Lot’s of people have said Russia is a gas station parading as a country.
Headline is wrong. It’s a single point not points, and it’s meaningless.
And the OPEC countries are a gas station that tries to buy off and bribe corrupt politicians in the United States to protect their gas station with American nukes.
America is the original gas station which still has the biggest and best pumps which it has shut down in favor of electric Teslas with no electric charging gas stations so the Tesla is stranded on the side of the road in the middle of the Mojave Desert at high noon in the middle of August with nothing but a couple of cans of diet Pepsi, a melting snickers bar and half an order petrified McDonald's french fries under the seat. On the dash is a brand new iPhone 14 Pro Max which is discharged because the upscale, woke hipster driver was using Apple car play to listen to the greatest hits of NPR, MSNBC, CNN and The View. Now there is no electricity to charge the IPhone back up to call for help so it's going to be a long hot day for the occupants. America is in the process of committing economic suicide
But the Russian gas station is parked right next to the country with the biggest need for gas and the stated goal of becoming the dominant power in the world.
As part of it's plan to become the dominant power, China is encouraging and assisting America in it's quest to commit national suicide.
The snarky McCain/Romney/ DeSantis analogy does not sound so cute and snarky when you are out of gas in the middle of the desert on a hot summer day and the thing you want and need in the worst possible way is a gas station to save your hot, sweating butt.
And the tow truck driver of the gas guzzling Chinese tow truck working for the Chinese gas station filled with the Russian gas and is pulling a tall cold one out of his ice chest and laughing his ass off at your stupidity while refusing to come out to tow you to safety.
The moral of the story - it's better to own a gas station than to be stuck in the middle of the desert on at hot summer day in a car that's out of gas.
