@ColinDMello Ah I got it.
He's saying Wab is superior to him. By not deigning the use of the NDP name, he considers NDP "inferior", but says Wab talks like a conservative.
Therefore, he thinks Wab is superior to him.
@Birdman88064322@CedarAndHoney@MarkJCarney You don't honestly think that this wouldn't have happened without the Keystone pipeline, right?
That's always been the most plentiful oil reserve, and our oil is much more difficult to refine; that's why we sell it to them at such a loss. Keystone wouldn't have changed a thing.
@Badinal@CedarAndHoney@MarkJCarney Wow, Carlos Andrés Pérez was a Marxist dictator? I didn't know!

Oh wait, he wasn't. You're just an idiot.
Never mind that US companies were still allowed to operate up until last year, when Trump (yeah that guy) revoked a bunch of licenses.
@sezer_yyc@CedarAndHoney@MarkJCarney Peak Oil has long passed. The Trump Regime simply doesn't care and wants it anyway, because the United States has refused to diversify in any way in the last 70 years.
They quite literally need that oil to function their economy, as well as provide endless profit to capitalists.
@Justice4AIl@CedarAndHoney Trump even rugpulled her at the end; she's not getting installed as head of state.
Quite literally sold her country out for nothing. Shameful.
@tku55_@rep08191@NadeemRamAli@BNODesk Don't fall for the trap. The only reason US oil companies operating in Venezuela was "unlawful" in any way was because Trump revoked licensing to operate in Venezuela from companies like Chevron last year.
Clearly to foment unrest for this regime change.
@rep08191@tku55_@NadeemRamAli@BNODesk I'm sure the profits reaped for the prior *checks notes* 60 years sufficed, no?
Also, Perez nationalized the Oil reserves, not Chavez.
Also, up until last year Chevron was operating lawfully until Trump revoked their operating license.
@Stu6oh1@licensedtopil21@elrama_@MistahCreeps@BoringBiz_ You've never met a poor farmer because they aren't actually farmers, they're landlords.
The actual farmers (the ones doing the farming) simply rent the space to do the work.
@lordoftheTVG@LetoIIIAtreides@souljagoyteller It wasn't even just unwillingness by your description, they literally believed government intervention in the market was unethical and that a wagon supplier should just enter the market in the middle of a civil war on their own dime.
I guess libertarians cannot win wars.
@meadetcg @michaeljhout@esjesjesj@np_caswell88 Shhhhh you aren't supposed to give the game away! How are they supposed to make people fear the "left" if the "left" is actually just center at best?
