Well, Saudi Arabia did join BRICS, and in trade with China is using the yuan. I think this is pretty big. Turkey is also in BRICS, but is tied economically to the West and its currency is under fire, so they are acting weird. And this is why we have the Ukrainian and Gaza wars, to stock the flight from the dollar. Who wins will decide, but we got some ways to go.

I know it's a spoof, but maybe predictive. Endless wars, and bad PR, to say nothing of genocide will eventually topple the dollar with the new currencies on the rise. But to tell you the truth…. I don’t understand a word of economics so I’m not sure what keeps the whole thing going or when it will fall apart. Structures can teeter for decades and then out of the blue—the black swan—they are over.

I hear you. I'm not sure anyone really understands economics. Least of all me.
