Meanwhile, Iran is like “what talks?” and I believe them more than Trump.

They’re calling for what it is, market manipulation.

Where one person says “we agree” and the other says “no we don’t,” it isn’t a question of his word against theirs. They are objectively right, de facto, evidently, case closed

It sort of depends on how you define "talks" and "conversation". If you define them as a communication method of mumbling incoherently to yourself while lackies mop you off after another diaper failure, sure.

Negotiations were "We will bomb power infrastructure". Response: "Here is exact GCC infrastructure we will destroy in response."

marcos@lemmy.world · 13 pts · 154d (3 replies)

Iran has responded that through the press. People in both the US and Iran governments are all saying that no Iranian representative is answering any US call.

What makes "based on the tenor, and tone of those in depth, detailed, and constructive conversations" all the funnier. Also, who the fuck wrote that? It certainly wasn't Trump.

anomnom@sh.itjust.works · 7 pts · 154d (2 replies)

They probably writeslop-up all their press releases before anything has happened and Trump doesn’t know to wait.

idiomaddict@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 154d (1 reply)

Which in turn makes the typo even funnier. Did they train it on trump tweets and it learned to include spelling mistakes? Did they decide people wouldn’t believe it was him without errors and swap it in?

anomnom@sh.itjust.works · 3 pts · 154d

Train it!? These people probably don’t even pay for standard services.

You know there was a time in our country's history where something like that cost you the presidency altogether.

I reckon the vast majority of the voters base won't even notice.

Conversations that are so obviously very real and also everyone was clapping and cheering. Thank you, Mister President Trump - LIBERATION DAY 2.0 - I BELIEVE.

Makes me think of when I used to give my kids a countdown ultimatum. "You better do it in 3, 2.... 1 & 1/2.... 1 & 1/4..."

For those of you yet to have kids, the secret is to count up and every number escalates the penalty, that way they also don't know when you'll stop counting and takes away the boundary they're pushing. (This is not professional advice and i take no responsibility for your future childs trauma )

"Witch" kinda makes me think it isn't. But also, if the prompt instructed it to imitate the sunny-d orangutan's typing style, it would probably have to include a misspelling or two.

IndignantIguana@piefed.social · -5 pts · 154d (4 replies)

Really? Chickened out? Are you hoping for the collapse of the entire global economy? Food shortages? Is that what having conviction looks like? This is the first even slightly hopeful sign I've seen in this whole shit show. A better title would be 'Trump finally tries to pull back from armageddon'

DragonAce@lemmy.world · 19 pts · 154d (2 replies)

He chickened out because the whole post is a fucking lie. He never spoke to anyone, he just decided hes done with the war in Iran because the other countries were mean to him and refused to help. So hes doing is typical routine of throwing a temper tantrum and then taking his ball and going home.

IndignantIguana@piefed.social · 10 pts · 154d (1 reply)

Of course it's a lie. Everything he says is a lie. But this wasn't because he couldn't find help. This was because the credible Iranian threat of bombing every oil field in the middle east was enough to get someone (the US oligarchs?) to tell him to back off. They know that if the oil stops flowing everything will collapse and they will loose billions. It's always about money in the US. The reaction of the stock markets is what seems to matter most. And honestly I don't care why he's turning around. If he pulled out entirely and said it's because God told him to I'd be delighted. Just stop the madness, please.

Then again, it is also possible this is just the well-worn US/Israeli tactic of "can we have a cease fire to restock our weapon supplies?"

And to my original point, there are countless reasons he's unfit for the job, and a sickening waste of a human being, but any sign of backing away from this disaster is a good thing, not something to criticize.

EldritchFeminity@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 4 pts · 154d

I think people also don't believe at all that he's actually backing away from this in any way, shape, or form. He'll go ahead and say that he is, and then later this week he'll bomb an orphanage or something and claim that talks with Iran have fallen apart and how unreasonable they're being because he gave them such a great peace deal, blah blah blah, etc.

Just like how he could've ended the war in Ukraine in a week if they had just taken his generous peace deal of ceding a bunch of land to Russia.

selokichtli@lemmy.ml · 5 pts · 153d

I think we, here in Lemmy, are overwhelmingly pro-taco. Trump chickening out is a classic, and in this specific case I can confidently say it was a great thing. Now, I hope he does the consequent, due actions to back that message. He must start commanding American forces out of the Middle east, because otherwise nobody believes him. Certainly, the Iranians don't.
