I was promised an economic collapse. Where is it?
>>542106534what do you want to collapse ?
>>542106534Two weeks
>>542106534Two more weeks
>>542106534Two additional weeks
>>542106577The global economy. >>542106618>>542106671Yes, about that.
>>542106534You'll collapse first, migger boy.
>>542106698>The global economy.its impossible
China built up ridiculous oil reserves, the US has a new agency tasked with identifying just how large China's oil reserves are. Russia's been filling it up since 2022.There is no global economic meltdown (yet) because china is tapping into its ridiculous oil reserves and burning silly amounts of coal, reducing global demand for oil. China is saving the global economy, it can do that a few more months. China is doing this just to show they can
>>542106534Sometime early next year if nothing major happens to break the conflict. There's still reserve oil capacity for now but the people who envisioned this lifeline didn't design it with a retard for president in mind.
>>542106534>>542107102Please try to understand this, OP.I know it's difficult for your double digit IQ to process this information and your pride makes it even harder but your nation and the global economy is literally being saved by China, and they are only doing it to dab on you.They are gathering support and future allies by pointing the finger at America and proclaiming you dangerous and unreliable.
>>542107102The idea of China holding up the world should not be counted on. Unlike America, China actually sees their reserves as an emergency source and are not going to dump on the global market to pad everyone else's pricing. When prices spike when the US buffer runs out China will use what they've get left to shield themselves internally.
>>542107339>and they are only doing it to dab on youThey are doing it for many reasons. Dab on the US yes. But also to seize Taiwan. If they have oil reserves so vast it defies common sense and a direct line of supplies from Russia via land. A naval blockade would be ineffective, and that is the only way to prevent china taking taiwan. Chinks are winning. Pushing china and russia into eachothers arms by engaging in proxy wars and economic wars against both will prove the worst mistake anyone ever made.
>>542107799checkedThe West is checkmated and Pan-Eurasianism is inevitable.He who has the gold, oil, manpower, and will to fight makes the rules.
>>542107574Its not about money, chinas been buying millions of barrels of russian oil per day at a discount for years and storing it all. China simply wants to show they made themselves the worlds oil reserve, which is astonishing because they dont produce oil. They gain a lot by simply showing the world what they are capable of. Its leverage too. Because in any negotiations china will remind you they are currently keeping the world economy from total collapse. Trumps second term is such a disaster it will be the beginning of the end for the US as the worlds superpower. Everyone is doing deals with china. Canadians are there, europeans are there too. Its over for mutts. 40 trillion debt too. Oof
>>542106534>>542107808There is one, just not for the west.
>>542106534it is happening slowly and then faster
>>542108123>>542107920>>542107574>>542107339>>542108166> Two more weeks.
>>542107920Russia was a wounded former superpower, but in a world where either China or the US would rule, Russia is the kingmaker. We pushed china and russia into eachothers arms. Children will learn of how stupid this was centuries from now. China unlimited manpower, Russia unlimited resources, neighbours. And WE forced THEM into intense cooperation.
>>542108206You see the problem here is that this is a crisis that the government has been left in charge of. Which means they're going to focus on putting up smoke screens and calming measures while the situation continues to grow with no solutions. This is how you get these giant fuck ups happening every once in awhile, the problem is left to fester into some giant conundrum and then some point comes along where they say... "uh shits fucked up now sorry, your gas in now $10 a gallon and this is the new norm for the next few years, nothing we can do about it, blame Iran".
>>54210653480% of the traffic has already been rerouted through other means.the reason prices aren't going down is just because company's now have a convenient excuse for their price gouging, so why wouldn't they.iit's just profit maximization
>>542106534It did happen. 1 million news jobs and all for women while men lost jobs net quantity. (USA)There is the low iq bot thread explenation and there is the sober explenation.The sober answer is that the industry, production of actual goods, is dead. Since a lot of production fucked off from Estonia. When I go on russian sites and look for work I find hundreds in my exact fields. Hundreds in just saint petersburg and not a single one in Estonia. There you, some product, some prop up the economy with daycare jobs. Of course, and you have to create the daycare jobs because women are consumers, there's layers to it and if you don't do it you destroy your currency. There is no conflict in my reasoning. Estonia is microcosmum of the baltic powers (sweden, finland, germany, and poland) and the baltic is the microcosmum of USA.
>>542106534>A CIVILIZATION will DIE tonight>we've never won so hard>they're completely destroyed>we've fucking massacred themmeanwhile they're blowing up US tankers and bombing US bases freelythis isn't the same USA that dog walked Iraq. its pathetic to watch. the bluff is getting called in real time, USA is to niggerfied to manage another war of conquest.
>>542106534
>>542106534Here's a countdown:http://spr.doe.gov/dir/dir.html
>>542110068what good is a reserve if the tank collapses when you withdraw it
>>542110004>>542110068>>542110180>>542110480> two more weeks
>>542106534> "where is my economic collapse"?America is a big country - you can triage smaller airports to keep the major ones running for weeks.The collapse is here - it's just not 'michael bay' - but it's definitely toast.
>>542110679>responds to attack on military targets by sinking civilian vesselsso stunning and brave. they can do the same you know.
>>542106534Iran’s? Not possible. They consider their people worthless. They will drink blood and eat flesh and allah cope their way into it. Ours? Not possible either. We produce enough to keep ourselves going and have enough to go further. We use the rest of earth to buy cheaper luxury technology and to avoid cutting down our own trees, mining our own toxic metal, polluting our own lakes, using whites and jews for low tier labor, and generally, not being like china (aka the other america)>BUT THE LEDGERS! THE DEBT!Remember when germany was in debt? Jews know not to collect from their golem. It was hard enough collecting from a non-golem.
