Your get what you voted! Enjoy your fucking war.

[–] chunes@lemmy.world 1 points 8 minutes ago

Flying is such a giant humiliation ritual, I have no idea why people even bother.

[–] Gammelfisch@lemmy.world 1 points 11 minutes ago

Hey MAGA, thanks for making London Heathrow a better airport.

[–] Randelung@lemmy.world 5 points 2 hours ago

Jesus Fucking Krist airport right now.

[–] thethunderwolf@lemmy.dbzer0.com 20 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

did you mean Trump JFK Airport?

[–] altphoto@lemmy.today 3 points 4 hours ago

I wish he got an airport award!

I just created the "Me, I think he deserves an airport award" award and I'm honored to...

Anyway, squirrel!

[–] xSikes@feddit.online 39 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

The sad thing about this is that most Trump supporters probably don’t fly because either they’re always in their own bubble and/or can’t afford to. So they can’t relate to this, so it’s a non-issue sadly.

[–] ivanafterall@lemmy.world 19 points 6 hours ago

So they get to punish others for doing the things they choose not to do.

Again.

I’ve only been to JFK once, but I get the sense that the lines there always look like this. Not saying all the other stuff isn’t an issue, but don’t give JFK any credit. Hands down the worst airport I’ve been to. Avoid at all cost.

[–] Ghost@sh.itjust.works 1 points 9 minutes ago* (last edited 8 minutes ago)

I flew out of JFK terminal 1 recently (not sure how much the terminals matter/differ as it was my first time flying from JFK) about 2 weeks ago and didn't spend more than maybe 20-30 minutes in the TSA line? It really wasn't long at all so hearing wait times of hours and such seems crazy to me.

[–] Skanky@lemmy.world 6 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

I can see you've never been to Newark

[–] moseschrute@lemmy.world 4 points 5 hours ago* (last edited 5 hours ago)

I mostly fly out of Newark. I’m not saying Newark is good, but nothing like what I saw at JFK. JFK was so bad, they had a staff member split the security line in half and escort us to another level of the airport. And the entire time at JFK people were trying to upsell us on CLEAR to skip the line.

I have never seen Newark move a security line, and I’ve never had someone try to sell me CLEAR WHILE IM ALREADY IN YHE SECURITY LINE. Never again JFK.

[–] mlg@lemmy.world 2 points 5 hours ago

All three NY area airports are notoriously bad in every aspect lol.

[–] thingAmaBob@lemmy.world 9 points 6 hours ago* (last edited 6 hours ago)

My coworker noped out of a trip across country because they’d have a grandchild with them, and didn’t want any issues with missing flights, long waits, or ICE shenanigans. If they didn’t have their grandchild, they probably would have taken the train instead.

Edit: more info

Is there any other country on earth that stops working altogether once a year?

[–] Rothe@piefed.social 20 points 8 hours ago

Only once a year? Are you talking about the US, because it seems to have stopped working quite some time ago.

[–] d00ery@lemmy.world 30 points 9 hours ago* (last edited 9 hours ago) (1 children)

Lol I was looking into this the other day. From what I understand it's to prevent too much power being with any one group in US govt ..

Short answer is no, most countries have rules that see public servants (govt. employees) paid even when a department's budget has not been agreed - for example Belgium https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2010%E2%80%932011_Belgian_government_formation

[–] tired_n_bored@lemmy.world 9 points 8 hours ago (2 children)

Thank you. To give another example, in Italy it is necessary to approve the budget by 31st of December. If this doesn't happen the budget is controlled by the government but with limitations and only one month at a time. I think it's a good compromise not to let the country collapse.

Why don't they just let people take their assault rifles onto the plane such that they can defend themselves? Are they stupid?

[–] Rhaedas@fedia.io 21 points 6 hours ago

It's an airplane, not a grade school classroom.

The American electorate, truly the greatest in the world

[–] Spezi@feddit.org 8 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

I’d much rather have Camacho as the president. At least he knew that he should trust people smarter than him.

[–] Lushed_Lungfish@lemmy.ca 9 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

Camacho was a great president. I submit the following:

  1. When faced with a problem he didn't know how to solve, he appointed the best person he could find and listened to their advice.

  2. Upon realizing that he made a mistake, he reversed course and corrected.

  3. I don't think he ever raped a minor.

[–] kunaltyagi@programming.dev 5 points 5 hours ago* (last edited 5 hours ago) (1 children)

Cudos for being a dumbass but not a pedo (to Camacho not to you 😅)

[–] Lushed_Lungfish@lemmy.ca 5 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

Oh I will be the first to admit I'm a dumbass but not a pedo!

Kudos to you as well friend!

[–] kunaltyagi@programming.dev 5 points 4 hours ago

Good to have no pedos around. Us dumbasses have to stick together

[–] fox2263@lemmy.world 28 points 9 hours ago (2 children)

I’d honestly just cancel my holiday instead going through that trauma.

Wow! When is this from? Thanksgiving 2017?

[–] mech@feddit.org 124 points 12 hours ago (3 children)

Boy am I glad they're making sure a terrorist with a bomb can't get onto a plane to kill a lot of people packed together in a crowded place.

[–] CompactFlax@discuss.tchncs.de 4 points 5 hours ago

Let’s concentrate all the people in one place so that they can’t bring weapons onto a plane. Nothing could go wrong…

Just a half dozen bags dropped off in the course of 10 minutes.

[–] Tar_alcaran@sh.itjust.works 61 points 12 hours ago (8 children)

Can't blow up a plane if nobody can get onto the plane!

Terror is so easy to accomplish via random crowds and isolated unprotected infrastructure that it makes one wonder if any of it was really terror.

[–] stumu415@lemmy.zip 70 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

Good thing the US has a high speed railway network like China, Japan, Europe or Morocco, so you don't need to get on a plane. Oh.. wait...

[–] Lucidlethargy@sh.itjust.works 3 points 2 hours ago

I hear Elon Musk is getting right on that. These conservatives are so efficient and successful! Good thing we keep finding new tax breaks for them.

[–] r00ty@kbin.life 24 points 9 hours ago

Yeah but.. Is America great again yet?

[–] baggachipz@sh.itjust.works 4 points 6 hours ago

Oh yeah baby America is so back

[–] slaacaa@lemmy.world 88 points 12 hours ago (3 children)

Tired of ~~waiting~~ winning yet?
