... because they violently overthrow any government that tries to dedollarize. This is the only reason US is still part of global economics.
Will there be an economic downturn? Sure, for a bit, while countries adjust. But there will also be much less war and genocide, which is worth it on its own, and by now the US doesn't have any real industrial sector apart from weapons manufacturing so supply chains won't be affected much (with very few exceptions, like airplanes).
Of course a revolution in the US would be better, but I don't see that happening for a while. TBH neither do I see america truly being destroyed by Trump, he seems to have something worse in mind as I've said.
Yes you're right, the huge amount of exports and technology from America is actually of no consequence. Why don't you figure out a way to nuke us personally. Goddamn I hate tankie bigots.
They sold all their nukes for vodka and now all they have to fight with is disinformation. It’s a shame they all exist on here. This app and these dialogues are non-consequential to anyone. I don’t know why they’re full of tanky propaganda. The far left and right just loves to hate monger. Everything has to be black and white or else. In group out group no nuance.
They're probably paid trolls. Russia did it with every other social media platform, so it would be naive to think they didn't do it here
I guess. I just don’t really see this application having the notoriety and user base worthy of devoting resources. But I haven’t kept up on the Russian troll armies out there. They’ve probably all turned to AI now.
