Interesting graphs to put it into perspective internationally

Unfortunately we proved just before the midterms that there’s a very linear inverse correlation between gas prices and perceived job performance. Refilling the strategic petroleum reserve is electorally smart. Until activists can detach these electoral relaities nothing will change for anyone.
That’s still a bad reason to increase the speed at which we’re killing ourselves.
It’s a great reason until there’s an alternative. As long as voters look to gas prices for their votes, taking action that raises them is politically toxic.
Meanwhile leftists are literally criticizing the Biden administration for high gas prices’ impact on the working class.
You want to change it? Let’s change it. Starting with activists.
We are out of time.
that’s not an answer. sure go ahead and kill oil production, make gas prices high and give trump the presidency again. see how that works out for the environment.
I mean. It’s the only answer. You cant see the dominos start to fall like they have this year and decide “let’s pump more oil and maybe some Conservatives will vote for me over trump”. It’s too late and it was too late 10 years ago. This isn’t just a US problem. This is global societal breakdown in the next 10 - 20 years.

Between his border policy, his climate policy, and his foreign policy he’s really fulfilling his campaign promise!

He is. But Trump and the other Republicans are fascists and even further right wing.
Biden committing genocide isn’t fascist for you?
Trump literally wants genocide.
Biden literally does genocide.
Really, he is personally wiping out a race of people? Not bad for a guy y’all claim is senile.
Listen, Biden sucks, but the alternative is SO MUCH worse.
Do you think Adolf Hitler personally gassed 6 million Jews? You do realize that committing genocide is about policy not killing everyone with your own hands right?
Biden calling himself a Zionist, providing israel with all the bombs to kill Palestinians with, cover them with three aircraft carriers against retaliation, intercepting missles towards israel and defending their ships against attacks in the Red Sea so they can continue their genocide means Genocide Joe is more responsible for enabling this genocide than even Netanyahu
Do you think Biden is ordering the killing of Palestinians the same as Hitler ordered the extermination of Jews? Ridiculous. You are a complete moron if you draw any remote equivalence to Hitler.
Biden has pushed to reduce civilian deaths and has forced Israel to address the humanitarian do a greater degree than they otherwise would.
Mark my words, Trump would be far, far worse for Gaza.
He might be right wing from a global perspective, but I’m still gonna vote for him instead of whoever has the R label. I wish we had cooler viable options, but “lesser of two evils” reigns supreme.
Stop supporting Capitalism.
The entire US political spectrum is right wing by international standards.
Whatever Biden is is better than dictator trump
