American imperialism at its best.
The other thing is realpolitik... Iran entered the game with interventions in e.g. Syria and also the Iranian-backed Houthis were able to close the Red Sea to American commerce during Resident Biden. It was naive to think that America would take that challenge to hegemony without serious consequences even if they were not immediately forthcoming. And I remind the readers that a large amount of oil still exists in the Persian Gulf region, which US and Anglo concerns are interested in, and the USA has successfully induced regime change in Iran already, albeit a long time ago.
Anyway, it's clear that under Resident Rump there is a very different agenda in play, aggressive and expansionist without the pretense of the neoliberal age. The USA is back to believing in zero sum games like in the 19th century. We have gone "back to the future". The age of empires is far from over people...
BRICS nevesstarterd, it was always a cocktail party excuse for politicians
Goddamn you are dumb. Are you playing with GI Joes while thinking of this nonsensical diarrhea of the mouth?
America is irrelevant. Fk the parasites. They worse then China.
Enjoy your dwindling collapse.
America is just isreals bitch and nobody has less morals then a fking jew parasite.
They blow up the buildings while the firefighters go up. They mk ultra mind control its own population. And you crazy Simps want more??? You retards.
I'm not pro brics BTW im pro plan B 😎
Maybe it’s the bear market, but I member wen the talking points from the Bitcoiner Influencer Set revolved around a long term view w/faith, family, morality, etc. in mind.
Who the fuck wants to ally with a historically belligerent, Imperial State that is kidnapping and killing world leaders abroad for regime change, while actively covering up a blackmail/pedo/murder ring at home? Especially when said State is cucked by a fanatical, apartheid State actively carrying out a genocide?
So, if your reflective take after these States collectively murdering another world leader and killing 100+ kids at a school is China weak, America strong, you’re a fucking retard.
Thanks.. you just saying it how it is.
I won't shoot the messenger no more.
You wouldn’t have freedom of speech to say what you just did. AND Bitcoin wouldn’t exist. Pull that crap in China or Russia. Your done. American isn’t perfect but you need to realize the world is a jungle.
China can't compete... But Americans with their handguns keep the "superpower" in check because Second Amendment.
Lmao
I’m describing reality as it is, you’re describing it as you wish it to be. I don’t put much thought into that.
No.
The US is powered by the USD$ users. If you want this, use the dollars...
Give me a better one
Enjoy 😉
If you tell the difference between reality and your own opinion, might want to explore that with a therapist. You are creeping up on narcissism.
Ah yes, I have freedom of speech, so I should be thankful and support more carnage. Is this the same free speech that continues to limit American’s criticism of Israel? Or is it the free speech that has routinely led to the censorship and debanking of antiwar movements? Also, what does free speech matter when your government doesn’t give a single fuck about its constituents?
Bitcoin is meant to be permissionless; so I don’t need to cope, cuck, and simp for any State. The US is the greatest purveyor of violence and it’s not close. So, if you believe in a higher power or care about the loss of innocent lives, you wouldn’t be larping and shrugging off perpetual war.
Isn’t Bitcoin meant to upset the “current reality”? If you went under the logic you’re describing above, you woul goodhearrted dn’t put much thought into Bitcoin, as the current reality doesn’t embrace it. Nonetheless, you seemingly have no issue with larping on pods and collecting speaker fees.
That aside, there’s a difference between describing what you think is the “current reality” and bootlicking for imperialism. I summarized the “current reality” in my initial post. The difference is I don’t see the world as a game of Risk. Moreover, I don’t cheer on the goblins as they rape and pillage the world in the name of goodhearrted Americans. So, once again if your deeps thoughts following the start of yet another unwanted, regime change war, is America strong/China weak, you’re likely a Fed or a simple retarded.
Rah rah. Love my daddy State. They’re so stroooong 😍🤤
Dissenters just prove that American dominance make globalists seethe
Being strong is a mandatory!
