Uncle Bosie eaten by cannibals? What do you know?

Michael Rockefeller was not Joe Biden's uncle.

I thought that the Cornpop story was a classic whopper that would never be topped. But now Biden has come out with a bizarre story about his uncle being eaten by cannibals. This is apparently a reworking of an old tale about Michael Rockefeller, heir to the Rockefeller fortune, who disappeared mysteriously in New Guinea in 1961. The Rockefeller story was the subject of a book that came out in 2014. Here is The Washington Times. PeterKa (talk) 23:25, April 19, 2024 (EDT)

Main page right, news story on US military aid to Ukraine: Mr. Simplicius, there was no Mike Johnson U-Turn. It was obvious early on that his RINOish would become putty in the hands in the establishment-military-industrial complex.

SITREP 4/19/24: A Small Gust for Ukraine's Sails?, Simplicius, 4-19-2024:

"Today we have some interesting thematic developments in the context of Ukraine’s future sustainment outlook.

The most talked about of course is the headway being made for the Ukrainian aid bill, which is set to be voted on in both the House and Senate this weekend and early next week, owing to Speaker Mike Johnson’s eye-opening U-turn. The U-turn was in fact so ‘sudden’ as to imply sinister developments behind the scenes—perhaps kompromat waving, threats, and the like. From an alleged CIA/NSA whistleblower".

Mr. Simplicius, there was no Mike Johnson U-Turn. It was obvious that he would become putty in the hands in the establishment-military-industrial complex. User: Conservative saw it in November 2023 as can be seen HERE.

Very early on, like in November 2023, I saw in Mike Johnson this type of amiable person: "Mike Johnson, the accidental Speaker of the House, has spent his seven months in power trying to be everything to everyone. Hard-right conservatives found him too squishy, like when he worked with Democrats to keep the government open, and establishment Republicans found him too conciliatory to the hard right for his attempts to appease MAGA diehards."[3]

Also, there are 4 buyer types as far as someone buying into an idea: "...the four main personality types of buyers – Assertive, Amiable, Expressive, and Analytic – and offers strategic advice on how to sell to each. Embracing these insights can elevate your sales approach, ensuring you meet the needs and expectations of diverse clients."[4]

Furthermore, of the 4 buyer types, it was clear to me that Mikes Johnson was of the amiable buyer type which is this type of buyer:

"Amiable Buyers
This group of buyers is motivated by stability and cooperation. Their aim is to make everyone else happy. They are constantly worried about how their choices will affect the people around them, and for this reason it’s often difficult for them to make big decisions.
How to sell to amiable buyers
Since their decision-making process is very slow, try to key into the social aspects that will make them feel most comfortable. These people hate change and chaos, so it’s important to highlight the ease of transition your service will provide.
"Be friendly and establish a rapport. Don’t throw in new information at the last minute, but present in a systematic style. Explain to them why your service will maintain the status quo."

Thus, I saw in the amiable Mike Johnson someone who would be putty in the hands of the establishment-military-industrial complex. He is definitely not assertive or analytic!

RobSmith, I suggest you review my international politics essays and spend less time reading Mr. Simplicius.

Simplicius was like a deer in the headlights when Mike Johnson said he was for military aid to Ukraine.

I am pushing back on bad political commenting by a news source. It's inaccurate. Mike Johnson was a pushover personality months ago and he is one now. Conservative (talk) 11:32, April 20, 2024 (EDT)
Steve Turley is a bad news source? (Is Speaker Johnson Being BLACKMAILED?). RobSThe Truth. Just Putin It Out There 11:39, April 20, 2024 (EDT)
Speaker Mike Johnson is only engaged in the same anti-Putin propaganda you have been spouting for two years now. RobSThe Truth. Just Putin It Out There 11:45, April 20, 2024 (EDT)
It's pretty obvious what happened here: The deep state took Speaker Johnson into a SCIF and showed him his text messages to his girlfriend or visits to porno sites the intel community obtained without a FISA warrant.

