alt text: A “xit” from user @ChrpngBrd in which he responds to another “xit” from @BlueBoxDave that says “If Israel falls then America falls. It’s that simple.” @ChrpngBrd’s response is a thumbs up emoji, and two stills from The Simpsons S02E19 “Lisa’s Substitute.” In which, the first image is Martin Prince putting up a poster saying “A vote for Bart is a vote for Anarchy!” and the second image is Bart Simpson putting up a poster that says “A vote for Bart is a vote for Anarchy!”

    With declining importance of oil, the US has less reason to give a shit about the Middle East. We’re a ways off from that point, but it’s coming.

    If you think the Middle East is fucked up now, just wait until there’s a power vacuum from nobody caring about oil anymore.
