It’s kind of funny, the US grid basically lacks capacity to do a large data center expansion. So, Americans figured what if we put them in the Gulf and then you don’t even need to ship oil out of the Gulf, just burn it there to power them. They invest all this money into them, and then go and attack Iran who are now bombing the shit out of these things.
You love to see it. These fucks are so used being world bully that they never bothered to consider that Iran would be able to meaningfully resist. I’m assuming that they started believing their own propaganda about the Middle East being “backwards” and other racist, orientalist drivel.
