Once de-dollarization hits an inflection point there's a good chance that hyperinflation and chaos will follow. I hope we can somehow avoid that.

Well that’s when WW3 starts. The US will not allow that to happen without a fight.

That's when the aliens invade us. When we're at our weakest!

Not even the US Marines at their strongest could repel an alien invasion. If that was going to happen it would just happen regardless of our relative strength or weakness.

But but what if they die upon contact with water though?

Or small-batch amphetamines made by josh hartnett

Or their infrastructure is exceedingly vulnerable to computer viruses.

We seem to be doing our darndest in Ukraine to poke The Bear. Maybe we'll get both but I though "they" were going to wait until Trump was re-elected so they could pin the whole mess on him.

Whatever the Russian military is these days, it ain’t a bear anymore.

"The Russian Bear" is a term that's been in use for centuries to refer to Russia herself, not necessarily her military.

Callous isolationism and conspiracy theorizing in one post! What are the odds?

A real stunt, indeed!

But TBF, the odds are pretty good, as it is an art form refined by the Russians over centuries, and taught to MAGA movement that they funded in the US (via the NRA), and then made home-grown by the Q-anon movement... so, the odds are pretty good of seeing such stuff

You are indeed a cunning linguist!

I think they actually will tbh, I don't think the US has any fight left in it.