If Trump is elected, while he will likely try to negotiate with Russia concerning the war in Ukraine, since he was recently publicly on record saying that the "survival of Ukraine is important to the US", I wouldn't rule out a Trump Administration funding the war in Ukraine.

Your criticism of the military industrial complex is rather disingenuous after this and about 3 dozen other screeds along the same lines.

Where in that essay does it say that essay the USA should fund the war in Ukraine? I believe that this is yet another example of your wishful thinking and misrepresentations/gossip.
"Gabonk!"
I do know the essay states: "I do agree with Donald Trump that America should not get into "endless wars" that do not serve America's vital interests.[51] I also agree with Trump's policy of not using the American military to "solve ancient conflicts in faraway lands".[52]".[5] And I also say in that essay: "Pointless and costly wars such as the Iraq War and War in Afghanistan are very expensive. The renowned military strategist and general Sun Tzu wrote: "There is no instance of a country having benefited from prolonged warfare." Among the USA public, a less interventionalist and more isolationist sentiment is growing - particularly among young people (See: Isolationalism is growing in the United States. Is this a good thing?). Of course, anything taken to an extreme can be a bad thing. The United States should stay engaged in the world - especially when it comes to the use of skillful diplomacy. At the same time, sometimes wars are unavoidable, but when a nation engages in a war, it should be a just war (See: Just War Theory). Also, as the USA does more and more onshoring of its companies, there will be less and less of an incentive to be the world's policeman on the high seas (See: Deglobalization: The US Navy's Withdrawl as Global Protector)."[6] Conservative (talk) 12:50, April 20, 2024 (EDT)

It's funny that you should mention that Russia is hunkered down for three years. What will the Russian economy be like in three years? Have you heard about Putin's trilemma which involves juggling the three balls of: funding the war in Ukraine, maintaining his populace’s living standards, and safeguarding macroeconomic stability? Does Alexandra Prokopenko, a former advisor to Russia's central bank, believe that Putin can juggle all three balls for 3 years without dropping one? And what does Prokopenko say about how Russia's current labor shortages affects labor productivity in Russia? Conservative (talk) 13:23, April 20, 2024 (EDT)

Redundancy and trolling

Because of your constant trolling, User:Conservative, I've had to sacrifice precious space on MPR and become redundant. For example, this was posted days ago:

  • BBC via Yahoo Finance: IMF says Russia to grow faster than all advanced economies. [80]

But because of your persistence in posting globalist and neocon Essays, I've had to repost the same information, which cites the same IMF as its source days later, from a bona fide conservative publisher.

  • OAN: Russia beating US economic growth despite sanctions. [1]

This is not cooperative editing on your part, and we waste readers precious time with redundant information. RobSThe Truth. Just Putin It Out There 01:02, April 23, 2024 (EDT)

The redundancy you've forced on MPR to refute your neocon screeds daily is basically dumbing down the conservative movement. RobSThe Truth. Just Putin It Out There 01:19, April 23, 2024 (EDT)

There is no free lunch in economics. Wartime spending on the military that temporarily boosts GNP is not being used on things that affect future economic growth such as R & D, education, and other factors that affect labor productivity, do lessen future economic growth. In addition, wars of attrition are expensive in terms of limiting future labor supply due to casualties and highly skilled/educated people fleeing a country to avoid being drafted. It also lowers the number of potential consumers that can buy products from businesses in the present and in the future all other things remaining equal. Furthermore, wartime spending tends to be inflationary. Putin is also raising taxes on the wealthy due to the war, which is helping causing many Russian millionaires to leave Russia. See: [[Essay: Top 12 reasons why people are flocking to the USA and leaving the corrupt, authoritarian countries of China and Russia]] and [[Essay: Russia's unfriendly business environment]]
Putin himself says that low labor productivity is a significant problem facing Russia (It's half that of the USA). See: Essay: Low labor productivity is one of the most acute and important problems facing Russia. Conservative (talk) 21:38, May 6, 2024 (EDT)

MPR: "Iran breaches Anglo-Zionist defenses in historic attack: a breakdown."