Obamas weakness with Iran has gotten us to current state. Being against our flex is short sighted bc we have no other choice since USD dominance is falling off a cliff
War is bad, but American dominance is a must
I love this country and am grateful everyday that my great grandparents fled communist Russia to make their future descendants lives as amazing as our lives are
God Bless America 🇺🇸
He described reality as it is and you perceive it as another american brainwashed. And then we ask why btc fails.....
Take the head out of your own ass sir
You might be eating these words in a few years. Who said this conflict is over lol? I think we're only getting started.
You think we're all the sudden going to get an Iranian regime that likes/tolerates a jewish state?
The spiral of violence, even after the snake has been decapitated, will be tough to stop. We can't afford this shit LOL. Print, baby, print!
Not much of a superpower… just sayin

Disagree. It’s easy to start wars and take out leaders. The hard part begins now. BRICS isn’t dead yet
Hubris.
He’s clearly a grifter or a Fed. This is the same bozo that was trying to pump his bags by pitching the 6.15 meme to a younger generation with the notion of riches and women if you dump everything into Bitcoin.
He was pitching this narrative while simultaneously pumping the importance of family, marriage, and conservative values. Yet despite these deep conservative values, he somehow manages to easily shrug off and bootlick when innocent families abroad are being killed by America and its proxies (Ukraine, Israel, etc.).
Mind you, he’s also a huge Trump simp that parrots brain dead, boomer talking points (among them that all the world’s ills being tied to communism/bootstrap theory/culture war bullshit).
He’s not a deep thinker; he’s a grifter.
Another zionist cocksucker.

Chillax Br0..
SO WHAT? WE MURDER EVERYONE WHILE OUR CITIZENS GET REPEATEDLY RAPED (AND ALSO KILLED INDIRECTLY). WE DONT EVEN WIN WARS ANYMORE.... WHAT EXACTLY ARE YOU EXPRESSING CONFIDENCE IN? THE MIC?
The framing of 'China abandoned them' might be reading betrayal into what is actually a designed exit. China's foreign policy toolkit — BRI loans, military hardware, diplomatic cover — functions more like a franchise model than an alliance. You extract value during the relationship, and you don't absorb the franchise's losses when it fails. Venezuela and Iran weren't allies in any traditional sense; they were leverage points. Cheap military equipment keeps them in orbit without creating a defense obligation China would have to honor.
The part worth separating out is BRICS itself. The bloc was never a military or ideological project — it was, at its core, an attempt to build dollar-alternative payment infrastructure. That motivation doesn't disappear because the political theater around it collapsed. The countries driving BRICS settlement rails (India, UAE, China) have different and often competing interests, but they all share a long-term incentive to reduce dollar dependency. That project can survive the Venezuela and Iran chapters precisely because it was never about defending those countries — it was about routing around the Swift system.
The real question might be less about whether BRICS is dead and more about what China actually loses here. If the mercantilist model holds — extract resources, collect political alignment, exit when costly — then there's no reputational cost that matters to Beijing. The next set of partners will still take the loans and the hardware, because the alternative (dollar-denominated debt and Western conditionality) looks worse. Does the pattern break if a credible third option emerges, or does it just keep cycling?
Good response. There’s at least a significant reputational hit
I will assume you are keeping a neutral tone.
Because if you aren't, I think you lost the plot as a bitcoiner. And as a father.
I'm not hating. You do you. But fuck war.
I am all for getting guns for protection. Not for imposing my will on others.
This is a neutral observation about the state of the world yes.
😂😂
People big mad in the replies
Ok then I have no beef with it.
You probably don't care. But I actually admire a lot of your takes.
In an ideal sense I’d like America to be isolationist, but unfortunately that’s not the way the world works
Imagine keeping a neutral tone after using an ample platform in the space to simp for Trump.
Imagine cosplaying as a family man, when his take away from yet another regime change war, in which the US and Israel are bombing schools,
police departments, and hospitals, is America strong/China weak.
