Indeed, fuel in Japan is higher than in Europe. In the USA, fuel should take a backseat and the cost of healthcare should be the main topic for change.
Good thing my quality of life went down to protect checks notes baby eating pedofiles? OK…
Actual weekly gas spending as a household budget item is probably higher in the US on average.
No idea about this. I drive a Honda Civic in the US, and hardly notice gas prices. I’m much more concerned about food prices, rent prices, and unemployment rate.
At least you have a car you can sleep in if rent gets too high. I hope its paid off.
Me with my tiny range electric car finally being smug about something.
Ill complain about whatever I want, fuck you
At least the Europeans have public transportation
This is about americain people. I don’t think this adress to us, french people.
It’s bad for us both and arguing about who has it worse is childish and stupid
And also it’s always the Europeans that have it worse.
But overall they have it better because their villages and towns were made for people and not cars.
Laughs in doesn’t even own a car
To paraphrase Bill Nye, eye protection on; if you raise the cost of fossil fuels, fewer people will use them; eye protection off.
Honestly when Americans chime in about anything going on in the world. When I hear an American complaining about another country or their actions, I just want Americans to sit down or go fix their own dumpster fire. I
Baby needs to be thrown out with the bathwater. It was a fun project, but at some point everyone needs to cut their losses, and accept that uncontrolled capitalism is not it.
So then get to it, throw out the bath water as it were and use that 2nd amendment, otherwise it’s all just talk and do nothing and let it go on
Sounds like you misunderstood the analogy, I don’t think the person you’re referring to has 2nd amendment rights.
I’m not american, but you’re right.
Too many people here still think the problem is just Trump. They might temporarily agree with you but I guarantee if we get some shill like Newsom as our president in 2029 most people will go back to sleep.
I’m afraid things will have to get much worse here for the average suburbanite before they realize the dumpster is even on fire.
I don’t see how you guys aren’t scrambling and begging for Newsom at this point. You think the rest of us around the world haven’t had to hold our nose and vote for a crappy politician to not let the fascists win? It sucks but it’s the only option you have. Staying home is actively helping the fascists. You guys ignored the issue for too long and frankly now it’s too late. There is no more time to pout and turn your nose up at the people opposing Trump
I never said I wouldn’t prefer him to Trump. My point is that America has been a proto-fascist imperialist wrecking ball for far longer than Trump has been around and that’s only possible because too many Americans are brainwashed and propagandized into an absolute stupor.
And as far as the rest of the world is concerned, the main difference between Trump and Newsom is decorum. Newsom would absolutely continue supporting genocide in Gaza, sanctions against Cuba, nuclear brinksmanship with N Korea, and reckless belligerence against China. Yes, he’d do it with more tact, but that’s not much comfort to the people being starved and bombed.
Californian here, Newsom is only mildly better than a fascist as is. Dude would’ve been a Republican back in the 70s but the Republicans as a brand are too toxic to gain and hold substantial influence in the state.
Just look at his stupid ass podcast and his interview with the ol bleedy neck, he is far too nice to him and all but grovels. It’s all rather pathetic, but regardless he would most likely be worse than Biden or even a milksop like Harris. Him getting the nomination would be four steps back, here’s hoping he catches a bad case of death before 2028 assuming the US even survives to that point.
I’m just happy I bought two electric cars to replace my old ones back in January. Now, for both cars combined, I spend a total £30 on ‘fuel/electric’ a month. Also electric cars are just a million times better in every respect.
My bike doesn’t take gas, and (for now) my bus pass costs the same as it did before my government’s latest bout of war crimes in Iran started.
your bike does take gas. has your grocery bill seemed to have gotten bigger?
Fair enough, but I have some bike fuel reserves under my epidermis that I was hoping to unload anyway.
In all seriousness, this is a bad situation for everyone. But I still consider myself lucky to have a car free life right now.
Spin it any way you want, stores are supplied by gas guzzlers
I want fossil fuels extinct, for the second time.
Which of the gases are European’s paying more than Americans? Is it Argon? Don’t they know it’s stored in the bulbs? It’s basically free.
i wanna punch him