MPR: News story with the slant "Iran breaches Anglo-Zionist defenses in historic attack: a breakdown."

So now Conservapedia is pro-Iran? What's next? Conservapedia being pro-North Korea? Kim Jong Un did write "love letters" to Trump so maybe he's not all bad!

One of the classic moments of Trump relative to North Korea can be seen in this clip: 'Do we look handsome and thin?' Trump asks reporters during lunch with Kim. Conservative (talk) 21:10, April 22, 2024 (EDT)

Well, North Korea is being targeted by the Deep State for destruction. Just like Russia, Iran, and China. Which means we have a legitimate reason to support North Korea against South Korea, which is aligned with the Deep State. Of course, that doesn't mean we should excuse everything North Korea does or place Kim Jong Un on a pedestal. That regime is the worst kind of awful to the people it swore to protect, and an ideal world would be replaced. But unfortunately, the current circumstances make it counterproductive to support regime change. We have our own house to clean up first, and we need to bring Washington in line before it starts World War III, which would make it objectively worse than the North Korean regime is or perhaps could be.--Geopolitician (talk) 19:56, April 29, 2024 (EDT)

When I say "Wahhabi," I don't mean all Sunni countries. Just the ones whose regimes practice the Wahhabi strain of Sunnism. The other Sunni countries we can easily co-exist with. But I'm very, very pessimistic when it comes to the idea of co-existing with Wahhabi regimes.--Geopolitician (talk) 19:58, April 29, 2024 (EDT)
I do know how to read. And it doesn't take a rocket science to see that the article is written from a pro-Iran slant. Conservative (talk) 21:19, April 22, 2024 (EDT)
Not at all. The article provides professional, military technical analysis. Not the propaganda bs you've proven yourself enamored to since April 2022. See Essay: April 2022 was a pivotal moment in the future of global politics for decades to come. RobSThe Truth. Just Putin It Out There 21:25, April 22, 2024 (EDT)
Indeed, it is now obvious that the conflicts in Ukraine and Gaza are directly linked. Both can be traced back to the Deep State's efforts to destroy Russia, Iran, and China. Which begs the question. When it comes to Ukraine, Israel, and Taiwan, is it even possible to support one or two while opposing the other(s) without becoming ideologically dishonest? Or are the only ideologically honest positions either supporting all three or opposing all three? If so, then it is in our national interests to oppose all three.--Geopolitician (talk) 19:48, April 29, 2024 (EDT)
Russian sanctions beginning in 2014 drove Russia into the arms of Iran and China. That is to say, John McCain and Obama created this new "Axis of Evil" with the Magnitsky Act. And how did that happen? The Maidan coup was only a partial success, given that its main objective - to secure Sevastopol Naval Base for NATO and drive Russia out of the Mediterranean, Syria, and Africa, was a colossal failure - leading to the present-day war. Russia, China, Iran and the SCO (Shanghai Cooperation Organization) will never be as close as the Angelo-American relationship, but US sanctions have bound them together for now. RobSThe Truth. Just Putin It Out There 20:01, April 29, 2024 (EDT)
Ukraine, Israel, and Taiwan all serve as primary tools for the Deep State to destabilize Russia, Iran, and China, respectively. And those separate pet projects are part of a larger project which involves destabilizing the entire Eurasian Heartland in order to prevent any power aside from the Deep State from controlling the region, and by extension, the world. Russia, Iran, and China are the obstacles which prevent the Deep State from achieving this objective, which is why the Deep State hates them so much and regularly produces propaganda concerning them based on half-truths if not outright lies. Taking all this into account, I can't help but sympathize with Russia, Iran, and China, while feeling cold if not outright hostile towards Ukraine, Israel, and Taiwan. If those last three regimes are aligned with the Deep State, then they are no friends of ours.--Geopolitician (talk) 20:11, April 29, 2024 (EDT)
Yes, that was the original plan. But it's become obvious over the past year or so the US will have trouble fulling a victory over any single country or objective. Heck, it can't even defeat the Houthis who have tied up global shipping traffic, and the NATO alliance has already unraveled in the Red Sea. RobSThe Truth.