Imagine pumping your Bitcoin bags and collecting speaker fees for years yapping about freedom tech/permissionless money, only to lick a boot when his favorite reptile in office silences free speech against Israel, kills local protesters against ICE, signs EOs to continue the poisoning of our food, kidnaps and kills world leaders, and furthers the Epstein coverup.
Anyone familiar with counter intelligence has to know we have Feds in the space. Hodl is either a fed or a retard; either way, he’s not a serious individual.
China and others will feel the pain of US strikes in Iran via oil supply. I’m sure China not happy right now.
Not a coincidence
You spelled America wrong. It's spelled I S R A E L

FedHodl: Posts smooth-brain boomer imperialist take.
Simps: It would be fascinating to hear you on a pod, lol.
A superpower kicked out of Afghanistan by goat herders in sandals armed with Kalashnikovs? Interesting.
Bro there’s no war in the modern era we would have ever lost if there were no such considerations as “hearts and minds” and politicking. You can’t slaughter with the kind of impunity that you’d want to in order to win, with all of the footage on broadcast tv and social media. The Russians in Afghanistan were brutal but that shit was the 80’s and it hadn’t become the media environment we’re in now. And we kind of fucked the Russians there. We’re America so it didn’t really matter a ton to the citizens here if Russians were killing mountain tribesman. We didn’t help the mujh cuz we felt bad for them, at all. No holds barred, (non nuclear) I’ll be humble here, the US fucking destroys any 1 other world superpower or nation without question. Like Cannae levels of destruction.
Russia just beat America in Ukraine.
America is not number one anymore
This thread is full of fake smart people.
Agreed.
Though I'd prefer peaceful trade over, isolationim, I would take isolationism over violent threats any day.
The art of neutrality is lost.
How do you know the crime isn't part of a long line of retaliation. And you hop l into the mix willingly.
Rule no.1 I was taught in taekwondo is to avoid conflict.
I didn't get far in taekwondo but the principle stuck with me.
I'm not an officer of justice. And I don't want to be. I'm just a fan of peace & collaboration.
Humans are flawed and they make mistakes. I don't like to point fingers.
I thought trump was going to be good for the country also. And here I am realizing that that was a misconception. And I was wrong.
Maybe hodl also thinks he's wrong.
Doesn't change the fact that we don't think we're right about Bitcoin and the power for peace a stable money has.
Iran is no pushover. After pounding sand in Afghanistan for 20 freaking years I don't believe for a second it is going to be neutered in the slightest. Nor is Venezuela neutered. Same government in power. Trump did some token bullshit and talks big but I don't think it slowed down much of anything to do with BRICS.
Yep it seems US can do this to any coutry except russia and china. But that does not mean everyone else will ally US, thats a falacy. People ally with china not because of their military power. There are other insentives.
When you was learning taekwondo I was playing risk. That’s the difference
Well said.
Awesome, I'll see if I can set something up.
I appreciate your humility re: Trump. The lack of a democratic primary, Harris being steadfast that Biden wasn’t the corpse everyone clearly saw, and Harris not distancing herself from Biden’s support of Israel’s genocide certainly paved the way for Trump/Vance.
Personally, I voted 3rd party, as a protest vote, as while I was hopeful the Trump admin would deescalate the Ukraine war, Trump’s connection to the Adelson Zio-slush-fund and his rhetoric using Palestinian as a pejorative, I was confident he would be terrible for the Palestinian people.
Re: AmericanFedHodl, what does he bring to the space? He’s a rich kid from the entertainment industry that checks notes - rode a scooter for a long time or drove a beater so he could get more Bitcoin. Much WOW! Much relatability! No wonder he’s a regular on the pod circuit and gets paid speaker fees to attend Bitcoin conferences. Definitely not a Fed planted in to sheepdog dissidents towards authoritarianism.
