This will become my no 1 tweet ever with millions of shadow banned views, few understand yet. In exactly 1 year from now, I will repost and comment "This aged well".
@robin_j_brooks When you were a little boy did you wake up one day and say, "One day I'm going to be a propaganda mouthpiece for the government"?
Or did they get to you some other way?
@WTAFRich It could also be an abstracted keyhole through which little, long-nosed perverts spy on other parasites while they're fucking and eating little chldreni.
@PlayaRiviera ¿Es una norma legal allí colocar servilletas, sal y pimienta en cada mesa, aunque haya por todas partes latas tóxicas de sulfuro de hidrógeno (H₂S) y nadie vaya a aparecer por allí en 100 años?
@Noticaribe El lenguaje corporal por sí solo muestra el entusiasmo ilimitado y grandioso con el que los marinos realizan su trabajo en la playa con orgullo y honor. ¡Fantástico!
The meeting that made the dollar the king of the world wasn't held in a government chamber.
It was sealed inside a luxury hotel in the mountains of New Hampshire while WWII was still raging.
In July 1944, delegates from 44 nations gathered at the Mount Washington Hotel in Bretton Woods. The world was on fire, but its financial future was being written in a secluded resort.
At the center stood two men: the legendary British economist John Maynard Keynes, and a mysterious U.S. Treasury official named Harry Dexter White.
Keynes arrived to save a financially exhausted Britain. He proposed a neutral global currency called the "Bancor" to level the playing field.
White had a different vision.
He didn't defeat Keynes through persuasion alone. He had something more powerful behind him: the economic weight of the United States, the world's largest gold reserves, the dominant industrial power, and Britain's near‑bankruptcy.
White's plan won. The Bretton Woods system made the dollar the primary reserve currency. Every other currency was pegged to the dollar, and the dollar was fixed to gold at $35 an ounce. International trade increasingly settled in dollars. It was the birth of American financial supremacy.
But the story doesn't end with a handshake at a hotel. It ends with a spy scandal.
Years later, evidence from the Venona decrypts and Soviet archives strongly suggested that Harry Dexter White, the primary architect of the post‑war financial order, had secretly provided information to Soviet intelligence. A man at the heart of American power, later linked to Soviet intelligence by declassified evidence.
The Bretton Woods system was terminated by President Nixon in 1971. But the architecture of U.S. financial dominance created in that hotel room, and by that deeply flawed man, remains the bedrock of our world.
And that leaves one of the strangest questions in financial history.
If Harry Dexter White really was feeding information to Soviet intelligence, why did he help build a system that became the foundation of American global dominance? Was he a Soviet asset who misjudged the future? Or was he an American strategist whose legacy became entangled in Cold War paranoia? Eighty years later, historians are still arguing over the answer.

@Kathleen_Tyson_@cbonneauimages@kenan101138 Nothing, because only low IQ normies would think Iran isn‘t part of this war against humanity. Most people fall for the masonic theatre of the pedovore class and think Iranians were the good guys. You really all didn‘t learn your lesson from the convid era, did you? 🤣🤣🤣
