        Yep, sadly he torpedoed potential supply as well. Honda, Ford, and other car companies announced cancellations of EV projects.

      Honestly, I’d pay good money - all my money - if this ended capitalism (especially this late stage shit we’re in), killed off corporations, and ushered in an era of progressive steps towards communism…

          You had separated the two in your argument, so I focused on the fertilizer aspect which you had indicated as the most impactful. Regarding LNG, all of the countries combined that could be impacted by the strait’s closure would only just pass Iran itself to hit the #3 spot, and that’s mostly from Qatar and Saudi Arabia.

          All of them combined, including Iran, produce less than Russia alone, and nowhere close to the US. It’s not so much that there will be shortages due to lack of supply, there will be shortages because it will get so expensive that poorer countries won’t be able to afford it.

          Or they start trading with Russia, giving them more funds for their invasion of Ukraine.

    Remember those “I did that” Biden stickers that dumbasses put on all the gas pumps a few years back?

    I’ve been thinking about those a lot lately.

      Highest, you mean? Because it’s not stable at all.

      And also, it’s way down on the stack. The cartoon may apply better to oil than to OpenSSL.

      This is referring to the fact that when oil gets more expensive, everything else does because oil is used to make fuel for transport of most resources in the supply chain. Because of how important is to the global economy, the exact disastrous effects are still unpredictable.

    Lmao if that really happened, people better work really fucking fast on moving to electrical everything.

    We’re so good at working together at literally anything. Look how well the world handled covid! We all stayed home for just two weeks and didn’t totally have a global pandemic that’s lasted six years now.

    Let me reiterate that:

    We couldn’t be asked to stay home even for a measley two weeks to eradicate a

    We’ve spent nearly 100 years ignoring the problem and refusing to develop the alternative systems that would lower our reliance on oil. The modern society will never be able to move fully away from oil, there’s hardly a better solution for energy density.

    But we could have still built the public rail systems to move people, built housing that was very energy efficient, designed our communities to be walkable, put solar panels on every rooftop etc. knowing that oil pollutants were a problem for the environment and a massive crutch that once broken, would collapse modern life.
