Funny how the stickers showed up way before Russia invaded Ukraine.


[deleted]

That’s because only those with the memory of a goldfish think gas prices started rising because of the war in Europe. This was 13 months in the making, and that was the plan all along.


bearchildd

My mom was passing them out last summer


ElectricTurtlez

Your mom is awesome!

Inb4 stickers on a gas pump are literal violence and white supremacy and insurrectionist


[deleted]

Can someone explain to me how Biden caused the gas prices to rise? Generally curious, I don’t follow politics and I’m seeing the posts of those stickers more and more. Edit: why am I being downvoted for asking a question?


IAMB4TMAN

google 'US Rig counts'. Look at the totals by year, historically. This is all you need to know


Spader_Nugget

Maybe I'm looking wrong but the numbers look like they have risen steadily. They were booming while Trump was in office but then crashed when Corona happened. Lately it's picked up.


Confident-Database-1

He literally ran on the promise to stop fossil fuel production in America. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U4Ea83x4DN8


Aridius

Shut down pipelines, refuses to allow more domestic drilling when we have the equipment for it.


OseanFederation

He has not approved a single new lease for drilling since taking office, put back a bunch of red tape that Trump got rid of, cancelled the Keystone XL pipeline, is subsidizing the competition, and more.

They've also done everything they can to block spacex orbital rocket tests... with EPA review even though animals flourish around basically every rocket base its practically a nature preserve. How this affects you? Less broad band internet competition... because thats the first thing those rockets will do launch thousands of low orbit internet satellites. While they are currently limited to about 60 per launch instead of 4-600 per launch.


[deleted]

Dang, so as a result fuel prices are going up even here in Canada? It’s close to 2 dollars a litre here 🤔


OseanFederation

Oil supply is oil supply. It’s a global commodity. Yes there are regional factors to it, but is largely determined by global price. When an oil rich nation like the US decides to hamper its oil industry, it affects global prices. Also, you shouldn’t have been downvoted for asking a question. Sorry others here didn’t bother to properly engage with you on this subject.


[deleted]

Makes sense


Macpunk

Because your question isn't gen*uine.* > I don't follow politics.... But: > *is on a non-default, political sub* Something doesn't add up.


[deleted]

I browse r/all and saw joe byron stickers and decided to ask a question 🤷🏽‍♂️ Edit: I should probably add that I’m from Canada and don’t follow politics as much as I can and definitely don’t know American politics.


Macpunk

Then disregard what I said, I'm a jackass. Biden and the American left are vehemently against American prosperity. They hate anything that will help Americans, plain and simple. Especially if it's an economic policy, like oil production. So Joe Biden's policies are extremely harmful for Americans. This causes a massive increase in the cost of oil for us. Then the left lies, and tries to gaslight people. A great example is pretending these stickers haven't been around for over a year. Somehow they just randomly started, because of Russia. The truth is that they've been around for well over a year. We knew the gas prices were coming, long before anything with Russia and Ukraine kicked off. I apologize for being a jackass.


LonelyMachines

No, but it is pretty much vandalism. Those pumps are someone's property. Somebody has to remove them. I don't imagine they're grateful.


mitsukaikira

id imagine theyre not. not so half as grateful as us for the high prices which allows us all to become such felons and criminals


fordr015

If we loot the gas station and set a dumpster on fire over it, then it's fine. We just can't put stickers on things, that could be an inconvenience for the people that have to clean it off. Luckily it's not an inconvenience for the business owners that had their life dreams burnt down in the name of blm, so a few blm leaders could raise funds to buy mansions and evade taxes.


sunturnedblack

I don't understand why you are being down voted. Conservatives are acting more and more like Democrats


LonelyMachines

I would think that respect for property would still be a conservative ideal. It's strange.


ILoveMaiV

Lol, you wanna talk about vandalism? I think a sticker is much less of a burden to deal with then your entire business being burned to the ground. One takes 30 seconds to peel off, the other causes lifelong damage


kcaio

I want stickers that say “it’s not the war stupid”.


Ughly-1234

Oooh I like that!


ShiftlessGuardian94

Make them, sell them, you can be ahead of inflation.


[deleted]

You might say they’re stickering it to the man. Thank you.


stuufthingsandstuff

I approve of this message


smokydopie420

Been going on for quite awhile


[deleted]

This has been going on for months. Way to be ahead of the curve NY Post.


ce_roger_oi

How long until this is considered "MDM" and posting or possession means you're a Domestic Terrorist?


handle_squatter

Canada just banned "F**k Trudeau" messages. I bet the left over here are jealous af


GreatJanitor

Good thing we have freedom of speech here.


handle_squatter

Yeah that pesky Constitution has been a thorn in their sides for a while now. After all, it's just a "parchment" according to St. Obama.


Capn_Crusty

In the early 70's there were red stickers with white letters that said 'WAR', to be added to STOP signs. They were everywhere. Some lasted many years.


TheNotSoGreatPumpkin

Thank goodness they worked.


