    Fusion is slowly becoming more promising. The oil mafia has been actively fighting the idea that their product would become irrelevant for half a century.

      Let’s be realistic, fusion is way down on the list of things that “big oil” is concerned about.

    However, neighbours told local reporters they heard gunfire before alerting authorities.

    What an actually completely ridiculous sentence, lol. You mean to tell me that they didn’t alert authorities just for the fun of it, and heard gunshots a few hours later?

      No. There’s another way to interpret this sentence to mean “they said they heard gunfire and then alerted the authorities”. The journalist just took like creative liberty. Chill a bit.

          XD

          They call themselves the socialist party, yes. But in practice they are a seen as center-left party and their implemented policies would be placed a lot of the times in the liberal spectrum (liberal as in economically liberal).

          They did re-nationalize an airline in the last decade, but they have also expanded public-private partnerships significantly.