>>542106534>where2 moar weeksCOLLAPSE
>>542111179>1550 pagesSeems unnecessarily long
>>542111083You know they always struck civilian targets in the first place, right?You’re really stuck in this mindset where war is an honorable game between chess master philosopher kings whose first and highest value is logical and consistent ethics. This is false. That value itself is nonexistent. “You cant outlaw rape and murder if you eat meat, hypocrite! WHAT IF ALIENS DID THE SAME TO YOU?” levels of liberalist IDIOCY. Good and evil serve either material or magic. When knives are put to throats man pulls his head out of the clouds so in war all serves the material.
>>542111488Agreed. 1488 pages woud have sufficed
>>542106534they'll be holding it after the US midterms, a possibly tossing in a fresh scamdemic to keep us on our toes
>>542111488yes much material is repeated for you slow types kek
Despite much bragging on the interwebs, Iran (sadly) does not have the armament required to threaten an American aircraft carrier (Or doesn't dare use it). Progressively they have lost control if the Strait (America is just bombing the shore with drones 24/7). They can do some level of area denial by sending peasants in dinghies to launch rockets at oil tankers but the casualty rate must be over 30%. Not great for morale long term.Iran just doesn't have the capabilities to fight a force 100x more powerful than theirs. It's debatable whether they could defend their own territory if attacked. They either speedrun nukes or it is a matter of time before they lose control of the country. Israel is going all in and they will make the Iranian regime fall whether it takes a year or twenty. The only way the Iranian regime can survive is with nukes. Before the end of the year they will lose control of the Strait completely.
2 weeks
>>542113339I have never seen such level of cope in my life until this post
>>542114252But you are the one who's coping.
>>542106534You're in it right now, retard.
>>542106534The economy is more resilient that people think, it's a feature of capitalism. Also, the media overhype the oil crises. There are other sources of oil, routes that don't rely on some gay ass strait, they are simply more expensive but still within reach of most people.
>>542115075Shut up memefag from meme country. BulgARYA is real country thousands years old.Amrerica is 250 and already dying.
>>542106534Seriously, when the fighting started we were told oil would spike and we'd see prices for everything spike in a few months.That never came.We were supposed to run out of Strategic Reserves in June, then July, then August. Now it's September and no more claims out running out of oil, just low supply.AI is more likely to crash the economy than anything.
>>542106534>Two More Weeks
>>542106534Syria took ten years
>>542107102>experts and economists did not only this ONE SIMPLE TRICK
>>542106534right here [spoiler]*unzips dick*[/spoiler]
>>542106534This website is full of hopeful millenarian wingnuts. Every event here is a happening which indicates that it is over etc etc. /pol/ is a perfect embodiment of Ellul's contention that the purpose of news is to suppress thought by constantly leaping from one fantastical catastrophe to the next. The sad part is that here we do it to ourselves and each other. The internet made propaganda bureaus largely obsolete, for we are quite happy to help ourselves.
>>542113015GTA 6 will perhaps be enough soma for the masses.
>>542111708US started the conflict with a surprise attack on civilians
>>542116465>KNOW THISOH FOR FUCK SAKE AUTOCORRECT
>>542115617This. All of the experts were le wrong again.
>>542106802I hope Russia invades Poland and the USA doesn't help at all. I want Russians raping polish woman.
>>542116507Classic.
>>542106534There is no collapse bro. You just gotta stop buying those 30 dollar burritos.
It worked Iran has collapsed everyone is rich now
>>542106534You need 2 weeks.
>>542106534Turns out threatening your foes with cutting your own arteries isn't very smart, and also since it was your only card literally everybody already had prepared and they have now engaged and expanded those preparations.So yeah, now they are trying to hit ships with their latest wuderwaffe.Your bet whether they will succeed is as good as mine but it does mean that them having their own tankers sunj in retaliation apparantly hurts them a lot.
Iran is on the brink. It's currency is worthless, and it's relationship with China is severely strained. Trump should have imposed the sanctions before he went in with the bombs, though.
>>542117863Nah, he needed Iran to sell its own supplies to cushion the blow that was gonna cause.Letting your enemy unwittingly work towards your own ends tends to work better.
>>542117863>seriously bro i know we've been bombing the middle east for 40 years but for real bro we're almost there, just one more bombing campaign for real this will do it then we will finally secure our freedom and we can get rid of TSA
>>542118095They have very little revenue coming in. The US blockade is working. Counties like Saudi Arabia are finding ways to get their oil out bypassing Hormuz. Sanctions are beginning to bite hard. It won't be long until citizens are really struggling to buy basic food items. Let's see what happens then.
>>542118095>Pls bro they are all interchangeable bro pls believe Iran is like the decentral Taliban broIran is more similar to America than to the Taliban, alas not in any ways that are to its advantage when facing the real deal.
>>542106534They're diluting the living fuck out of our gasoline with far higher levels of ethanol (or whatever else) and not letting us know.
>>542118282my freemason in Baal.... they're the most heavily sanctioned nation to exist, they've been without money for 30+ years.and yet, they still have a military that can bloody the nose of the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. you're utterly deluded.
>>542118599>they've been without money for 30+ years.You mean with vast money from oil exports which they now don't have? Clearly you aren't paying attention to the events unfolding. They have nothing right now.
>>542118491>and not letting us know>claims to know
>>542118599Yeah because nobody bothered to enforce it until Trump.Sanctions alone are symbolic bullshit, just pretentious tariffs with an idiotic moralist sauce on top.That all changes when you institute a blockade to make the words mean something.
>>542106534this is gonna go on for years
>>542118932Nah, even the muslim-lovers here are betting it will be over soon, delaying gas purchases for now because they know it will be cheap and easy after Iran folds.
