Transportation alone uses nearly 3 billion gallons of diesel annually. To suggest nobody cares about how the majority of goods and food products in America make it to our homes is peak Lemmy.
The military uses more diesel than anyone else. Sure half of the carriers and all the subs are nuclear, but none of our plethora of frigates and corvettes and cruisers are, not to mention the tanks, jeeps, and trucks.
‘more important’ to who? it’s very important to dipshit and his party guests… and they surely don’t gaf about truckers or farmers. they’re in it for the stock plays–maybe a little embezzlement and fraud on the side, military can always use it, the data centers might use some but iirc they’re more into natural gas, and using this measly piddly little amount (less than a day’s worth for the entire nation. not enough to have any measurable impact on pump prices) to trick magats and others into thinking they’re actually doing something to ‘help’ them. i doubt any of this russian fuel even makes it stateside.
Trucking and farming are far larger, and more important uses of diesel in the US
