WTF Antecedent

From a Citgo ad:

For generations we've been helping to fuel our way of life

I know what its supposed to say; 'we' is meant to refer to Citgo and 'our' to society. But it hurts my brain to get that reading. Instead I want them both to refer to Citgo.

You're leaving out the second part: "Now, we're fueling the socialist revolution in Latin America. You know that jeep Che rides in Motorcycle Diaries? That's us."
