"I sleep" meme format, with top text "israel uses U.S. weapons to kill over 31k, wound 75k, and displace 1.9M" next to a picture of Shaquille O'Neal asleep with the caption "i sleep", and bottom text "ukraine uses U.S. weapons to strike russian energy infrastructure, raising oil prices" next to the same image of Shaq but now solarized and with glowing eyes and the caption "real shit".
Beneath the meme is a screenshot of the first two paragraphs of this reuters article, which are:
March 22 (Reuters) - The United States has urged Ukraine to halt strikes on Russian energy infrastructure, warning that drone strikes risk provoking retaliation and driving up global oil prices, the Financial Times reported on Friday, citing people familiar with the matter.
The attacks helped boost oil prices that have risen nearly 4% so far since March 12, when Ukraine first started targeting Russia's energy infrastructure. A further rally in gasoline prices in the United States would weaken President Joe Biden ratings and undermine his re-election chances.
the words "driving up global oil prices" are highlighted.
Don't need to be a Russian troll to see the hypocrisy. The powers at play don't give a fuck about people. Only the money. Dead people is just one of many costs of whatever is going on. Here we have a very clear demonstration that the US government will react much quicker to the gas price than the blood price. I don't expect better from any party currently involved.