If you knew diddly squat about predictions, you would have foreseen the big economic problems in China right now instead of suggesting that I watch some leftist video on China. Furthermore, forecasts about the future look at the present, past trends/facts, etc. They do not exist in isolation in terms of the future. Also, research indicates that great forecasters are open-minded. Given your penchant for censorship (closemindedness), you will never be a good forecaster. Furthermore, great forecasters are dragonfly-eyed (Value examining diverse arguments/data/views and synthesize them. They don't merely live in a pro-China and Pro-Russia news bubble boy world).

Who's to blame for October 7?

At this point, it's becoming increasingly clear that Iran orchestrated the October 7 attack on Israel as a direct response to the Abraham Accords. On the surface level, it appears that the Iranian regime's opposition to the Abraham Accords was motivated primarily by antisemitism. But was it really? What if I told you that Iran actually had a valid reason to oppose the Abraham Accords?

Let's examine the Abraham Accords for a second. When they were first initiated in 2020, they were advertised as a series of related peace agreements between Israel and its enemies, nothing more. However, when one deconstructs the logic behind the Abraham Accords using the words of American, Israeli, and Arab officials, it becomes clear that this advertisement was a lie, and that the actual intent behind the Abraham Accords was to create an Arab-Israeli coalition against Iran, with Saudi Arabia as the crown jewel in the alliance. Please note that I do not blame Trump for this, he had good intentions but in this case was once duped by the stealth neocons who hijacked his administration from within and bastardized its pro-peace agenda, in hopes of sparking wars through more indirect means. Had Trump realized what the Abraham Accords were really about, it is highly unlikely he would've gotten onboard with them.

Now that we've examined the Abraham Accords, let's point out the obvious. With countries like Saudi Arabia in the alliance, the Abraham Accords at its full potential would pose not just a threat to the Iranian regime, but an existential threat to both the Iranian nation-state and the Iranian people. In the event of war, Saudi Arabia and its puppets would use their respective navies to cross the Strait of Hormuz and invade Iran from the south, and then (very likely) launch an Operation Barbarossa-like war of extermination. Because the Wahhabi fanatics which run those countries have long harbored genocidal hatred towards Shias in general and would gladly implement a "final solution" against them if given the opportunity. And of course, this is exactly what the neocons want. Iran knows all of this, and thus has every reason to prevent such an attack from happening at any cost.

Now, in the face of this enormous threat, if Iran wanted to strike early (which perhaps it had no choice but to do) then it had just two options. Either attack the Gulf states or attack Israel. On the surface level, the most logical by option by far would've been to attack the Gulf states. After all, they are the ones who genocide the Iranian people. When it comes to Iran, Israel just wants to be left alone, and only aligned with the Gulf States against Iran because of the many, many threats Iran has made against it over the last several decades. However, from a purely strategic standpoint the most logical option for Iran would've in fact been to attack Israel. Why? Because while attacking the Gulf states would've strengthened the Abraham Accords, attacking Israel would weaken and possibly destroy them. By attacking Israel, specifically through Hamas, not only would Iran be able to (indirectly) manipulate its Arab enemies into abandoning the Abraham Accords in solidarity with the Palestinians, it would also be able to (indirectly) manipulate Israel into waging a response so brutal that it would lose much of the sympathy it received from the international community in the immediate aftermath of the October 7 attack. And guess what? After Iran attacked Israel through Hamas, both of those things ultimately happened.

