@link2reality @phathead_oz @ryangrim @scotthortonshow Yeah I know the difference between crude oil futures and the current price per barrel

@lancew3190 @phathead_oz @ryangrim @scotthortonshow Do you know anything?🤣

Dubowitz seems hopeful the war will resume which is frankly insane as the U.S. and Israel will be in a worse position a month from now with the world rationing fuel. But ok, keep letting Mark set the policy and see how that ends.

@link2reality @phathead_oz @ryangrim @scotthortonshow Oil is not below 90 but that’s beside the point why are there so many countries in the midst of energy crises if they could simply buy from us

@lancew3190 @phathead_oz @ryangrim @scotthortonshow Guy oil is down under $90 I’m not concerned. Oil is a futures market. It’s all panic. We will be fine. If you were smart you could have made allot of money off the panic. But you insist on believing nonsense.

@link2reality @phathead_oz @ryangrim @scotthortonshow Yeah we’re about 12 cents below the peak in 2022 which lasted about a week. In terms of diesel prices that’s pretty negligible considering prices often fluctuate by more than 12 cents week to week

@lancew3190 @phathead_oz @ryangrim @scotthortonshow Because I can read a graph and they were higher in 2022

@link2reality @phathead_oz @ryangrim @scotthortonshow Seems like a cop out. I don’t think you really have an answer. You’re wrong about our refining and export capacity, diesel prices, etc It’s an extraordinarily dumb argument to make that the US economy won’t be negatively affected by the strait being blocked

@lancew3190 @phathead_oz @ryangrim @scotthortonshow No you’re wasting my time with dumb questions. I tolerated it for a while but I am now bored with it. Do your own research come back when you know things

@link2reality @phathead_oz @ryangrim @scotthortonshow Not sure I would say “prices are down”

@lancew3190 @phathead_oz @ryangrim @scotthortonshow That prices are down as compared to just a few years ago.

@link2reality @phathead_oz @ryangrim @scotthortonshow Ok and?

@lancew3190 @phathead_oz @ryangrim @scotthortonshow Still cheaper than Biden.

@link2reality @phathead_oz @ryangrim @scotthortonshow Tell me

@lancew3190 @phathead_oz @ryangrim @scotthortonshow You know you can look this stuff up right?

@BoDonnghaile @link2reality @phathead_oz @ryangrim @scotthortonshow My mistake

@lancew3190 @link2reality @phathead_oz @ryangrim @scotthortonshow It's an anti-government protest. They are taxing us to bankruptcy, both in the UK and Ireland.

@link2reality @phathead_oz @ryangrim @scotthortonshow Why are India, Thailand, Japan, Australia, and Ireland in the midst of a fuel crisis? Don’t they know they can just buy from us?

@link2reality @phathead_oz @ryangrim @scotthortonshow so we’d have to import enough oil from Canada and Mexico to refine (with capacity we don’t have” to then export it to our trading partners at a price they can afford. We don’t have that export capacity and our oil companies would have to voluntarily sell oil below global market

@link2reality @phathead_oz @ryangrim @scotthortonshow I’m stating an objective fact. It’s not an opinion or a plan. The strait was open. Now it’s closed and diesel is twice as expensive as it was sixty days ago

@lancew3190 @phathead_oz @ryangrim @scotthortonshow So your game plan was to go with ignoring the problem until they developed their military to the point where if they decided to shut down the strait no one could stop them. Got it. That was most definitely their intention. They are terrorists.

@link2reality @phathead_oz @ryangrim @scotthortonshow The answer is no obviously. And idk why you think that the global market can adjust change its entire importing refining and exporting supply systems quickly enough to avoid a global economic crisis

@link2reality @phathead_oz @ryangrim @scotthortonshow Sorry another type. I mean equally capable

@EliseStefanik @Columbia You aren’t hearing that at all. This book has been written 40 times by 40 different people with the exact same opinions as you. No one cared the first time they definitely won’t care the 41st

Wow - I am hearing the usual antisemites and failed leaders at @Columbia are already spiraling out of control in panic trying to de-legitimize my book Poisoned Ivies to try to cover up for their abject moral rot.

@link2reality @phathead_oz @ryangrim @scotthortonshow Right but we all agree it was open 60 days ago right

@phathead_oz @lancew3190 @ryangrim @scotthortonshow Sure it’s just not being used right now because a Shia terrorist cult is staking claim and only allowing Chinese boats through.

@chalavyishmael @nytimes @K_AminThaabet They should only publish the opinions of holocaust survivors that agree weigh you. Someone needs to look into whether or not this “publication” is irgc funded

Every time you think the NYT can’t sink any lower. I spent Passover with a 103-year-old Holocaust survivor. He was taken to Bergen-Belsen in 1944 and miraculously survived. Then he fought in Israel’s War of Independence in 1948. Every day, he talks about wanting to be back in Israel, his home. And then you see a cartoon like this. I don’t think people realize how disconnected this is from reality. The idea that this represents Holocaust survivors in any meaningful way is just not serious. Every survivor I’ve ever spoken to understands why Israel exists. They remember what propaganda looked like in the 1930s. They’re not confused about what they’re seeing now. And yet this is what the NYT chooses to platform. Truly despicable.

@NoahArbit No it isn’t

We don’t talk about any other country this way. No one identifies as anti-Iran, anti-North Korea. We oppose their rogue regimes, policies, governments. Calling yourself “anti-Israel,” is just dog whistling that it’s illegitimate for Jews to have a state.

@BlueBoxDave @robbysoave @ezraklein He caller the Hilltop Youth inbred which like … idk man balls and strikes

@robbysoave @ezraklein He called Jews “inbred.”

This is fine, and I agree that allegations of anti-Semitism are probably exaggerated in this case (and some others), but it's telling that @ezraklein doesn't engage at all with Hasan Piker fawning over Chinese authoritarianism.

@link2reality @phathead_oz @ryangrim @scotthortonshow Sorry I meant countries

@lancew3190 @phathead_oz @ryangrim @scotthortonshow Are you asking me if I think Nike can refine oil?

@link2reality @phathead_oz @ryangrim @scotthortonshow Do you think all companies are really capable of producing, refining, and exporting oil

@phathead_oz @lancew3190 @ryangrim @scotthortonshow How? I know you’re trying here but if we are providing the oil I exchanged for USDA and protecting the routes in which it is transported it seems like we are still keeping up with that deal,correct? Just the supply location has changed.
