@poordart And the Ansarallah blockade for almost a month now has been memory-holed like the the idea of Riyadh is already dead and we priced that catastrophe in the global markets.
Clearly the investors are in la-la-land. There is just too much to lose by acknowledging reality.
@NajjiiMalik If the Americans are masters of something, its to keep the grift going until we suffer mass shortages and the real world grinds to a halt.
@NajjiiMalik I think Trump et al. will try to stablize economy as much as possible until midterm elections and then impose increasingly more authoritarian laws come 2027 peppered with some CIA falseflags and Israel will hound on Turkey to make the region even more turbulent.
@bonzerbarry Just create as much chaos and headache for the superiors who vent it all out on the greenhorns. We will speedrun to a new iteration of fragging.
@extra_beef_ There's a new narrative building around the US playing only economic warfare to put a stop to Iran's Hormuz strategy. I find it amusing that the situation-monitoring crowd, after seeing 6 months of this war, are arguing that this is the golden goose.
@bonzerbarry They (US) may find this deal more palatable, permitting the flow of some oil to keep running the clock and avoid a catastrophe. But they are certainly not geniuses with the half-baked short-term strategies. This too shall break, and YAF will be that decisive answer. ๐ฅ
@tleilax___ What does a protracted conflict for USA even looks like? They are really gonna be there for years? BOJ, Oil, AI markets getting super manipulated to their limits to avoid higher treasury yields...this will all break. Mad men ๐