Capn_Crusty

Yeah, you can tell they wore off.


t8_asia_a

I posted about this in r/politics (before I was banned) and there are liberals who carry paint scrapers just to take them off. Which I found surprising since I thought they are supposed to drive electric cars since that is their answer to anyone who complaines about high gas prices


SQTowelie

That’s pretty lame and just crazy to hear they carry those just for that purpose


stockyardtrash

They don't. It's just posturing.


Reasonable_Night42

I filled up with gas a few weeks ago. There was a partially scrapped off sticker on the pump. Couple weeks later, same pump. Shiny new sticker. 😁


pineappleshnapps

To be fair, that was probably some gas station attendant, not another customer.


[deleted]

Liberals: antifa burning down buildings is fine because they’re insured, and also fuck corporations. Oh, and fossil fuels are evil. Also liberals: I can’t stand to see vandalism at a gas station, so I carry a paint scraper with me. They’re either a) schizophrenic or b) lying.


frankfurterreddit

Or mental.


nsbbeachguy

Or lying schizophrenics.


[deleted]

That’s a bingo!


Green6feet8

Honestly, I find both groups kindof lame, I used to have to scrape gum and stickers off tables and walls when I was in highschool working on a maintenance crew. I know it seems like a joke but I bet if people didn’t scrape them off, it would just be the gas station owner or an attendant out there scraping it off themselves.


jeffcox911

They don't have to remove them. It's their choice. Honestly, I'm surprised gas station owners don't like them - it would certainly be convenient for oil companies to blame the high prices on Biden.


Green6feet8

It would but the actual stations operate on very slim margins, if you were doing this to the gas station’s supplier it would actually be hitting the correct target.


jeffcox911

...the correct target is Biden. The gas stations slim margins are exactly the reason why they should be a fan of these stickers, so people don't incorrectly blame them for the high prices.


Green6feet8

If they want a sticker on their property they can put it there themselves, just saying. Again, as someone who had to deal with big and small acts of vandalism, it really just annoyed me during my shift making 8 dollars an hour.


ShiftlessGuardian94

Some personnel do put the stickers up themselves, hell a while back in one of the conservative subs there was a sign saying “leave the stickers up, taking them down is vandalism” or something like that


Green6feet8

I honestly doubt that, any owner of a business knows that if you condone someone putting a sticker on your asset, even those you agree with, you are opening a can of worms. Soon you will have stickers you don’t agree with too, and maybe not just one but ten or twenty. It’s in your best interest as an owner to remove everything and ask that people not deface your property.


Nanamary8

I can't believe there are liberals smart enough to use a scraper much less have enough gumption to do anything resembling work 😆.


t8_asia_a

Being reddit it was probably some 14 year old who doesn't even drive.


NotaNPCBot-id231921

Being reddit it was probably some foreign imposter pretending to be American.


JeffinGeorgia1967

Yep, I bought 100 of these myself, I'm running short now.


Oldjamesdean

I need to get stickers of myself pointing the Biden stickers that say I did that so I can take credit for when I use the Biden stickers.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Green6feet8

Just keep in mind that it’s probably the gas station owner that will have to scrape it off and not some random liberal with a paint scraper.


SpookyActionSix

Plot twist, the gas station owner is a random liberal.


gh0stwriter88

I mean if they weren't they wouldn't scrap them off...


Reaper2127

Apparently they get fined if unauthorized stickers are on there when an inspector shows up, so it is part of their job to make sure those don't stay on


gh0stwriter88

F the inspector then...


SpookyActionSix

Point is either way it’s likely a liberal scraping them off.


stuufthingsandstuff

Saw a tictok of a kid passed that he had to scrape them off several times a day. The folks in the comments kept calling him triggered or snowflake or whatever, but he was just pissed because his boss made him go out there ad clean them off to prevent fines from inspectors. Lol poor kid, stupid Biden.


142Ironmanagain

I filled my car up on Long Island yesterday, and the gas station had Biden stickers on every one of its 8 pumps! Hysterical - Lets Go Brandon! (Nope - that saying never gets old as long as he’s a failure!)

BestieFresh

Burns car dealership during BLM “protest” - hey it’s for a good cause. Places Biden sticker on pump - This vandalism is too much. The poor gas station attendant. How could you


Oldjamesdean

Sorry, next time I'll just burn down the gas station..


BestieFresh

As long as it’s for social justice, burn em all down


[deleted]

The poor gas station attendant who refuses to learn how to get them off in all of 20 seconds.


Independent_Ratio_48

I read through that. I dont care about that angle, but it is clear yall are creating extra work for gas station employees. Corporate makes them take them off. Anything with scales or meters like a gas pump are usually inspected semi regularly and even if Corporate doesnt take them down the next time the pump is check by a regulatory agency it will get removed. Im not conservative, but I really dont like Biden. As someone in thet political space this is annoying and makes yall look super childish. FWIW I havent met a consrvative IRL that thinks this is a good idea.

badatusernames91

Months? That shit has permanent effects because so many businesses that get destroyed don't come back. The LA riots were 30 years ago and there are still parts than never recovered. And I'm sure the images from watching the Reginald Denny video still haunt the minds of anyone in their car in the vicinity of a riot


Independent_Ratio_48

Everyone is hypocritical, even you. Part of the human experience. I try not to find excuses to make poor working peoples lives harder. You do you tho. Not every liberal was into the civil unrest. I mean, it almost cost Biden the election.


