After Freedom Fries comes Freedom Gas
https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-48454674US energy officials appeared to rebrand natural gas produced in the country as "freedom gas", in a statement announcing an increase in exports.
The US Department of Energy said the expansion of a Texas facility meant more "molecules of US freedom" could be produced and exported worldwide.

Re: After Freedom Fries comes Freedom Gas
The project that sparked this "Freedom Gas" hyperbole refers to gas from a newly expanded facility of mining giant Freeport.
See links below for examples of Freeport's history of exporting 'merican style "freedom".
Does "1984" (George Orwell) come to anyone else's mind, by this twisted use of the english language??

Re: After Freedom Fries comes Freedom Gas
So what about those rare earths that China exports to the US for EVs and defence industries. Would they now be called 'molecules of communism'?
