The difference is China doesn’t give a fuck about its aging population. Once it gets it’s hands on Taiwan, the US isn’t the defacto world power any more.
Unless china can peacefully occupy Taiwan, that won’t be the result.
The result will be that TSMC et al will blow up the fabs. At which point basically the entire world is screwed and china is not any better off relative to where they started.
Reunification can only happen after China gains the ability to chose its own leaders. Otherwise the Chinese leaders can never be trusted. When the reunification happens, I think that Taipei should be the capital of China for the first 10 years or so since that is where the experience in democracy is located.
Your article is written by someone who has a vested interest in the price of silver. Your 20 “proofs” are a list of opinions from the author, often with one sentence being broken out into multiple “reasons” in order to make the list look even longer. I think I’ll pass on the idea of him being an impartial, reliable and/or accurate source of information, thank you.
Seriously,
Joe Biden still pounds the table “that the economy has never been stronger”
Indeed, there are decades when nothing happens and then hours when decades happen.
In this day and age, any posts not clearly labelled as sarcastic should not be treated as such. There are plenty of people out there who, as you said, would believe it without question and spread it like gospel. Unfortunately, there are enough of them where you can’t give them the benefit of the doubt any more. There absolutely are people who would read and disseminate it and turn it into the next big conspiracy theory that somehow Joe Biden would be held responsible for because of his relationship with Genghis Kahn. Or something.
No but it is the first step. If countries no longer have to purchase oil from OPEC in US dollars and they’re able to use their own local currency to purchase oil, that will be the end of the US dollar being the world’s reserve currency. The petrol dollar has had a stranglehold on other countries for decades because it required them to purchase oil that they needed in US Dollars.

Just like the Russian pipeline got blown up, those fab labs will be smouldering dust. https://youtu.be/OS4O8rGRLf8?t=91
Breaking news: Man with lifetime stutter, stutters.
And coming up at 11: Water is wet, criminal found guilty, baby cries.
No, the US is the defacto world power because the US Dollar is the default reserve currency.
Not after June 9
You mean the date that people on Twitter keep throwing around? I’ve yet to see a credible source back this claim up.
I’ve found this very credible source with 20 unrefutable proofs:

This seems to be the source the X post was based on.

Seriously,
These aren’t “proof” of anything.
I know. But I’m still not using the /s.
The italics were almost enough to show the sarcasm. A true believer would’ve used THIS TO SHOW THEIR EMPHASIS.
Yet there aren’t any sources backing whatever this “article” claims either.
Edit: The source’s source…
No, but it’s made its way to Reddit now, so it must be true.
I think this is a sarcastic post so I’m going to up vote it.
It does however seem like something a tankie would believe without questioning and then spread like gospel, so I’m conflicted.

I think the italics were pretty clear labeling
Saw on the other comment that this is because of the Saudi oil announcement? Is that right?
The 50 year agreement between the US and Saudi Arabia to only trade oil in USD is coming to an end. After June 9 SA can trade oil in any currency
And that marks the end of the USD as the world’s de facto reserve currency?