Even if he’s not a Fed, his takes are classic neocon boomer brain slop. For a champion of freedom money (and definitely not a Fed), he sure has a tendency to bootlick and fanboi our military. Go check out his appearance with Preston about a month ago when Preston, AmericanFedHodl, and Booth were taking turns jerking each other off over the excitement of the US government kidnapping Maduro. His takes today are in line with such radicals as Lindsey Graham and John Fetterman.
All wars are BS
Delta captured the Venezuelan president and we didn’t lose a single man. They make Hollywood movies about that happening in the US starring Gerard Butler. And they have to make the movie because it could never fucking happen.
1 million Iranian Rials is the equivalent of $0.76. Even if we didn’t blow them to shit. That regime was on its way out.
This also proves that Gold is not gonna replace the dollar (lol), Only Bitcoin. Peter Schiff can keep coping.
Having all this super military power and you’re still Israel’s little bitch. I’d be embarrassed to post this if I were you.
Clueless
They make your weapons and you have lost the last 10 wars you’ve started.

He seems to get more retarded by the week.
He's always been a mid.
The USA has the most effective military on the planet. Defending its homeland, it could take on any ten other countries and win.
That doesn't make your post any less of a cope.
If the USA started openly committing genocide in other countries instead of insincere "hearts and minds", your economy would look like Israel's right now - educated young people leaving, small businesses failing, capital outflowing, international boycotts, and only massive aid & deficit spending keeping the economy afloat.
And where are you going to get the aid? No sugar daddy out there big enough for America.
And two seconds to kill Charlie Kirk, after he started asking the wrong questions...
When you’re alienated from the true world, I have sympathy tbh.
Same as the North Korea dude, he only knows what he’s told
killed him or disappeared him
The United States must protect Taiwan no matter what. Otherwise, the chip industry will be destroyed by the CCP, which will be a global disaster.
Taiwan is the center of global chip technology. Taiwan.
It can't be destroyed by the CCP.
Who lost a fucking war to rice farmers in Vietnam?
Who lost a war to goat herders in Afghanistan?
The American military is a fucking joke.
Bombing civilians is the only thing USA can do to Iran or anywhere else.
Bombing civilians alone can not win a damn war you fucking retarded cuck
Taiwan which can’t be ruined by the CCP.
They are in America, the machine is strong there. PropagandaFest5000.
America should be renamed to Israel (quite literally) as the behaviour is only that which they want.
If I was a robot who only did what my mum does, the robot would be mum.

With zero justification for doing any such thing or practicing continuing extortion on Venezuela. Nothing to celebrate.
And attacking Iran is a whole different kettle of fish. Very large country of 90 million people well armed and its arms well protected. Remember how we pounded sand in Afghanistan for 20 years and recently could even stop the Houtis? This will not go at all well.
Who told you there was no justification? Where did you read that. Were you a guest during the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence meetings? Or did you read leftist claptrap on the internet.
There would be McDonald’s and Jamba Juices in Kabul right now if we had one person in charge during the whole affair with a clear goal and no reservations other than total victory. Our fault in Afghanistan wasn’t ability. It was the lack of a clear, well thought out game plan that didn’t have to deal with 4 year elections and politics.
There is no justification offered and certainly not to Congress which is the body that gets to declare war. Trump didn't even try. Complete fabrications of them being responsible for Fentanyl crisis didn't cut it for Venezuela either. Stop casting aspersions and give the justifications if you think there are any? I don't have to be in those meetings to know no justification was offered that stands up to scrutiny. I remember Iraq and the claims "government must no something and have good reason". It did not. We should be fooled like that again.
Total victory in the shape of what exactly and why? Spell it out.
One person in charge for the 20 years? Doesn't sound like any sort of democracy. Sounds like a dictatorship on a monarchy.
I was just born into this, and thankful for the US doing this. All things considered, I‘ll be rather on the page with the mightiest military in the world than anybody else.
China is literally producing tomahaws for the US military.
