You're in the weeds, whether or not it's (((your))) intention. For everyone who isn't Iran, Israel or America in this conflict; and the contextual parties of other conflicts, it's not about Iran's nuclear capabilities or China's right to Tiawan, or Russia's right to the Ukraine; it's about G7 VS BRICS. We are in an era of scarcity for resources, again ignore material needs of tomorrow and look 3-5 years out, countries are deciding whether they want to work within the western sphere of influence or against it, all the time weighing which will have a better economic outcome and the least amount of riots. We're seeing practice of 5th generational warfare which by definition has purposefully obscured actions and intended effects to limit the ability to respond with traditional means or meaningful efficiency. Considering all of this, Turkey coming to bat for Iran makes little sense for those looking at historical and social patterns but looking at inflation, often attributed to the dollar, half a decade of riots and similar unrest, recent political upheaval; then tagging onto a war hoping for greater benefactors, a more stable currency and commodity market, political misgivings forgiven in a relative state of surplus; makes sense. This is not to say it's set in stone but consider the acts of any country not in 5 eyes or BRICS, have similar concerns. Loyalties are being broken in unheard of means going both ways, these countries are going to reevaluate alliances and many will seem peculiar when they make 180's. Neither confederation is rock solid, really everyone is on the ropes which is why I expect commodity rich third parties to be the focus of conflict as the superpowers try to catch their breath. Looking at America it's obvious we've lost the means to control the world with coercion and threats, having decayed to much and being overleveraged physically and fiscally. Naturally if their is breton woods 2.0 everyone that got fucked 80 years...

No and this election is one of many symptoms. People like Cramer, bankers that got off in 2008 instead of offed, these people caused the situation they are now in, being hated by the underclass. The divide is huge, I fear the poors will come for me in the end as I should finally make 6 figures this year but I still rent and drive a shitty car. Otherwise larp as a anti capitalist revolutionary because anyone with 2 brain cells can see which way we are headed. Many will balk at the supposed hollowing of America, end of unions and offshoring, they don't care that real wages relative to most meaningful goods continues to fall while median income crawls upwards. They want you to put money into 401ks and pay taxes so the lines go up and fuck you once you're no longer producing. Entitlement reform is coming, ending snap and ebt, raising SS age, lowering benefits, removing or limiting Medicaid and Medicare, eliminating section 8 or atleast making it job dependent. The flip side of this will be a war on the rich, first with legislation and taxes, too little and late, by wannabe Che Guevara politicians but the DHS will see that these soften the blow for the second wave that will look like blackhawk down but the delta force all have on top hats and monocles. There will be good money in private security and fortress style villa accommodations for rural and suburban areas. Imagine you lose your life savings for bank shares you can't sell, if you were someone that caused or shared a tax bracket with someone that signed off on bank bail ins you'd have to live behind walls too. UHC murder was a benchmark for everything I'm saying, the plebs realized how bad their getting fucked and the rich called them commies.

>No aircraft carriers

Burgers may be disgusting but prior to the fall and even now amongst extreme graft we were able to make incredible feats of murder engineering at the expense of our populace. Perhaps carriers are part of a bygone era but there is no other comparable means of force projection. They did the math, GDP of Europeans is per capita on par with the United States and thus it was decided that collectively you to can experience poor or no healthcare in order to bomb Russian hospitals. We we'll be busy bombing Chinese hospitals.

burgerlads?
