Something I'm thinking about with the current situation in the Strait of Hormuz is how economic reality and actual, real life industrial capacity clashes against economic fiction and gambling. 20% of the world's oil and gas supply is currently stuck, with other goods heavily affected (fertilizer most prominently), actual oil infrastructure has been blown up to hell with years of reconstruction ahead, there are already shortages in major countries... and "the markets" keep going up and down like nothing is happening, a total disconnection from reality

And this is of course to say nothing about the actual deaths and suffering in Iran, and so many other nations. It's all completely disconnected from reality from them. Just one look at a grieving mother with a child dead from a missile should stop everything on its tracks, force resignations, make these people fall one by one. Yet the world turns as always, and they double down, against the disgust and repudiation of the world (and no matter how bad things might seem, the world realizes), they triple down, preaching cruelty and genocide.

To my loved ones: i am not doing very good at all
