    Remember when oil prices went negative this year? That was fuckin weird. Also dumb that Canada and other petrostates are still subsidizing their oil production, like even within the capitalist mode of production where only profit matters there is still too much being produced for it to be profitable (another crisis of overproduction). This should be the great lib reformer moment where we could demand a cutting down of production of oil that would benefit 1) most producers 2) us so we don't boil to death in 20 to 30 years - but it just isn't going to happen because we don't have a rational economic system.
