I hope they’re prank oil barrels. Also I hope that’s a thing.

The reason this stuff is important to understand, is so we can fight it effectively and prevent it from happening again:

Sociopathy is normal human variation…

It’s associated with criminals, because the earliest definitions required criminality, so the only population they’d check were violent criminals, which reinforced flawed beliefs that every sociopath was a violent criminal. Medical community is making progress, but it’ll likely take decades to shake that stigma so it can actually be studied properly.

Shit, a high enough IQ is almost guaranteed to come along with ASPD.

trump is way worse than just someone with ASPD, he’s most likely making a conscious effort not to care about others if it benefits himself, or even enjoys hurting others. Someone with actual ASPD doesn’t get joy from hurting people, they just don’t really care unless they’re putting a conscious effort into caring.

Which many do. But many people without ASPD want to cause pain, because they’re shitty people and fully understand what the people they’re hurting feel, if trump couldn’t feel the suffering of others in anyway, he wouldn’t go out of his way to hurt so many people.

Just to get me clear on something, did he ever day why US “owns” this oil? Like did he actually gove a reason or its a “IOU i made up”?

Chevron owns some oil production in Venezuela. Trump put sanctions on that in Feburary. If they restart that it would probably be around the 50million barrel mark this year and more in the coming years.

EDIT: If he is talking about that.

To paraphrase Omar from The Wire, “Oil ain’t got no owners, only vendors.”

We’re here to liberate you! JK we wanted to steal the oil. A story as old as time.

50 million is like 3 days worth of production in the US. This is like Dr Evil asking for one million dollars.

jordanlund@lemmy.world on 07 Jan 15:20 next collapse

US consumes 20 million a day, so… a weekends worth?

Oh, so the US is not getting a single drop then. Everything Trump says is a lie. Everything.