As horrific and evil as the events of October 7 were, I can't help but wonder if the Iranian regime is in fact much smarter than we give it credit for. That it's capable of such foresight. I've previously suspected that the Iranian regime chose to attack Israel solely due to its antisemitic prejudices, but now I'm seriously reconsidering that position, despite still being very open to it.

Oh, and let's not forget that Netanyahu more likely than not intentionally allowed the attack to happen for his own political reasons.

Taking all of the above into account, who is to blame for the events of October 7? Is it Iran? Is it Israel? Is it both?--Geopolitician (talk) 19:44, April 29, 2024 (EDT)

Even under a pessimistic scenario for the US dollar, the USA will likely not lose its world reserve currency status until about 20 years from now (The UK lost its world reserve currency status in stages and over time). But the fact is that China's economy is shaky and Russia depends a lot on the selling of oil to China. China/Russia are key BRICS countries. On top of this, the U.S. Dollar Index (DXY) is up by about 25% in the last 10+ years and the US dollar to Chinese yuan rate has skyrocketed in the last couple of years in favor of the US dollar.

Before replying, (or going into Hamas vision for an all Islamic state with no Israel at all as wel as Israel's olive branch approach pre Oct 7 to Gazans...), note, after a long post, (with all due respect, but) I'm surprise why Geopolotian omitted Arab-Palestinians leadership --the very orchestrators of the 3,000 perpetrators of animalistic atrocities (up-close butchery and mass rape under Allah Akhbar cries while laughing)-- from his conclusive question...

And when you look at the modern formation of Israel via the lens of biblical prophecy and how God appears to have had a hand in the Six Day War (See: GOD'S HAND IN THE SIX DAY WAR and Did God Help Israel During The Six Day War? and Six Days of Miracles and Fmr Israeli Commander: God Protected us in Battle), I wouldn't be betting on Hamas right now. With that being said, there has been enmity for decades between the Arabs/Jews and there will not be peace until Jesus returns. Conservative (talk) 12:58, May 2, 2024 (EDT)

Pro-Hamas riots financed by Soros, other Biden donors

Polls suggest that the Hamas issue doesn't resonate with ordinary Americans. So what is going on on campus? Its a bunch paid professionals doing the bidding of Soros and similar donors. See "Pro-Hamas Protests Funded by Biden’s Own Political Donors." Perhaps Biden is planning to make some moves against Israel and he wants to be able to claim that his hand was forced. The pro-Biden media clearly supports the rioters. The old liberal/left divide is dead. Politics is all corporate these days.

Cyrus Janssen on main page right news. He appears to be paid by the Chinese communist government

MPR news story: "Why the US can never sanction China. [2]"

The YouTube Cyrus Janssen videos appear to be paid Chinese propaganda as far as his videos about China: "So let’s clarify this. This is a CGTN/CCTV video, that CCTV is paying Cyrus Janssen to post on his YouTube channel, as his own video with his copyright, which then will be (magically) shared to CGTN’s channel and other Chinese platforms (“see how some enlightened foreigners understand and love us?”)."[8]

The Chinese communist government does appear to paying YouTubers for propaganda purposes (And communist governments don't have a good track record for telling the truth).[9][10][11]

With that being said, I am not a big believer in sanctions as they often don't work (like 35% success rate under certain conditions) and they and also have unintended consequences (Often don't work as intended).[12][13]

My past experience with Cyrus Jansenn is that he attempts to promote the idea that things are going great in China which is simply not true (High youth unemployment; real estate crisis, Chinese stock market has lost 7 trillion dollars in 3 years). See: [[Essay: It's time to be very bearish about China's long-term economy]]

The Chinese have been using stealth methods to undermine opponents and their morale for thousands of years and are still doing it today (Stealth War: How China Took Over While America's Elite Slept by Robert Spalding).

"Supreme excellence consists of breaking the enemy's resistance without fighting." - Sun Tzu

"Be extremely subtle, even to the point of formlessness. Be extremely mysterious, even to the point of soundlessness. Thereby you can be the director of the opponent's fate."

