Mike Tyson made an appearance at press conference where Trump announced diesel from Russia. Good luck with that. I give up. Increased supply does not lower prices. I don't make the rules. The price is what it costs to produce, period. Jet fuel costs the most. Banning jet fuel would lower prices.

The way BBC newscasters say "crunch on the pump" with so much glee, makes me want to destroy BP or Shell first. USofPetro$ could easily do that, denting the keeling curve, while limiting all the forced adaptation to UK. It would serve them right. At any rate, opening Hormooz is a mistake.

According to AI, Waters on Fox News claimed, "He says, Abdul El-Sayed in 2021, he wants to disband Chevron, Exxon, and Saudi Aramco. They should no longer exist, okay? He wants to run on wind and solar and renewables." Accusing an opponent of it is the first step to making it true, my only hope.

Selectively enforcing laws that increase stress upon people without threatening business makes people less inclined to vote, let alone vote against business. ICE and Iran are part and parcel to Trump's drill baby drill ethos. They provide excuses for Trump's successor to build more refineries.

It's controversial because business does more harm than the devil, and it technically follows the law if not the spirit of the law. Whenever a case comes up to threaten business, the law chips away at our well being. The keeling curve is the measure of our poor being, and there is no law against it.

Nope. The text happened. Authority is poorly defined. Anthropomorphism is an unfortunate part of human nature. It allows business to pay CEOs big bucks as scapegoats. Until we blame the producers such as ExxonKnew, and not the consumers such as AI, the pollution will continue.

Economic upturn is an oxymoron in the USofPetro$. Get back to me when AI companies are not chomping at the bit to be regulated. Then maybe I’ll believe the government is independent.

Paul Coelho @individkid.bsky.social · 20h
DOGE was extrajudicial. There is no reason we can’t create DOER, a Department Of Economic Responsibility, to destroy oil companies. And once they cannot rely upon oil companies to always be there, judges would not be beholden to oil companies any more. And they would rule DOER constitutional.

Paul Coelho @individkid.bsky.social · 21h
AI is merely a symptom resulting from more fossil fuel than human consumers know what to do with. The law in the USofPetro$ is completely captured by business. There is no hope in the law. We need extrajudicial destruction of oil companies.

I expect EVs are like renewables, more affordable but less profitable. According to Jason Hickel, fossil fuel is much more profitable than renewables. According to me, producers decide what to produce without regard to consumers. They tend to choose profit for some inscrutable reason.

Yeah, i think the Fed doesn't know prices from inflation. It's probably the fascism itself that raised prices.

Has moderation contacted you? If not, I think they are remiss to ignore my request.

Paul Coelho @individkid.bsky.social · 07/10/2026
Exactly. That's why I propose something harmless and consequential that has never been done before. Destroy an oil major, and good luck powering data centers when natural gas is artificially scarce. Farmers could use long extension cords for their combines. Ration against flying, and price control.

Regulate AI is what Meta, Google, and Nvidia are getting Trump to do.

Paul Coelho @individkid.bsky.social · 07/10/2026
That it has never been done does not mean it is difficult. Before they invented the transistor, no one imagined electronics would consume such a high percentage of the fossil fuel brainlessly produced by big oil.

Paul Coelho @individkid.bsky.social · 07/10/2026
Iran is what Trump meant by "drill baby drill". Obviously, Trump can't get big oil to drill any more or less than it does. Big oil is completely oblivious to renewables, covid, and hormooz, as evidenced by the keeling curve. Only the existence of oil companies matters to oil companies. Destroy one.

Paul Coelho @individkid.bsky.social · 07/10/2026
Engineers in AI companies collectively understand it. But to get them to make it responsible, they'd have to fear for their jobs. Destroy one company as a threat to destroy others, and they'd make AI responsible to keep their company from being destroyed.

Paul Coelho @individkid.bsky.social · 07/10/2026
There are things more unpopular than Trump. They are fossil fuel companies, such as ExxonKnew and KochtapusIndustries. We could easily destroy one of those by popular demand. You can't regulate AI, because you understand it even less than the CEOs of AI companies understand it.

Paul Coelho @individkid.bsky.social · 07/10/2026
Yeah, that won't work. You have to put it to a vote, and destroy the most irresponsible company. Then workers in other companies will strive to be responsible. Might as well flatten the keeling curve while you are at it, and make it an oil company you destroy first. Empower the electorate.

got it. no mergers. That is the traditional response to price gouging. What I'm proposing is that to avoid getting charged for tokens, you will have to do something more draconian than prohibit mergers. It's conservative of you to rely upon competition. What is needed is destruction of an oil co.

You misunderstand. I'm not defending the theft. I'm criticizing your proposed solution. Don't feel bad. Most people are like you. You believe in traditional economics. You believe you have some control over producers as a consumer. I don't believe renewables decrease, or AI increases, fossil fuel.

Personally, I'm more anti-human than AI enthusiasts are. They have to humanly collaborate. I just work on my hobby program by myself. True, I can't do anything without foss from others, but once I get the foss, leave me alone. Maybe someday I'll publish, but my ethos is to not hurry and burn less.

AI is not as anti-human as the companies that feed it natural gas.

What difference does a name make? There are probably 5 different flavors even I cannot name, let alone politicians that think they can regulate something they don't understand. If you want responsible AI, you need responsible AI companies. Only fear of destruction can make them responsible.

The bombing was caused, not facilitated, by the military industrial complex. The school bombing and revenge porn were caused, not facilitated, by conservatism. The solution, not mitigation, of both is the destruction of an oil company by the electorate, to make corporations responsible.

Tech billionaires are no more powerful than hires from college are. They are all helpless in the economic hierarchy that only cares about preserving the existence of the companies that currently exist. It's to protect oil companies that investors drew attention away from oil companies to tech corps.

Paul Coelho @individkid.bsky.social · 07/10/2026
No, they don't. It was the production of the natural gas in the first place that contributed to climate change. If it wasn't used by AI, it would have been used by some other consumer, just to keep it from going to waste. Consumers are impetuous. Workers are habitual. Vote to destroy an oil major.
