you had me at "it is incredibly lame to wish death and harm on others for the delight and applause of an echo chamber," but then you lost me at "because those others are actually ok fellas and it's our job to bridge the gap with people who protest in order to extend a pandemic"

The circular firing squad that is GiP is starting to look more like a bunch of crabs in a bucket. In a current event: Oil is in loving free fall mode. How long can Saudi Arabia and Russia sustain these low rear end prices? Nobody knows. West Texas Intermediate is at $15 a barrel for the first time since the loving 90’s. That’s insane before you even take inflation into account.

lol Laura Loomer is not only running for Congress in Florida but is actually out-raising her eight republican rivals by a ton https://www.foxnews.com/politics/republican-aoc-laura-loomer-gains-steam-in-florida-congressional-run The district is heavily blue, but it’s amazing that people have donated so much money to a person whose campaign platform is to get unbanned from Twitter

Every time I try to reach a hand out for Chichevache it tends to come back all covered in poo poo, but here goes. If these people think it is a good idea to be where they are, or for the country to open up fully-as-before immediately, then they are victims of a failed education system and a predatory media on overdrive both profiting on their miseducation and being intentionally influenced by other states and non-state actors for political gain both in the US and abroad. Protests lack nuance. They are blunt instruments to express a general and unfocused discontent. The demagogues were ready. People concerned with their economic future are afraid because there is a very real threat to their ability to meet needs. Yes, other people (maybe even you) have suffered those same fears or inability to meet basic needs, and it feels good to see the tables turn. But you too have benefited while others suffer; pointing fingers at those you may safely publicly despise doesn't wash your hands of it, as you use electricity to read this forum post on your computer or your cell phone which you paid for with a job that, I bet if I took a poll, most of you got to via car. You're still part of the economic system that keeps you from having to gather your own food. The shouting and vitriol are attempts to distract. Please stop this oneupsmanship of hate. Edit: removed quote because I wasn't responding to the quoted post.

McNally posted:how the gently caress is "these people wish to indefinitely prolong a pandemic that has, in seven weeks, killed more Americans than the Korean War did in 161 weeks" a political belief It's just more bad faith on Chiche. My post did not advocate anything serious nor was it suggestive of. On the same day he's "But who will think of the protestors!?!?"and reporting posts of people who show him disdain, he's asking about wanting to push the boundaries himself on making ironicdeath posts in another thread. Pretty gross to follow it up with "I just want to stop this rhetoric for my daughter's sake". Meanwhile, those protestors will actually get people killed, more likely than not healthcare workers trying to save them. e : if I was serious I would have said napalm.

Or how hosed they are if neither needs/needed the money. I know they intended to gently caress American oil producers, but they might've hosed them so hard they broke their dicks off in the oil wells.

I would like to inquire where I can get paid 89 cents a litre for gas instead of the other way around, thanks. (Last summer gas peaked here at $1.68/L. I haven't seen gas this cheap since before 9/11.)

That Works posted:It's just more bad faith on Chiche. This is really the problem I have with this whole thing. I realise that often online people say horrible, gross stuff and try to pass it off as ironic or whatever when it's not; and yea, that should totally be called out. But gently caress, in here we're basically all regulars and it's not that hard to tell when someone's being glib or just talking poo poo, it seems really disingenuous to get that handwringy about those posts.

I read it in the general case, but I think the points he was trying to refute operated under the assumption of the specific. This is a conversation that had taken place across several pages, so at different times different people were probably talking about different things. I agree that we can tell the difference, and that Chichevache often posts in bad faith, but also the people that read the boards and pay visits to Lowtax are probably not regulars (except for NSA Wizard). But even if Chichevache wasn't talking about the general discourse, the check on our language might be valuable just to slow our spiral ever darker. piL fucked around with this message at 15:00 on Apr 20, 2020 |

BIG HEADLINE posted:It takes like 4-6 weeks for those decisions to actually start affecting gas pricing. The problem is that demand is cratering by more than those cuts while storage is running out if capacity. COVID has made huge cuts in demand that will just prolong that 4-6 weeks. Meanwhile oil countries have to decide if they keep pumping since oil dollars provide a large portion of their authoritarian budget and legitimacy. Any cuts Saudi has made have traditionally allowed outside producers to increase their market share.

Seems like they're doing it for all countries affected by covid-19 and that it's run by some tourism organisation rather than the Swiss state. The US flag was projected yesterday for instance.

Western Canadian Select oil is trading for negative dollars. It now costs more to pump out of the earth than it's worth. I sincerely hope this is the death-knell for the oil sands forever. It's poo poo oil and nobody wants it.

maybe our resident bootlicker isn't defending their political beliefs, but in fact defending his political beliefsbird food bathtub posted:Thought OPEC and the rest agreed to cut production a week or two ago to put prices back up, did that not pan out? It won't help. Demand is destroyed. The cuts basically need to be doubled to bring supply back into line with demand. The Texas Railroad Commission(the God-Emperor oil and gas regulatory authority in Texas) held a public hearing last week on re-implementing prorationing for the first time since the 1970s. The industry may be many things, but it is generally not short-sighted and realizes that it drilled itself out of a job and doesn't entirely trust itself to not do it again.