In addition, Zeihan admits that the Western media and other media is not as reliable/good as it used to be due to less fact-checking, loss of foreign bureaus, government interference, etc.: Why Can't We Trust the Media? (AKA Propaganda) || Peter Zeihan. But with that being said, he mentions in the video how he makes efforts to mitigate the problem of the news being less reliable.
With that being said, I don't treat what Zeihan or anyone else says as being the gospel truth. I prefer to use a number of sources for information gathering. Conservative (talk) 14:04, May 8, 2024 (EDT)

Since you appear unwilling to answer a simple question, I will answer it for you. Cyrus Jansenn is an unreliable source of information. My favorite Jansenn video is a video where he says China doesn't have an inflation problem while failing to mention its deflation problem (Big real estate crisis (See: Chinese real estate crisis (2020–present); Chinese stocks losing 7 trillion dollars of value in 3 years. see: Chinese stock markets), etc.).

No, you didn't prove that Zeihan is unreliable. For example, both Zeihan and Mearsheimer predicted the crisis in Ukraine. Zeihan also predicted the current inflation, increased Taiwan/China tensions, etc. No forecaster has 100% reliability in terms of their forecasts. But forecasting is a useful thing to do and that is why businesses, investors and governments do it. Conservative (talk) 14:25, May 8, 2024 (EDT)

Conservapedia's Peter Zeihan article says that he gives "upscale investor conferences". Well guess what? People who are upscale investors are typically not dummy/unsophisticated investors. And Zeihan fills up these conferences.
Zeihan gives useful demographic data and other data, but I don't regard him as gospel truth. I don't agree with everything that the Wall Street Journal says, but that doesn't mean that I am not going to read the Wall Street Journal again. That would be a stupid thing to do - especially if you are an investor. Conservative (talk) 14:39, May 8, 2024 (EDT)
Question: Why can't you just admit that you made a mistake citing Cyrus Jansenn on main page right? And why is it that you refuse to say whether he is a reliable or unreliable source and/or which label fits him best?

(ec) Trump wanted normal business relations with China, which included fairness by imposing tariffs for access to US markets. Trump didn't want to provoke a military confrontation, which is what the deep state wanted with both Russia and China. That's why they had Mueller investigate him, and that's why they impeached him. And that's why they want to keep him out of office now.

You left out "...and that's why they orchestrated the COVID pandemic."

We've been over this before. IMO the evidence suggests an accident on the Wuhan staff's part shorty after mid-October 2019. Shi Zhengli was working with Ralph Baric at the University of North Carolina. Shi Zhengli in Wuhan was working on the method of splicing in the protein, and Baric in North Carolina crafted the protein that made the virus susceptible to humans.

The country of Georgia is more religious and traditional than Russia.

The country of Georgia, which is bullied by Russia, is a much better country than Russia.

It has far less of an alcoholism/AIDS problem than Russia and it has more freedom/liberty than Russia. It is also against the homosexual agenda and a crowd of Orthodox Christians recently shut down a gay parade in Georgia.

Also, the women in Georgia are known worldwide for being beautiful (often seen as the most beautiful in the world) and making good wives.

Between 1960 and 1995, the crude divorce rate quadrupled (Avdeev and Monnier, 2000) and has fluctuated considerably since the 1990s."[17] In 2023, Russia had the third highest divorce rate in the world.
In addition, the food in the country of Georgia is well-known around the world for being delicious and it is better than Russian food. For many decades the Russians were under Soviet rule. Claude Lewis wrote in The Philadelphia Inquirer about the food in the former Soviet Union which had militant state atheism: "Many people in the Soviet Union have grown tired of institutionalized food in state-run cafeterias found at state-run cafeterias such as Stolovaya No. 22 and Stolovaya No. 23 where the menus seldom change and often lack variety. Most food in the Soviet Union is unimaginative, tasteless and bland."[18] But Russian cuisine has improved post Soviet era and is not all bland meat, cabbage and potatoes (Like many people mistakenly think).

