Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

What happens when the shipping companies start downsizing out of necessity because they can't run their fleets without the profits they previously had? How long can they keep running ships they don't need?
The Thandos snap of cheap international freight
Critical support to Comrade Trump in his war against climate change
Also, once trade is redirected away then what is the incentive to start trading with the US again, especially if the US goes into a recession and consumption drops. Seems to me that this could be a self reinforcing phenomenon where the collapse of trade could trigger an economic crisis which will ensure that the US becomes isolated.
The incentive is growth and profit as always but it'll be much slower to restore than it was to destroy.
exactly, the US isn't going to be playing from a position of power going forward
Global temperature shoots up because there's reduced overseas shipping like it did with reduced Sulphur fuel back in 2020
Temp goes up with less boats? Huh
