JOHN CHUCKMAN COMMENT: AMERICA COMES UP WITH THE NAME "FREEDOM GAS" FOR ITS LIQUEFIED NATURAL GAS EXPORTS - SHADES OF THE PAST'S "FREEDOM FRIES" AND "VICTORY CABBAGE"

John Chuckman

COMMENT POSTED TO AN ARTICLE IN THE INDEPENDENT



“Trump energy officials rebrand fossil fuels as ‘molecules of freedom’

“New terms, including ‘freedom gas’, have been the subject of widespread mockery”



This is the contemporary equivalent to the "Freedom Fries" replacing "French Fries" in American  restaurants around the time of the illegal Iraq invasion, something France opposed at the UN.

A lot of fine French wine was publicly dumped by "patriotic" restaurants then too.

In WWI, sauerkraut disappeared from American menus to be replaced by "Victory Cabbage,"

Americans are such a bunch of babies.

Truly, whiny babies.

And they’ve found their perfect president in Trump, a world-class whiny baby.
