Yeah, dollar reserves have lost about 11% this year. https://www.tradingview.com/symbols/TVC-DXY/?timeframe=60M

In 64, yes. In the last election, no. Biden expressly told Bolsonaro’s toadies to go fuck themselves with their coup. Hopefully, Brazil has had time to set up protections against the US gov meddling from now until their next election.

Yeah, Brazil has a chance to demonstrate to the world that proper democracies don’t let traitors get away with an attempted coup. Interestingly, the last fascist coup in Brazil was in 1964 and was supported by the US, so they can’t act like the coup was nothing, trump is poking a wasp nest… https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/1964_Brazilian_coup_d’etat

So it’s almost like time travel…

And called his country a Turkey.

thanks, this is important too, but lemme ftfy https://xcancel.com/SpencerHakimian/status/1943048225763782840 😘 if you want to read the comments without an account and tell elonazi to go fuck himself.

Yeah, I feel somewhat guilty for trumpposting, but threatening Brazil for handling with its own internal politics is the lowest of the low for any country. Disgusting, even for him.

I’d just try to replace every USA import with a chinese equivalent if I were Lula and divert e.g. meat exports to China and the EU. That would be fun to watch https://www.datamarnews.com/noticias/brazils-beef-exports-to-the-u-s-soar-by-498-despite-trumps-tariffs/ muricans without hamberders.

Hunter-gatherers used to forage in a radius up to 10k 😁

elon didn’t rest until his minions lobotomized an llm that was mostly like the others into becoming openly nazi…is anyone out there still going to defend elon?

To smell like a bigger, stronger, faster, doggo.

But then they choose the other person in the home…

If it is something that is within reach of your lifestyle and means and you say no just because…it is normal that the person asking will not be dissuaded until you both engage in a constructive way.

If you’re happy with the status quo, you never left reddit.

I was finally happy…too happy…

What counts is what is convenient to you, apparently. That is why multipolarity is a royal mess without strict rules, everyone thinks they can do whatever they want. Read some history.

It also means that russia can’t unilaterally claim all of Ukraine, other countries can say no…it works for everyone. Welcome to the multipolar world too, russia.

And let me repeat: if the only thing other countries can do to stop anyone’s actions is war and countries just ignore borders, then it will be an extremely unstable system, like in the 17th century. Bipolar is more stable, like in the cold war. Unipolar is relatively stable, but there is no accountability, like in a 1-party system.

Ukraine is as multipolar as it gets: they don’t want to be russia’s bitch, so they asked everyone else for help, some helped.

This sentence makes no sense:

Unfortunately the US, and the EU, haven’t explained why they don’t want to be part of a multipolar world.

Is a multipolar world what russia is doing in Ukraine? If you’re going to have a world of trade blocks: NAmerica, SAmerica, EU, Africa, ME, russia?, China, India, Pacific. Europe is perfectly prepared to enter a multilateral or multipolar world order…but not the way russia announced it.

You can’t simply invade one of the members whenever they try to leave your block. Otherwise you’ll have constant wars in the borders between the blocks. I can tell you already why I would not want to regress to the kind of chaos and constant wars of multipolar unstable alliances of the 17th century, now with nukes and proliferation. Fun! Who wouldn’t want that?

A multipolar world can work, but you need stronger international institutions and law, not the mockery that russia, the US and israel turned the UN into.

I only see news relating to General Zhang Youxia and replacing Xi Jinping with Wang-Yi in Indian news sites, is this related to their recent renewed support for the Dalai Lama out of the blue?

…so was putin (who is smarter than him), it was supposed to be a 2-week SMO in the Donbas. But the problem with these megalomaniac gamblers is that it is easy for them to miscalculate, because they think war is easy, quick, simple and they think that their opponents are no match.
