I'm shocked that key personnel in an industry dependent on the destruction of the environment would be so immoral...

please pay as the fine a total of 0.01% of your income from this heist and then keep doing what you have been doing

When jail?

Because if we don't start seeing jail, nothing changes.

[-] FenrirIII@lemmy.world 17 points 6 hours ago

You can't start jailing rich people or the peasants will start to get ideas!

Lina Khan is quickly becoming my favorite cabinet member ever

[-] cybervseas@lemmy.world 24 points 12 hours ago

She's a great communicator and seems to be genuine in trying to help Americans.

To be pedantic, as Chair of the FTC, Ms. Khan isn't a cabinet member. The FTC is an independent agency, which exists outside of the executive branch's departments. The heads of the departments are cabinet members. Think: DOJ, DOD, State, Agriculture, Interior, Education, Energy, Treasury, etc.

Well then she's my favorite one of those and Stephen Chu remains unchallenged

"Hess, in statements included in the filing, has praised OPEC’s price-controlling pumping. He said in a 2021 Hess earnings call that the cartel’s leadership had done a “masterful job [in] giving the market what it needs, but not oversupplying it,” and that “OPEC, I think, has done a great job managing the oil market.”

Go fuck yourself.

"In a dissenting opinion from the agency’s Monday ruling, Melissa Holyoak, a commissioner at the FTC, argued that in both the Chevron-Hess and Exxon-Pioneer cases, there was “no reason to believe the law has been violated.”

Also, go fuck yourself. Why?

Gee go figure, Republican Melissa Holyoak

There are conspiracies after all, but they're just the usual 'capitalist assholes screw the rest of us over' kind rather than the 'three-assed aliens kidnapped me and forced me to watch naked while they fed pineapple on a pizza to my dog' kind.

Poor environmentalists don't know what to do about this news!

More expensive gas makes everything more expensive

Cheaper gas means people burn more of it which is bad for the environment

That's not humor. Try being funny.
