There are people who talk seriously about the US military backing the dollar, when they can’t even keep the Red Sea open against Houthis and their drones for the better part of a year now.

Literally half of their mandate is to keep global shipping lanes open, and they don’t know what to do about this. Sure, they could nuke half the world, but they can’t actually perform pinpoint military control at distance anymore.

Paper tiger.

Not only is their technology increasingly offsides from what exists out there, but morally they’ve lost the plot as well, and so nobody gives a shit at home either.

We find ourselves meming the situation in social media as they lack answers.

I never heard the story about the US Navy being responsible for policing shipping lanes for global trade until Ziehan started talking about it about a year ago. Maybe its common knowledge in some circles, but its certainly not taught in schools. It seems to me that it has been a thing until people learned it was a thing.
