Political Discussions for "Adults"

Most head scratching thing I saw from politicians and people who are into politics...
People saying they care about Climate Change yet at the same time, wanting cheaper oil and even suddenly get concerned about rising oil prices when the oil prices gets high.

Oil is a type of fossil fuel for those who are wondering, burning fossil fuels causes climate change which is why getting so concerned about rising oil prices while caring about climate change at the same time is soo confusing.

Bro you live in Arizona. If people got priced out of being able to afford using their cars in such a car-centred infrastructure, a good 90% of y'all would be dead af. That applies to most of america.

Of course, many would probably prioritize gas over food and shelter since they're often required to use gas to get to work since that's how they get their food. Even outside all of that, gas price inflation is so largely an artificially introduced part of our lives that it ends up superseding the desire to take longterm measures to resolve climate change in favour of taking shortterm measures to fix hunger pangs. There are obviously bigger approaches that would actually solve the issues at hand, but it's not that confusing really.

But ja, what a buncha dumb hypocrites lul
