Welcome to politcal memes!
These are our rules:
1) Be civil
Jokes are okay, but don’t intentionally harass or disturb any member of our community. Sexism, racism and bigotry are not allowed. Good faith argumentation only. No posts discouraging people to vote or shaming people for voting.
2) No misinformation
Don’t post any intentional misinformation. When asked by mods, provide sources for any claims you make.
3) Posts should be memes
Random pictures do not qualify as memes. Relevance to politics is required.
4) No bots, spam or self-promotion
Follow instance rules, ask for your bot to be allowed on this community.
5) No AI generated content.
Content posted must not be created by AI with the intent to mimic the style of existing images

This is dumb. Shell isn't just sitting on their stuff. They're selling it - selling it to people who buy and use it. This is like saying OJ wasn't responsible for what happened, it was the knife manufacturer (but not the distributor or the retailer the ad firm etc)
Okay, who set up modern society to require use of these products? Was it the average citizen? Or was it petrol manufacturers, car companies, corrupt governments?
The average citizen doesn't have much of a choice about how society is run, and their ability to change things for the better is next to nothing. In contrast, there are people with vested interest in building the world in their image. In no uncertain terms, this is their fault.
