRefugee@lemmy.world 2 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

Sadly there is a long line of trash lined up behind him.

[–] IratePirate@feddit.org 3 points 12 hours ago

We know. And yet: I'd take great peace from not having his demented rambles in my newsfeed every day, reminding me that this diapered buffoon is the leader of the U.S.

That's this universe we live in, the powers that be actively fighting progress, yet progress still is made. I'm grateful to those who progress technology and apply it to benefit humanity. The Drump administration just keeps losing.

Depends on the fucking technology doesn't it? Most of it is capitalism slop. WE HAVE REINVENTED THE FORK! BY REMOVING A PRONG!

(it's been shown according to a study that I found in my anus that three prongs are superior and makes you healthier and saves me 25% on the production cost, isn't capitalism JUST FUCKING DANDY how did we even invent things before it?)

As long as the progress is profitable.

[–] relativestranger@feddit.nl 1 points 19 hours ago

'profitable' for him, as in bribes and 'donations' from specific persons to allow such projects in specific places, and for specific purposes.

[–] jaykrown@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Something that may be profitable to some may be costly to others. Like solar power is to coal companies.

They're not really fighting progress, they're fighting whatever they don't own that's competing with what they do own. Whether that's progress or convention doesn't matter to them. At some point if the other thing wins they switch tactics and start buying it.

It truly was quixotic.

And then Orange will claim they support wind energy when the energy cost drop.

[–] Soulphite@reddthat.com 26 points 1 day ago (5 children)

The fuckin pedophile will claim to have helped invent wind energy and his entire base will cheer on in triumph. He'd go go on further to exclaim that democrats were secretly trying to pressure him into stopping it, that's why the push back at first but he prevailed and now the Earth is saved from evil Obama who tried to destroy it.

There has never been a bigger windbag, so he may have a legitimate claim in there somewhere.

Nah, just shifting gears. The old fight was to stop it, the new fight will be to own it.
