That oil prices are up as a direct result of increasing shareholder profits and the Russian invasion of Ukraine.
“The seven supermajors — including BP, Shell, ExxonMobil and Chevron — are poised to return $38bn to shareholders through buyback programmes this year, according to data from Bernstein Research. Investment bank RBC Capital Markets put the total figure higher, at $41bn.
That would be almost double the $21bn in buybacks completed in 2014 — when oil last traded above $100 a barrel — and the biggest total since 2008…..
…. Banks including Goldman Sachs expect Brent crude to trade at more than $100 this year, with some predicting that if Russia invades Ukraine it will trigger a sharper spike in energy costs.”

These little tidbits from this story dispels the narrative:
However, gas prices were rising long before the Russian troop buildup around Ukraine became front-page news.
In mid-May 2020, gas prices sat at around $1.88 a gallon. By late January 2021, when President Donald Trump left office and Biden was sworn in, a gallon of gas had risen to about $2.39 a gallon, an increase of about 50 cents.
From Biden’s inauguration until early November, the price of gas continued to rise: It reached $3.39 in early November, or an increase of about another dollar.
I see you have forgotten about how the GOP let covid spread unchecked and tanked the economy. Don’t worry, President Biden cleaned up after Trumpy made a whoopsie of the economy.
We see you refuse to acknowledge Biden's actions that caused the increase in gas prices to begin with.
On his first day in office, the president canceled the Keystone XL pipeline and suspended new federal oil and gas leases. He followed those moves by hiking the drilling fees on federal land, mandating that all federal vehicles be zero emission and is considering shutting down a second pipeline from Canada, the L5.
None of this was a surprise. Biden bragged about his anti-energy campaign during the presidential campaign.
"No more drilling including offshore,” Biden said during a 2020 primary debate. “No ability for the oil industry to continue to drill, period. It ends."
Actions have consequences; high gas prices are the predictable result.
After banning Russian oil, Biden hasn’t quite figured out how to replace it. In a little over a year, America went from energy independence to buying about 10 percent of our fuel from Putin.

WTH?
Covid spread under Biden. Did you miss the last surge?
Fortunately, mostly Republican governors saw the folly in shutting everything down and opened up - leading to stronger economic growth.
Thank the Republicans.
Typical of the left is right and up is down GOP narrative.

I would like gas and energy to be very expensive so that more people are forced off the roads and airplanes. There are too many people competing for limited spaces now. I hope gas goes to $15 and I'm the only person on the road