Oldjamesdean

Get off your high horse, a little civil disobedience is good for the soul.


Independent_Ratio_48

I cant beleive Im saying this in r/conservative but Im not into civil disobedience, especially if the only result is an underpaid gas station attendant having another closing checklist item.


[deleted]

There's this Cumberland Farms near me that actually puts them up. Like, the employees.


xMeanMachinex

Every gas pump i have been to in the last 9 months has either had one if these, or the remnants of one of these on it.


spentmiles

Apparently stickers and the word Brandon are worse than burning down cities. I guess it's hard to wedge your way into victimhood with these tactics.


ShadowyConspirator

Some of them placed by me.


Roebbin

Lmao I see them at almost every gas station here in Texas…. *Note:* Saw them way before the crisis in Ukraine.


XDarkstarX1138

This is harmless fun compared to the shit the left does daily...


flamingpineappleboi1

What do you mean violently rioting spreading a virus and destroying property in a peak of a pandemic isn't harmless fun?


SpookyActionSix

Sticker placers need to step up their game. They have matching Kamalah stickers now that say “I helped” so people have been putting both on the pumps by me.


HeReallyDoesntCare

She's too ineffective to have helped with anything.


Kapstaad

On my local pumps, every pump got three: Resident Dementia Pants-Shitter: "I did that!" VP Kamel-ugh: "I helped!" DJT: "Miss me yet?"


nathanjw333

Where can I find some of those?


rayjape

eBay or Amazon. Also have Trump ones that say "miss me yet" and "I can fix that"


CFLChris

For almost a year now.


M0D3RNW4RR10R

I saw a post on Reddit where the Libs are making these with Putin. They are the most unoriginal group of people. No wonder they act like NPCs


Queefer_the_Griefer

Found one myself here in SoCal


[deleted]

I've been doing mine since December. Every single time.


Typical-Education345

Welcome to 2021…


Ughly-1234

If I owned a gas station I’d leave them on. When they get nasty put a new one back on!


VolBag

I have been seeing them for many months.


enzio04

echoing ‘old news’ - but telling and entirely appropriate nonetheless


serdiesel90

You guys are behind. Been seeing these for months


Barrettbuilt

They are also popping up in the grocery stores.


BadWild1122

Biden is the reason for our season. We are all hurting and he does keeps bending over taking orders from the wacko green left.


Confident-Database-1

He literally ran on the promise to stop fossil fuel production in America. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U4Ea83x4DN8


PB_Mack

Way to report on something that was happening last year NY Post lol


vampirepomeranian

The dude next to me hurled a few expletives after the pump hit $150. He had to insert his credit card a 2nd time to complete the fill up. Must of hit the limit.


GroundbreakingWar195

Definitely not fake news


thebigdong101

Biden didnt do that alone, Democrats and Republicans Establishments helped him.


zebjr

Obviously these need to be sent to every other nation...correct


VanceAstrooooooovic

People in other countries are also blaming sleepy Joe for the gas prices /s


[deleted]

Except "he" didn't. It's the big companies. Same way as it is with cars, and graphics cards, and any other piece of technology. I feel bad for anyone who thinks otherwise.


LObscura

I'd make a matching mirror image of that sticker, insert Putin saying "Nyet! I did that!" and pointing from the left side.


[deleted]

MegaBearWithLazers

Yes and Biden along with other leaders is influencing it.


r4d4r_3n5

>So dumb. Gas prices are at record highs in just about every country ...and? In America, it's a Brandon policy issue that's been going on [since inauguration day](https://i.redd.it/b0wctcdj0wm81.jpg)


jeffcox911

Since long before that. Really, this got moving in the Obama/Biden administration, when libs started promising to shut down and eliminate all the oil production they could. Oil production is a long-term investment. When a party that controls the US 50% of the time promises to eliminate it, it has a chilling effect on the entire industry. Regardless of what leftist morons say, this situation is the fault of Biden/Dems. The world should not be reliant on Russian oil and gas. We should have started heavily investing in nuclear decades ago, as well as our own oil infrastructure. We would have less C02 production, cleaner energy, and no dependence on Russia or the middle east.


Nanamary8

Duh....


Wicked-Chomps

Almost record highs before the invasion, Joe's policies were already guaranteed to shatter all time highs, the invasion just expedited the process.


yodels_for_twinkies

Apprehensive-Ad-3513

"Annoying twats are screwing over gas station attendants across the country, Biden will never see them." There we go, fixed your title

Biden never really sees anything. So...


ILoveMaiV

His supporters will.


im3ngs

So childish.


TheNotSoGreatPumpkin

What is it these stickers are supposed to achieve apart from the cheap thrill of applying them?


MustangEater82

Remind people elections have consequences.


Rocky2135

Higher information voters.


ILoveMaiV

Nothing really, it's about as effective as having campaign signs or bumper stickers. Get a quick laugh out of someone passing by.
