Saudi Arabia and OPEC+ Makes Surprise 1 Million-Barrel Oil Production Cut

Step 1 (Russia): Start a war in Europe to force NATO to boost military spending using printed money, increasing inflation, and as a bonus, showcasing to the world that the US has unapologetically weaponized USD/SWIFT payments

Yeah, this helped Russia so much. Inflation is rapidly coming back under control in the U.S while Russia has been showcased to be a paper tiger militarilywhose economy will never recover under the current regime. They've lost millions of workers to emigration and hundreds of thousands to literal deaths in war. Strengthening NATO also helps them so much by... making it harder to do anything militarily in Europe and uniting existing members together even more so than before? While also adding two new member states to NATO? And also giving NATO valuable modern day military data (testing weapons, strategy...) to better prepare for a potential invasion of Taiwan?

Step 2 (China): Use Chinese-backed shell companies to cause a series of Western bank runs. Create a bunch of fires that The Fed has to scramble to solve by unleashing the printer.

lol what? any source?

Sit back & watch the rapid demise of USD as a global reserve currency. In the fray, take Taiwan.

If the 'rapid demise of the USD as a global reserve currency' happens then the whole world is falling apart, lol. Oil is not the main reason the USD is so strong.

Oh I see, this 'Jason P Lowery' guy (why are you quoting him? he's not notable at all aside from having nearly 100k twitter followers?) is a bitcoin obsessed idiot. Of course a web3 dunce has no understanding of economics. Does bitcoin somehow come out as the winner in his stupid book that he's peddling all over on twitter?

In the fray, take Taiwan.

None of this would prevent the U.S from defending Taiwan. Do you also think South Korea and Japan would just sit idly by? China's only notable ally would be Russia. They would have no major friends left if they invade Taiwan. China also has to think about how India looks at their borders following a potential invasion, they can't just ignore that situation.
