Giving out an ultimatum to blow up civilian infrastructure is a war crime right

      They’re not even beginning to understand. They still think we’re winning. :(

        Saw that diesel in my area hit $6.99 a gallon. Is this winning?

        I suppose it can feel that way if you’re an EV owner and don’t rely on Diesel (or dirtier versions of diesel) to heat your house.

        Of course, in my semi-rural area, a bunch of the MAGA voters drive huge, lifted diesel trucks that burn as inefficiently as possible (so that they can roll coal on Priuses and bikers) and also have 1950’s oil furnaces that basically burn dirty diesel. I wonder how long they’ll keep lying to themselves about winning.
