Not a fan of articles that don't link to the original article.

If China tries to do anything militaristically, it's definitely the wrong approach.

Special ops need to be creative to counter NATO ops. And to counter NATO ops, they need to understand events occurring on the ground level and how NATO operates. They can't just throw money at situations or try to shut down speech and expect the problems to solve itself.

Sorry America but you fucked up this time. The Nazis in Ukraine have lost, they are all going to be cleaned up.

Now you have Russia, China, India and Hungry all joining forces buying everything with Ruble.

The American dollar could quite literally crash.

We can hope. I think the plan DC has is to turn Ukraine into another Afghanistan-life quagmire for Russia. Every dollar the US spends shipping some cheap weapon to Ukraine will likely cost Russia $10, so even if Russia wins, it becomes a very expensive victory. I feel sorry for the Ukrainian civilians, who the US is sacrificing as pawns.

Long term, I agree, it looks like the petrodollar is finally collapsing as Russia, China and India switch away from it. Once that new system stabilizes, a host of other countries that the US has been shitting on for decades in Africa, the Middle East and South America, will also likely jump on board.
