    Afaik Brasil and Argentina situations are unrelated to the oil prices, but their point remains valid for europe

      brasil makes a lot of their own fuel, so prices have not been climbing as much as in europe. brasil is protesting because the remnant of its democracy is about to end.

        Europe is sending a lot of money to Ukraine, and after Iran closef hormuz the price of oil started to rise. In order to keep the money flowing to kill kids in arab countries they need to cut costs at home. That makes life in europe worse and expensive, and this is how the crisis in iran is related to europe

          Italy had those problems since waayy before the ukraine and russia war, we just started to act recently due to seeing what other countries are doing (and also due to shit gettin gradually worse but that was just the last straw that broke the camel’s back)

          None of the protests is about oil prices. They all have root consoles long before. See my response to another comment.