I said that any "victory" Russia achieves in Ukraine will be a pyrrhic victory due to its current demographic crisis, low labor productivity rate, and the fact that war often economically cannibalizes future economic health (less spent on education, R & D for the civilian sector). Also, Russia needs to focus on diversifying its economy to make it more resilient for the long term and more prosperous long-term (The easy to get oil will be running out by 2035 according to Oil.com if memory serves). I stand by these statements. The oil-rich United Arab Emirates was much smarter than Russia when it came to diversifying its economy and that partly explains why it is an upper income country and Russia is stuck in a middle-income trap.

And if you don't know what I'm talking about, you especially need to just shut up. RobSGive Peace a chance 17:54, January 21, 2023 (EST)"

Propaganda and partisanship

Biden and the deep state are providing weapons to Nazis and jihads (Azov battalion & Hamas). They have been doing so for 10 years (the Arab Spring & Maidan coup). Why? They want to lure the American people into war.

The only way to counter this is for the American people to unite. This means putting partisanship on the shelf. RobSThe Truth. Just Putin It Out There 17:21, May 8, 2024 (EDT)

Caitlan Johnston also wrote the book: The Complete Book Of Astrology: Your personal guide to learning, understanding and using Astrology. Last time I checked, astrology is a lot of anti-biblical bunkum.

Col Macgregor evidently agrees with Caitlan Johnstone, calling China's military threat "a joke".
Now anytime you wish to engage in civil discussion by answering the question I posed, "Am I a stupid ______ for believing anti-China propaganda" in the numerous China subjects I've contributed to Conservapedia, please do so rather than spam redundant nonsense.

Why is main page right cluttered up with a lot of de-dollarization tripe in 2024 when the USA dollar index is up about 5% in 2024?

Question: Why is main page right cluttered up with a lot of de-dollarization tripe in 2024 when the USA dollar index is up about 5% in 2024? Here is the index: USD Index.

And the USA to Chinese Yuan currency exchange is pretty steady despite China buying a lot of gold: USA to Chinese Yuan currency exchange.

1 USD = 7 Chinese Yuan so the US dollar is much stronger than China's currency.

Please see: The US dollar is so strong that China's central bank, among others, just keeps loading up on gold. Conservative (talk) 19:54, May 8, 2024 (EDT)

De-dollarization may occur in the world in the 21st century as India, Brazil, etc. grow stronger and if the USA doesn't eventually control its deficit spending and pay down its debt over time (Like it did post WWII. See: [[Essay: The USA can reduce its national debt. It has done it before]]). On the other hand, China is facing big economic problems which could cause the dollar to rally as a safe haven. If de-dollarization occurs in the 21st century, it will likely happen slowly and in stages such as what happened to the British Pound.
As a whole, central banks are buying gold due to global economic uncertainties, wars, trade tensions between China and USA/China, debt growing in countries, etc. They are smart to do this. And what country holds the most gold in the world? It is the USA! See: [[Essay: Gold reserves by country. The USA is still golden!]]. Conservative (talk) 20:15, May 8, 2024 (EDT)

JP Morgan Bank on the US dollar in 2024 as reported on April 30, 2024: "Despite uncertain macro conditions, the dollar has continued to demonstrate strength — largely thanks to sticky inflation, a resilient U.S. economy and year-to-date highs in yields. Indeed, in a display of U.S. exceptionalism, the greenback has gained against just about every other major currency in 2024."[20]

There you have it. The US dollar is doing exceptionally well! And God willing, if Trump is elected in 2024, the dollar will become bigger, better and stronger than ever before thanks to Donald Trump's big brain and his stable geniusness! Conservative (talk) 01:42, May 9, 2024 (EDT)

