Awesome since were doing the inclusive thing. Here’s my complex take. Biden and Obama are morons for canceling Keystone XL, which would allow the US to fully end imports of Russian Oil which is about $500MM/day flowing to Russia aka Putin and his circle.

Oh and he’s a moron for not canceling those imports right now….but morso the modern pipeline blocking environmental ding bats that fuel his base are the real enablers here. He’s backed into a corner of gas shortages they helped cause and less oil makes everyone angry. The kicker is They’ve been told clearly by many that buying blood oil would cause strife. Now its more in your face than ever before.

Oh and the EU is the same. Their addiction to Russian energy caused this. They aren’t doing anything either.

So those are my complex feelings. The modern environmental movement has failed the world full stop. It succeeded in only one thing, getting people to buy Teslas and enabling exactly what you see now.
