I may use this ⏫op to start a bunch of threads

And using less energy/oil is very revolutionary
Indeed a praxis of constant reduction when where possible in however small way can pave the way to an #AHA!! Moment that CAN change the world
*Yes, it's a legalistic system modeled after the us Constitution and espcially in the mena they have all morphed into puppets, reliant on the bloated #pigEmpire ..the mena are all failed us states
