    Is the problem of Europe decades of neoliberalism and austerity? No, it's a singular gas pipe that's the cause of everything.

      not what I am trying to say.

      the world's highest energy costs

      would you also like a bad faith reading of your comment as "the bombing had zero effect on energy prices"

          I guess I'm supposed to apologize for noticing that western media never mentions one of the US empires worst crimes when handwringing about Europe's loss of "cheap Russian gas". if the Russians really had bombed it you had better believe they'd mention it in every fucking article along with "full-scale invasion"

          I suppose you won't see this, but part of the reason I have trouble shutting up about it is because of the wall of silence in western media

      you are absolutely right that this dish has been cooking for decades, I'm just angry that they pretend like the bombing didn't happen. I suppose I should "get over it" but it's not working what can I say
