☆ Yσɠƚԋσʂ ☆@lemmy.mlto World News@lemmy.ml•NATO allies are discussing reclaiming some Chinese-owned infrastructure in Europe71·1 year agoThe sheer ignorance displayed by these dimwits is truly astounding, as they fail to grasp the profound extent to which their economies are dependent on China in reality. It’s akin to a pampered house cat that believes it reigns supreme within its domain, oblivious to the fact that its sustenance originates from elsewhere entirely.

If the south can be freed from the clutches of the burger empire, things there would improve immeasurably.

Russia—moved from the upper-middle-income to the high-income category:
Economic activity in Russia was influenced by a large increase in military related activity in 2023, while growth was also boosted by a rebound in trade (+6.8%), the financial sector (+8.7%), and construction (+6.6%). These factors led to increases in both real (3.6%) and nominal (10.9%) GDP, and Russia’s Atlas GNI per capita grew by 11.2%.
I’ve found it’s pretty good matching up with predictions.
If you bother going back through the videos in the channel, then it’s pretty obviously not matching up with how things developed.
Most of US economy isn’t productive manufacturing output, it’s stuff like service industry, software shops, financial economy, etc. Some of it, such as the health insurance industry, is actively harmful to society. There’s a great article explaining how US lost most of its productive economy at this point.

Industrial output in US accounts for something like 15% of the overall economy, and steel production levels are comparable to Russia. That’s a pretty good proxy for the size of industry in a country. So, when you compare US military spending to the productive economy in the country, then it’s a very high percentage of the industrial GDP.
Also, the article you linked counts all the military adjacent economy to get to the 10% number, US military spending would also look a lot higher if we did that. US defense spending is currently well over $1 trillion a year.

Meanwhile, US industrial output is around $2 trillion.
☆ Yσɠƚԋσʂ ☆@lemmy.mlOPto World News@lemmy.ml•The Sahel stands up and the world must pay attention. This past weekend the heads of state from Burkina Faso, Mali, and Niger met in the first summit of the Alliance of Sahel States.62·1 year agoI can assure you that the world is paying attention to Africa kicking out colonialists.
Manufacturing, food production, research, tech, you name it. Meanwhile, I’ll reiterate my advice that I gave you last time. Go back through the channels you watch, look at their past predictions, and compare how they hold up today. If a lot of what they say turns out to be bullshit, as is the case with this channel, then maybe find a more reliable source. You seem to be a real sucker for these propaganda channels. Weren’t you peddling Perun last time?
Again, even if you inflate it to 10%, that’s very clearly not a war economy. 90% of the economy isn’t oriented towards the war, and the war has practically no impact on day to day lives of the vast majority of the people.
Imagine thinking they would risk killing their own guy for a false flag.
