Europe’s Brilliant Energy Strategy: Just Don’t Use It
It’s April 13, 2026, and the Strait of Hormuz is blockaded tighter than a vegan’s refrigerator. Oil tankers sit idle while global energy prices rocket into the stratosphere like a SpaceX launch gone wrong—except nobody’s cheering. Europe’s fearless leader, Ursula von der Leyen, steps up to the microphone with the wisdom of a thousand focus groups and declares: “The cheapest energy is the one you don’t use.”
Brilliant! Why didn’t we think of this sooner? Forget pipelines, nuclear plants, or drilling. Just... stop. Stay home. Don’t drive. Don’t turn on the lights. Embrace the dark ages, but make it fashion. Ursula’s master plan is basically telling 450 million Europeans to cosplay as medieval peasants while she jets around in her carbon-spewing motorcade. “Monitor the situation,” they say, as if the EU’s navy—wait, do they have one?—could do anything but file a strongly worded complaint.
The Strait of Hormuz handles about 20% of the world’s oil. Block it and watch Europe scramble like squirrels in a blackout. No Russian gas? No problem—until there isn’t any LNG either. Ursula’s solution? Conservation theater. Dim the lights, cancel Christmas markets, and bike to work in the snow. Meanwhile, China and India keep the factories humming because they didn’t bet their entire energy future on windmills and good intentions.
People like Ursula are a burden on humanity. It’s that simple. These unelected bureaucrats in Brussels have spent years dismantling reliable energy sources in the name of climate virtue, only to discover that physics doesn’t care about your hashtags. Germany’s Energiewende turned into Energiewende-not-so-good when the sun doesn’t shine and the wind doesn’t blow. Now, with Hormuz closed, factories grind to a halt, heating bills skyrocket, and the average citizen is told to “reduce demand” while elites lecture from heated offices.
The EU has no plan and no military to change anything. Their grand strategy is “monitoring”—which is diplomat-speak for “we’re helpless but we’ll tweet about it.” While the world adapts or negotiates, Europe virtue-signals its way into energy poverty. Ursula’s genius idea isn’t leadership; it’s surrender dressed as sustainability.
Humanity needs builders, not nannies scolding us to use less. Leaders who secure energy independence, not ones who pat themselves on the back for telling us to shiver in the dark. Ursula and her ilk aren’t saving the planet—they’re burdening it with incompetence. Maybe the cheapest burden is the one you don’t elect.
The European Union and the United Kingdom are governed by imbecilic Globalist Marxists/Leftists. Is there any other kind?
