Oddbean new post about login | logout That’s b rated Hollywood stuff don’t you think? Well below Russias game. They have something much more terrifying to the US… BRICS. GPS spoofing a ship into a bridge from on-site is teenage cyber gang level. Russias game is more like starting a global exit run on the U.S. dollar and collapsing 50% of the U.S. fertilizer supply the same year.
Why not both tho
Because it’s Russia and not a movie or video game. And besides if Russia had done it, it would be all over every news channel as a reason to send troops and money to Ukraines
Not if it makes USG look that weak and incompetent though. Anyway who knows
Again, the best way to make the US look weak is not to run a ship into a bridge, but to publicly destabilize its economy and pull its allies into financial deals which exclude the U.S. and ignore its sanctions. That is a public bitch slap almost impossible to recover from. Russia is winning the war in Ukraine, and BRICS is winning. But it is more fun to think the Russians blew up a bridge. 🇷🇺🪆🌉💣
