Drill, Baby, drill. Burn, Planet, burn. Die größten Anteilseigner von Exxon Mobil sind The Vanguard Group mit rund 9,5 % bis 10 % (Mitglied im Wirtschaftsrat der CDU) gefolgt von BlackRock mit ca. 5,3 % bis 6,9 % (Hallo Kanzler 👋) und State Street Corporation mit rund 4,8 % bis 5,4 % der Anteile.
ExxonMobil fährt Rekordgewinne ein: 14,7 Mrd. US-Dollar nahm der Konzern im 2. Quartal 2026 ein. Das sind rund 1.800 US Dollas pro Sekunde! Gleichzeitig eskaliert die Klimakrise: Verheerende Waldbrände in Südeuropa, ein völlig irres Klima im Alpenraum, der Rhein hat historisch niedrige Pegelstände.

If anyone is wondering, I don't use generative AI. It offers me nothing useful creatively and nothing trustworthy as research. The environmental impact is appalling and the companies who developed it stole copyright intellectual property knowing that is illegal. GenAI is dishonest at every level.
Von Union und Springer bis zur Eskalation aufgeputscht, haben die Bauern revolutionstrunken und galgenbewehrt gegen Physik, Grüne Ideen, Abschaffung der Agrardieselsubventionen und den Beitrag der Landwirtschaft zum Klimaschutz gekämpft. Also die Bauern, die gerade auf toten Äckern stehen. Chapeau.
WTF!!! A doctor who botched an operation so badly it was described as "not compatible with life" has been struck off the medical register. It meant the contents of the patient's bowel, leaving his stomach, were re-deposited back into his stomach through a circular "closed loop"
Oldham surgeon struck off after wrongly connecting patient's organs
An expert witness said the bowel procedure carried out by the surgeon was "not known to man".

Laws are meaningless now. Sweet old ladies arrested for holding up placards announcing they are against genocide. Trans people being forced into public toilets that put them in physical danger. Rapists and pedophiles running amok in the highest echelons of power. This is what collapse looks like
Here is a clear example of how corporate capitalist forces (and their media) try to undermine science & create their own counterfactuals (and enemies) - in this case using useful idiots. A clear example of false consciousness - where publics must be deceived to protect corporate capital accumulation
Australia has reached the “lets label anti fascist and anti genocide activism as terrorism” in case you are wondering how fucked we are.
