You don't have jurisdiction over what another country does, Pedo. How are people not complaining more about what this rapist is doing here??? Attacking another country--- this is Russian shit. He thinks because his master can try to shit on its neighbors that he can too!

[–] comrade_twisty@feddit.org 135 points 1 day ago (3 children)

He‘s convinced he‘s the dictator of the world, isn‘t he?

[–] Wrufieotnak@feddit.org 107 points 1 day ago (1 children)

The world hasn't really shown him the opposite, sadly.

[–] nymnympseudonym@piefed.social 29 points 1 day ago (2 children)

One person at least put a bug in his ear

That poozer should have told him straight to his face

The US is the dictator of the world, and has been for some time.

[–] cymbal_king@lemmy.world 37 points 1 day ago

Nothing like a good ole fashion invasion of an oil producing country to lift holiday spirits /s

"You can't just say the airspace above Venezuela is closed"

"I didn't say it, I declared it"

[–] flandish@lemmy.world 57 points 1 day ago

they’re trying to build a prison

instead of a war on poverty

we've got a war on drugs

so the police can bother me

[–] phoenixz@lemmy.ca 21 points 1 day ago (3 children)

FOR YOU AND ME TO LIVE IN!

Fuuuuuuckkkk I miss SOAD, I miss those bands that really had a message back then, the songs that would rile you up, make you think, make you realize... RATM!

What would be a modern version of this?

[–] Witchfire@lemmy.world 18 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Protest music is still ongoing, if not stronger than ever. Hell, even Morello is politically active, look at his merch line

Grandson - Brainrot

Grandson - Self Immolation (honestly this whole album is bomb)

Green Day - F Off (2025)

Pussy Riot - Putin's Ashes (2023)

Garbage - No Horses (2017)

DJ Shadow + RTJ - Nobody Speak (2016) (bit older but just as relevant)

Pussy Riot - Make America Great Again (2016)

Art is and will forever be a form of protest

Man, if only the music itself could appeal to me. Their lyrics are ok.

[–] P00ptart@lemmy.world 3 points 16 hours ago

I get that. It's not on the same level as RATM, the lyrics hit, but it's more of just talking shit than a full message. RATM brought you into a world. RTJ just kinda takes pot shots. It simply doesn't have quite the impact.

Trump, in a Truth Social post said: “To all Airlines, Pilots, Drug Dealers, and Human Traffickers, please consider THE AIRSPACE ABOVE AND SURROUNDING VENEZUELA TO BE CLOSED IN ITS ENTIRETY.”

[–] SeeMarkFly@lemmy.ml 72 points 1 day ago (2 children)

He said "consider". How thoughtful of him to start a WAR on social media AND without congressional approval.

[–] Ghyste@sh.itjust.works 33 points 1 day ago (1 children)

That's exactly how you'd expect him to do so.

[–] SeeMarkFly@lemmy.ml 9 points 1 day ago (2 children)

It's getting hard to predict the stupidity lately.

[–] Ghyste@sh.itjust.works 10 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Always go low. No matter how bad it is, there is always stupider.

[–] SeeMarkFly@lemmy.ml 5 points 1 day ago

Yea, genius has a limit but stupidity is unlimited.

[–] P00ptart@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

We're leading a ground invasion of the north pole!

[–] SeeMarkFly@lemmy.ml 1 points 23 hours ago

I thought penguins were the problem. They're at the SOUTH pole.

[–] arrow74@lemmy.zip 11 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Unfortunately the US has allowed president's to effectively start wars since the 1973 War Powers Resolution Act. It allows any US president to engage in a conflict for up to 60 days without congressional approval.

60 days is a long fucking time, once the military is involved congress knows it can't just pull out of a country. So we always stay

[–] TheJesusaurus@sh.itjust.works 33 points 1 day ago (3 children)

Does he think that's up to him?

[–] snooggums@piefed.world 36 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Who is gonna stop him?

Congress and SCOTUS will pat his head and tell him he is a good boy.

No other country or combination of countries can stop the US military if it backs him. Honestly I don't see anything stopping him except the US military at this point and that would be extremely improbable.

[–] arrow74@lemmy.zip 4 points 1 day ago

We have time on our side. I fully expect him to die before the term is up to some health complication. He's rather old

[–] NutWrench@lemmy.ml 6 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Airlines should just ignore Trump. The only way he can enforce this is by shooting down civilian airliners.

[–] dustyData@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

The entire airspace in the Caribbean in front of and above Caracas has been saturated with ratio interference radiation for days now. The few planes still flying are having trouble with comms, GPS and radio referenced navigation. There are other ways to enforce this crap without shooting rockets. It's a shit show.

[–] TheJesusaurus@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Exactly. Even trump isn't stupid enough to start downing national carriers full of civilians

[–] skulblaka@sh.itjust.works 9 points 1 day ago

Narrator: He was.

[–] dustyData@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

Daddy vova did it.

[–] A_A@lemmy.world 7 points 1 day ago

The usual "Trump says" garbage.

[–] myfunnyaccountname@lemmy.zip 15 points 1 day ago

By surrounding, does he mean the entire planet?

[–] nuko147@lemmy.world 8 points 1 day ago

So that's why he pusses Ukraine to give up land..
