https://thecradle.co/article-view/24080/de-dollarization-kicks-into-high-gear some examples that haven't come up in the thread already: quote:Less than four weeks ago, Banco Bocom BBM became the first Latin American bank to sign up as a direct participant of the Cross-Border Interbank Payment System (CIPS), which is the Chinese alternative to the western-led financial messaging system, SWIFT. quote:The deal between Russia and Bangladesh for the construction of the Rooppur nuclear plant will also bypass the US dollar. The first $300 million payment will be in yuan, but Russia will try to switch the next ones to rubles. quote:Russia and Bolivias bilateral trade now accepts settlements in Boliviano. Thats extremely pertinent, considering Rosatoms drive to be a crucial part of the development of lithium deposits in Bolivia. hydrocarbons: quote:The Shanghai Petroleum and Natural Gas Exchange went into business in March 2018. Any oil producer, from anywhere, can sell in Shanghai in yuan today. This means that the balance of power in the oil markets is already shifting from the US dollar to the yuan.

So like, is there any way to graph the sensitivity of the USD's value in relation to the amount of it used by other nations? I'd be curious to see the correlation between how much the currency is used and how fast it's value changes. Edit: those sentences sound basically the same, I'm just wondering if there's a number I could look at that would provide lols. thechosenone has issued a correction as of 01:41 on May 4, 2023 |

nah, you were right, it's just that Russia had spent 2008-2022 setting up a big trampoline that made the nuke bounce off and hit the West in the crotch with a big donk sound

dead gay comedy forums posted:the fact that international politics have moved past the stage of "well there's no such thing as financial neutrality" is yuuuuueg There's a great episode of the ALAB Podcast where they talk about how sanctions are literally equivalent to outright war. They develop the argument quite well, but the gist of it is that when one country attacks another, the way they win is not by defeating each other in pitched battle but by doing sufficient damage to the other's industrial base. So when one country bombs the factories of another to take said factories out of the war, sanctions accomplish the same thing by starving said factory of raw materials. Same thing with destroying a convoy of supplies, sanctions does the same thing by preventing said supplies from being imported. When the supplies are medical, sanctions kill just as surely as a bullet, and when sanctions reduce overall life expectancy, it kills just as surely as dropping bombs. But conducting war by sanctions plays much better on the evening news, since the violence is sanitized behind economic "choices". Countries have, of course, understood this for a long time but it looks like there's finally a critical mass to move away from the dollar to reduce the ability of the West to fight in this way.

A blockade is an act of war. Sanctions do the same thing as a blockade. Of course it's an act of war.

Fat-Lip-Sum-41.mp3 posted:A blockade is an act of war. Sanctions do the same thing as a blockade. Of course it's an act of war. Postmodernity muddled the waters enough that even that vocabulary got trashed. When I explain that Cuba suffers a blockade, for all intents and purposes, even to this day a lot of people get surprised. Just because there aren't destroyers stopping ships from getting there doesn't mean that it isn't functionally the same. And that's important to emphasize, always. That "of course" gets missed by a lot of people, and that's the point: even happens to some people on the receiving end of sanctions (especially the ones in a class position of some relevance) think they are "misunderstandings". Getting it clear cut as an act of aggression and elaborating why to people is one of those things that it's good for us Marxists to do
