Oil going negative, painful memory.

This is a great example of how Fox manipulates it's viewers. Because they trust only Fox, the Fox audience is completely vulnerable to manipulation by Fox. How could they know that what they're seeing with their own eyes isn't real? They couldn't. They're seeing it happen, it's right there!

This is pretty fucked up

When you’re incapable of empathy.

The US is not considering releasing oil from its strategic petroleum reserve, suggesting Washington believes any surge in prices following its attack on Iran will be limited ft.trib.al/enUR0u8
Seems to be the pattern…

This is such great marketing for Anthropic.
".. Antagonizing friend and foe is not a great idea for a net debtor nation – especially one with high deficits that need to be funded with foreign capital. .. It’s not surprising that some countries are reducing dollar exposure.”
