Now, let’s ask: why are the FR trolls so keen on Zelensky?
—————
The same reason everyone rushed into getting untested, dangerous vaxes ( now undeniable), ….MSM spin and this administration’s “ Russia Bad” agenda. They were tricked and deceived.
The same reason everyone will rush to the cashless digital currency the US is now promoting and developing. The next financial meltdown, everyone will rush to it believing this administration through a cashless system will leave their 401K’ and Pensions intact- it won’t.
Biden’s sanctions destroyed world trade, and shot us in the foot. In my industry, ALL the aircraft,engine manufacturers , and defense companies have stated Russia’s announcement of a titanium, nickel, and rare metals embargo to western companies has them in PANIC!
Using the SWIFT system as a weapon has guaranteed a huge drop in the demand for the USD.( financial greats estimate a 40-50 percent drop in demand for dollars). India announced they will join Russia and China in their CIPS ( alternate system) , that is more than half the population of the world discarding USD use.
I can go on with specific examples, but realize Senile Joe’s sanctions just started a WWIII in the world’s financial system. Wait till Russia ( and China) announces they will take only gold for their energy ( very strong rumor in the financial industry).
Wake up America, EVERYTHING Senile Joe does is designed to harm America.WW III has begun, it will be fought through sovereign wealth and private wealth destruction. NO ONE country will survive unharmed. The Great Reset is upon us.
I am compelled to also mention the food chain disruption, break down. There will be famine in some countries, huge food shortages in others.
Biden’s sanctions have been designed ( stupidity or ignorance) to create food as a weapon. Statistics show once food prices hit a 40-45 percent rise, riots and mayhem is unleashed.
The credit system has also been severely disrupted, the world operates on credit, start watching for banking closures, mergers, etc. , credit denials, ALL sectors of finance will be effected.
Stay tuned, and fasten your seat belts.
Oh, we are on the same page.
Family members who are finacially sophisticated, worked at major hedge firms, just go ballistic:
“That’s just your default.”
“Soros is a great guy.”
“You don’t know anything.”
“That (and this and that other thing) is not true.”
“_I_ know how things work.”
So, we are done. They are all max vaxxed, retired, living off stock market gains and pensions in either deep blue suburbs or what they thought was a deep blue, southern vacation destination suddenly full of newly-awakened Hispanics who will likely vote R for the 2nd time.
They are uniformly on a very short fuse, so they know more than they’ll publicly admit. They are angry, but somehow think it’s best to turn that anger on anyone who tries to tell them the truth
Are they prepped? Dunno. Been put down so often, I don’t care. Just lose my phone number and don’t come here. (Actually not a problem,as they cannot abide the quiet, the lack of nightime lights, coyotes howling and turkeys in the yard)
Happy with grandkids being groomed or drafted because we’re just paranoids who are illiterate? Never learned to do without? Still happily paying for glam fake nails and hair color? Can’t cook, let alone go more than 3 days without a pricey meal out or DoorDash? Property taxes and utilities going way up? Happy to do as they are told if it means they fit in? $5+ gas is ok? $4+ for a loaf of sliced bread? Shortages are the fault of truckers?(etc. et al and etc)
Fine.
Not my circus.
We are, of course, affected, too, despite preps, skills and location. We’re not immune. I won’t cry either way. It is what it is. We’ve had a good life and when it’s over, it’s over.
(BTW, DH had a line of titanium jewelry, once upon a time, and his leftover raw stock has appreciated mightily since the 1980s. Wish we had more niobium, tho)
