Yeah. That's what you get when your leader prioritized loyalty over competence.

That's not what he said. He said

America first

you know, like a list.

America first, then South America, Europe, Asia.....

They really should learn their ABCs then, cuz Afghanistan would be first alphabetically.

First in the firing line.

As though any of this is accidental.

"Incompetence Everywhere"... wasn't that the Orange Pedophile's campaign slogan?

[–] resipsaloquitur@lemmy.world 24 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

And courruption. Don't forget corruption.

Fair.

But imagine if they were competent.

[–] WolfmanEightySix@piefed.social 7 points 3 hours ago

It’s not incompetence, it’s deliberate.

[–] umbrella@lemmy.ml 8 points 3 hours ago

not incompetence. they just simply didn't care.

Are the Israelis still turning away folks from the shelters that don't look like them? They did that last year.

Hard to tell. I saw this the other day: https://x.com/hippyygoat/status/2028821826499903592

Sorry it's on X but I can't find any other source. So it may be sensationalist, recycled from 2025, or made up.

Regardless — sorry, zhongguoren, but you aren't the chosen people.

So which is worse: being stuck in Israel, or stuck in the US?

[–] resipsaloquitur@lemmy.world 18 points 4 hours ago (2 children)

Israel has socialized medicine, at least.

[–] UnspecificGravity@piefed.social 7 points 2 hours ago

Not for everyone.

[–] wonderingwanderer@sopuli.xyz 9 points 3 hours ago

Which the US pays for...

[–] mrdown@lemmy.world 6 points 3 hours ago

Stuck in Gaza or the west bank

[–] givesomefucks@lemmy.world 9 points 4 hours ago

A cynic would say they're hoping for American deaths in Israel to use as further justification for war...

But it's gonna ring pretty hollow after how many Americans Israel has killed.