Markets Insider, May 2024: "The US dollar has been surprisingly resilient in recent months. It's risen against 15 of 16 major currencies so far in 2024, and posted year-to-date gains of more than 5% against the Japanese yen and Swiss franc. It's currently at levels decisively above peaks seen in 2015, 2016, and 2020."[21]
The US dollar owes its strength to the USA's economy which is almost as big as the economies of China/Japan/Germany combined.[22] And China's economy is under more duress right now than the American economy (See: Chinese real estate crisis (2020–present) and Youth unemployment in China).
Also, if BRICS were a shopping mall, its anchor stores are Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa and the newly joined UAE (Iran joined BRICS too but this is Iran's current economic situation: Iran’s Stalled Economy: A Struggle for Sustainability). There are reasons to be bullish about the futures of India/Brazil, but China and Russia are stuck in a middle-income trap. South Africa has been hit by 6 economic shocks since 2020 so it does not possess a strong economy.[23] On top of this, Oil.com reported in 2023, Analysts Predict 25-42% Decline In Russian Oil Production By 2035 and unlike the oil-rich country UAE, Russia has not diversified its economy and become an upper-income country.
Furthermore, there are strong reasons to believe that India-USA ties will increase as India's government is keen on getting investment from Wall Street firms as it aspires to be the third largest economy in the world by the end of the decade (China is increasingly seen as a risky investment). In addition, the UAE and USA have close ties in terms of government and economic ties.[24] Conservative (talk) 07:47, May 10, 2024 (EDT)
For the sake of argument, let's say the US dollar weakens somewhat. In one aspect, that could be music to the ears of many US corporations who could sell more internationally.[25] The Hill notes concerning multinational U.S. corporations: "U.S. multinationals are also very dynamic and global leaders. What stands out is how the largest companies ranked by market capitalization have changed over time. Today, U.S. multinational corporations dominate the rankings: Four of the five largest companies in the world — Apple ($3 trillion), Microsoft ($2.4 trillion), Alphabet ($1.7 trillion) and Amazon ($1.4 trillion) — are headquartered in the U.S., and only five in the top 20 are outside the U.S."[26] Conservative (talk) 08:34, May 10, 2024 (EDT)
I have some prime real estate in the Everglades to sell you.
See what I mean? When User:Conservative is called out on his naivete, he doubles and triples down. Most people would learn by now.
Unlike User:Conservative, none of my work has been cited in a federal hate crime indictment. But User:Conservative never listens, never learns, and doesn't care what aspersions are cast upon the rest of us. RobSThe Truth. Just Putin It Out There 08:44, May 10, 2024 (EDT)

The line "I have some prime real estate in the Everglades to sell you." is not an actual argument. It's just a subjective opinion by you bereft of any factual support. It's what logicians call an "argument from incredulity" (It asserts that a proposition must be false because it contradicts one's personal expectations or beliefs). I cannot stress enough that your opinions are not facts and that is why you have to use actual facts to support your contentions.

Also, personal attacks are what logicians call an "ad hominem" logical fallacy. This once again shows that you lack strong factual grounding in your subjective opinions. Just because some crazy guy attacks a homosexual after reading an article of mine, doesn't mean that the USA dollar is not a strong currency. Your argumentation is utterly weak. I wish it were more challenging in terms of its factual support because then I might actually learn something. Conservative (talk) 09:12, May 10, 2024 (EDT)

RobSThe Truth. Just Putin It Out There 09:05, May 10, 2024 (EDT)

Let me get this straight. You want me and others to lose my belief that the USA is a strong currency because some crazy guy attacked a homosexual after reading one of my articles. That's totally illogical and a nonsequitur. Frankly, it made me laugh. Stick to the facts and cease using illogical argumentation to support your very weak contentions.

The strength of a currency is positively correlated to a country's economic strength.

The United States, a country that is about 250 years old, is doing much better economically than China (and its main ally), which has had 4,000 years to perfect its culture!
