Before You Share That “The World Is

 📣 Before You Share That “The World Is Dumping the USA” Post… Read This

I just came across one of those long, angry viral posts claiming:

👉 “The world doesn’t trust the U.S. anymore”
👉 “Everyone is dumping U.S. bonds”
👉 “The dollar is collapsing”
👉 “Economic apocalypse is coming”

It was full of swearing, rage, and dramatic language.

So I did something simple:

I slowed down and fact-checked it.

Here’s what I found.

Yes — a few pension funds in Sweden and Denmark reduced some U.S. bonds.
Yes — some countries are buying more gold (which they always do during uncertain times).
Yes — China has slowly lowered its holdings over many years.

But that’s normal portfolio diversification.

It’s not “the world running for the exits.”

Meanwhile: ✔️ The U.S. is still selling trillions in bonds
✔️ The dollar is still the global reserve currency
✔️ Most foreign investors still hold massive U.S. assets

So why did the post feel so intense?

Because it wasn’t analysis.

It was emotional manipulation.

Big red flags: 🚩 Lots of profanity
🚩 “Collapse” and “end of empire” language
🚩 Cherry-picked facts with no scale
🚩 Very long rant designed to overwhelm
🚩 Blame + anger instead of explanation

Honestly, it reads like someone fed a few headlines into AI and said: “Write something inflammatory.”

And that’s the internet now.

Not necessarily truth.
Just outrage farming.

Remember: Fear spreads faster than facts.

Before sharing posts that make you feel panicked or furious, pause and ask: 👉 Is this informing me or provoking me?

Calm information empowers. Rage posts manipulate.

Let’s not help misinformation travel — even when it agrees with our politics.

Share wisely. 🌿
