@Myles@poa.st @gav@cawfee.club @caekislove@caekis.love @admin@detroitriotcity.com Oil is under $100 a barrel because of the market manipulations, but you see the cost of diesel, gas, fertilizer etc going skyrocket, and it isn't coming down any time soon. Oil will continue to rise because there is no resolution in the near future. Their industry is not destroyed. Who told you that? Their accounts have been frozen for years and the strait will not open until those accounts are unfrozen. Their military is most certainly not "obliterated" and their proxies are currently attacking targets and clamping down on the Red Sea. No. The US is feeling the squeeze more than anyone else, and it's going to cause an epic midterm landslide for democrats because Trump is fucking this up so bad. No. No one was talking about Iran militarily defeating the US. Stop being stupid.

@FreeinTX@poa.st @gav@cawfee.club @caekislove@caekis.love @admin@detroitriotcity.com I get that you simp hardcore for goat fuckers and aren't paying close attention (let's be honest, you didn't know about the transit tracker site until you jumped into my mentions), but yes, plenty of people on fedi were insisting that Iran would defeat the US and it would be our Afghanistan moment, usually calling back to a wargame from the early 2000's showing a brutal US defeat. Wait, so if the price of oil can be kept low because of market manipulation, could there also be upward pressure because of manipulation? 🤔 So maybe, just maybe, Iran ISN'T the end-all-be-all decider of oil prices, giving them much less leverage than you think. You sound positively gleeful at the prospect of open borders Democrats gaining power.
