[–] 38 points 2 years ago* (15 children)

I feel like many people are secretly hoping for a refresher. Nobody just wants to say it out loud.

    Ayup, just couldn't think of a witty caption so I invoked the Spirit of the Meme.

    It’s interesting how memes took on different meanings depending on the community you were in when you initially saw it. Some of them are pretty globally recognized, and others are more vague.

    I wonder how older ones will transform in a decade or so.

    Someone should do a second CEO assassination but this time maybe the oil industry so they know that no CEO is safe.

    I hate to say it, but I do need oil. Nobody should need USA-style health "insurance".

    Up-voted, but we only need oil at the moment because the oil industry keeps strangling baby competitors. A quick, non-sourced search shows that Oil got 90-ish Billion (1) in government subsidies in 2020, while Solar got 7. Even if the numbers are 50% of actual, Renewables are not getting the help they need to become/stay viable.

    (1): And that might be a waaaaay low-ball estimate: Yale said they got Trillions. Though that may be over several years.

    Perhaps lobbyists could be the next class identified as extraneous.
