It looks like somebody accidentally scraped the last one off, so I replaced it as a courtesy.

It wasn't his corruption that sunk trump.

It wasn't the epstein files that explicitly states he raped children as young as 12.

It wasn't his bungling of ICE gestapo that got multiple Americans killed

It was gas and diesel prices. What a stupid fucking country.

[–] Tja@programming.dev 28 points 1 week ago (1 children)

"got Americans killed" sounds like they removed the airbags in their cars, or dared them to swim with gators.

It was murder.

Has it sunk him? He is still in the whitehouse rather than a cell.

[–] NikkiDimes@lemmy.world 8 points 1 week ago

It's literally always been this way in the US

[–] vaultdweller013@sh.itjust.works 5 points 1 week ago (3 children)

Saying it's just gas prices and diesel kinda undersells how bad this is in practice. All goods and produce are transported with diesel be it train, truck, or even canal boat it's probably diesel let alone the farming equipment that also uses it. This fuckwit basically caused the one thing that no empire wants to deal with, logistical failure.

It almost as if, we should of diversified with other sources of transportation perhaps other ways of producing energy 🤔 what if we had a car that ran on electricity, or maybe a more robust train transportation system.

These are all just pie in the sky ideas. No country has ever attempted this. /s

I bought those same stickers and have been putting them on pumps too. So petty and stupid but I love it

[–] stickyprimer@lemmy.world 11 points 1 week ago (1 children)

In most cases they are pretty dumb because White House policy is rarely what drives gas prices but in Trump’s case with the Iran misadventures it is an open and shut case.

[–] baggachipz@sh.itjust.works 5 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Right and during Biden’s presidency the maga chuds were putting the Biden ones all over the place. So this is a nice “right back atcha, assholes”.

"And again, remember, with the war, it's just artificial. It's a little bit high [but] it's a small price to pay" - latest Trump quote i saw on rising petrol costs

[–] ChicoSuave@lemmy.world 22 points 1 week ago (4 children)

"it's a little bit high but it's a small price to pay" is perfect for those Trump stuckers

[–] JoeBigelow@lemmy.ca 4 points 1 week ago

Drop a link and I'm buying

Here in Ohio cheap unleaded is around 3.70, but only because the red governor ~~purely out of the kindness of his heart and to ease the burden of the constituents he cares so much about~~ recognized it's 1 month til the midterm elections and suspended the gas tax for 90 days. Before that the cheapest gas I could find was 4.15.

[–] Feidry@sh.itjust.works 6 points 1 week ago

Central Illinois here. The average price finally got down to around 4.17/gallon. And this is a low price area. It's more expensive everywhere around us.

[–] felixwhynot@lemmy.world 28 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Look into “eggshell stickers” when you restock. They flake off and are hard to remove

My calculations may be wrong but here in northern Europe we pay double that

[–] bstix@feddit.dk 11 points 1 week ago (1 children)

It's no wonder everyone's getting new cars here.

Electricity is about a quarter of that for the same mileage.

Using the current prices and my own mileage, it would take 5 years to finance a new car only by the savings on fuel.

[–] Molvorin@feddit.dk 8 points 1 week ago

Same here

The money I would save on fuel would be the same that I'd have to pay to pay off a new small EV.

My only concern is that I'd have to buy a larger car than that, to be able to drive the distances that I some times do in my diesel car.

But I'm almost willing to have to charge more often, than spend money on a more expensive one

[–] Flower@sh.itjust.works 10 points 1 week ago (3 children)

2.39 €/liter here. 4.54 liters in a gallon. 1.12 $/€.

12.15 $/gallon. Yes, it's double..

[–] OriginalUsername7@lemmy.world 17 points 1 week ago

That’s an imperial gallon. US gallons are slightly smaller at 3.79 litres.

[–] thewebroach@lemmy.world 6 points 1 week ago (3 children)

I've always heard that vehicles in europe are designed for better fuel economy, something about how emissions laws are worded.

In America it is common for small vehicles to get 30 miles per gallon (unleaded) , about $4 to $5 a gallon right now in the states.

Larger vehicles that take unleaded, like SUVs, trucks, vans, get maybe 15 to 20 mpg.

Large trucks and semi-trucks might be 8 to 15 mpg of diesel.

With respect of conversions of dollars, miles, and gallons, can anyone in Europe compare?

[–] TRock@feddit.dk 4 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Dane here. My old small car (Aygo) ran about 55mpg and right now gas is about $10.5 pr. Gallon

You would be pretty much in the money.

Because the USA produces practically enough oil to be self reliant without oil coming through the straight, their prices havent actually increased as much as other countries who dont produce their own oil.
So not only did they drive up prices worldwide to fuck every other country over but americans have the gall to bitch about fuel prices which have increased a fraction of the impact its had on ours whilst being the sole reason for the fuckery.

[–] HerbGrower@slrpnk.net 3 points 1 week ago

Its cheaper now than ours was before all of this stuff. But I stopped directly using fossil fuels years ago so it hasn't effected me in any way.

Except for having to listen to other people moan about it, that has gone way up. Everyone I know with a car that complains about it could either cycle to work or get an EV, so I don't really care when they moan about fuel prices.

Diesel is over $8/gallon near me

[–] then_three_more@lemmy.world 10 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

You're getting on for European prices. UK here is about £2 per litre. After conversion from £ to USD and litres to US Gallon that's about $10 / us gallon

[–] CorrectAlias@piefed.blahaj.zone 8 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

European prices in one of the most spread out and car centric countries on earth will hurt for sure

[–] ByteJunk@lemmy.world 6 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Time for some math on those EVs

[–] Tja@programming.dev 8 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Those are for libtards and make you gay and woke.

[–] ContriteErudite@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago

It's all those chemtrails that Obama put into the frogs! Once those frogs turned gay it was a guaranteed slippery slope straight to home-charging and human rights. Alex Jones tried to warn us. It's shameful, really.

My FIL uses superglue when he puts up anti trump stickers.

[–] JoeBigelow@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 week ago

I like his style

[–] mhzawadi@lemmy.horwood.cloud 6 points 1 week ago

Here in the UK diesel is over £2 a litre, going to cost me well over £100.

[–] kestrel7_7@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago

You should look into eggshell stickers
