[–] Lushed_Lungfish@lemmy.ca 34 points 2 months ago (10 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? 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. permalink fedilink source parent [–] ZILtoid1991@lemmy.world 6 points 2 months ago Hungarian here, Fidesz blamed previous prime minister Ferenc Gyurcsány for all of its incompetence, up until the Russo-Ukrainian war started. permalink fedilink source parent [–] IphtashuFitz@lemmy.world 5 points 2 months ago He's not in power anymore. How will YOU solve it? 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. permalink fedilink source parent [–] Fedizen@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago* AI will fix plz invest all ur moneys in AI. Its not a scam. permalink fedilink source parent [–] backalleycoyote@lemmy.today 4 points 2 months ago (1 child) I mean, as a military person, aren’t you currently involved in a war with Iran that’s Obama’s fault? Conservatism is fueled by personal greed at every level, from the most powerful to the poorest voter empowering the people they think they share a tribe with in the expectation prosperity will trickle down. They all lack personal accountability and share a consensus that any negative outcome from an action that was clearly their’s, it will be blamed on whoever is currently a convenient target for their disappointment. Run out of real people to blame? Oh, it was the devil. You’ll get no solutions because they don’t care about the hubris as long as it’s not directly affecting them. Flesh eating maggots have no impact on Trump’s day to day life, he doesn’t give a fuck if they infect his constituents or destroy their herd, he knows they’ll still vote for him next time he runs. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Lushed_Lungfish@lemmy.ca 3 points 2 months ago (1 child) I'm not in the American military.
