    Gas prices went up two measly dollars compared to normal in 2022, and everyone flipped the fuck out.

    Yeah, sure. They flipped out because the love their cars so much and don’t want to change anything. Oh, wait. No, they flipped out because companies and corrupt politicians made them completely dependent on cars so they will starve without them and kept them so poor that even increasing the cost of using the cars they dependent on just a bit again ends with starving.

    And here you are babbling none-sense again about how it’s the stupid people buying products -as if they had a choice- and not the companies and politicians that are to blame.

      Not to mention that the gas companies were reporting record profits after increasing the price.
