Naw bro, you think I'm joking but that's because none of you know "Very Serious LiberalsTM" - to this day they will tell you that it is "reductive" to say the Iraq War was about oil.
Why? Because we ARE THE FUCKING EMPIRE and the WORLD WOULD BE BETTER WITHOUT US.

Like, this is the standard, ACCEPTABLE academic position in our society - that Iraq was not about oil. I shit you not. You go give a lecture about the Iraq war to bougie libs and university minions and you are SUPPOSED TO SAY the war wasn't about oil. To this day. In 2025.
And yet? EVERY FUCKING MORON IN THIS COUNTRY WITHOUT A DEGREE FROM YALE SAYS IT WAS ABOUT OIL BECAUSE IT WAS.
We are the WORST fucking people. Worse than Russia, worse than every single one of our "enemies."
