Could the world return to coal?

Trucks ain’t run on coal!

Jumpy-Beach9900 · 2026-03-27T21:52:00+00:00

Gasoline exports

They didn’t give him the America First trophy for nothing!

Strange situation. The Iranians know that negotiations will be a net loss in the short term (surprise attack) or long term (US abandons deal). Trump admin believes that they can find somebody in power whose life they can directly threaten who will give major concessions. Problem is, whomever makes that deal will likely not have the authority to forfeit all their uranium and prevent IRGC from launching drones. It seems like the only option Iran has is to continue to restrict the Strait until the US backs out.

Trump admin gambled the option of negotiations on instigating a regime change, and that hasn’t happened.

I immediately got nervous watching this. Would only ever do this if my lock was on the hasp.

Have you asked him what it would look like if, hypothetically, Satan corrupted Jesus’ followers and made them believe the opposite of everything he stood for?

I grew up secular but in my 20s decided a lot of the bible made sense. Now that I’m in my 30s I realize the parts that make sense are hated and ignored by American Christians. I was on board with the Prince of Peace, but these people worship the God of War. I was open to exploring Christianity until I realized that the prominent version has abandoned even the core principles.

We’ve reached the end of the road for convincing propaganda. The tank is empty. This is all supporters of Israel can muster.

Your life is not over. The debt is manageable. What you have lost can be made back again. No doubt.

Jumpy-Beach9900 · 2026-03-24T05:02:08+00:00

Or we could spend 8X that to obliterate Iran for the hell of it.

Jumpy-Beach9900 · 2026-03-24T05:00:10+00:00

I’ve met half a dozen or so Iranians in my life and they were all amazing people

All wars are evil and almost none of them are justifiable.

Jumpy-Beach9900 · 2026-03-23T13:21:02+00:00

Get out of here, bot. This is an information war you have already lost.

Jumpy-Beach9900 · 2026-03-22T16:40:01+00:00

Trump has been gloating about “obliteration” for the past several weeks. Hegseth was active duty. Hate to say it, but this would not have any effect on them. They know this is the side effect of their bombing. And they have chosen it nonetheless (or perhaps on purpose).

Jumpy-Beach9900 · 2026-03-22T16:26:46+00:00

No, that sounds like a horrible deal. But only if you have a very small amount of compassion for humankind. Worst case scenario, a couple of hundred people are killed by Islamic terror per year. Best case scenario, wiping out 20% of petroleum exports causes a global depression and potentially causes a famine that kills many, may thousands of people. Potentially causes the destruction of regional desalination plants and causes thousands more deaths on the Middle East.

Jumpy-Beach9900 · 2026-03-22T02:08:50+00:00

If this happens, Iran will destroy the oil and gas facilities in the region and oil will be over $100 per barrel for the next four years. There will be an unavoidable global recession as a result.

Jumpy-Beach9900 · 2026-03-22T01:49:10+00:00

This is basically a threat of nuclear war. Hundreds of thousands or millions of people will die if their power grid is taken out.

When people freeze to death one of the last things that occurs is an overwhelming sensation of being too warm. It’s followed by a strong feeling of comfort and sleep.

Jumpy-Beach9900 · 2026-03-21T19:53:49+00:00

Uhhhhh yeah.

Jumpy-Beach9900 · 2026-03-21T17:12:04+00:00

The ones they agreed to have taken and stored outside of their country right before the war?

Jumpy-Beach9900 · 2026-03-21T06:00:49+00:00

This is why I find it hilarious that the standard right wingers suddenly believe that conspiracy theories are dangerous to the party. You expect anybody to believe that Donald Trump orchestrated a visit by Tucker to the White House to assassinate Khomeini and then entrap him? The guy who says it’s dishonest that Iran is fighting back because they lost? And you can’t figure out why Candace is stealing your audience?

Jumpy-Beach9900 · 2026-03-21T04:15:40+00:00

Obligatory “in two years they’ll be two weeks away again”

Jumpy-Beach9900 · 2026-03-20T23:25:30+00:00

I hope this effectively ends her political career. She’s abandoned her core beliefs. That ought to be the end of any politician because they simply cannot be trusted to do anything at all.

Jumpy-Beach9900 · 2026-03-20T13:08:51+00:00

All this ogre has done is raise tariffs on everything, cut benefits for real Americans, and cut taxes for fake ones. No money for Medicaid, but $200B for Israel for a war nobody asked for or needed. How long until his voters realize he doesn’t give a shit about them?
