To me, this reads like a CIA guy selling people on the idea that a modest step away from the dollar as reserve currency is the end of the world. This is “if you give people healthcare we’ll be commies tomorrow.” Look at how this is couched:
if the BRICS+ use a kind of Liberty Bond patriotic model, they may well be able to create international reserve assets denominated in the BRICS+ currency even in the absence of developed market support. This entire turn of events—introduction of a new gold-backed currency, rapid adoption as a payment currency, and gradual use as a reserve asset currency—will begin on August 22
If this, maybe that, a mention of the developed world as if they’ll peacefully let the market decide and not violently react. This is drumming up fear, not a sober prediction.
I don’t see why both can be true, he says in the note he’s been letting the intelligence agencies for years this would happen if they over used the dollar as an economical tool, said and done, it’s happening. I don’t think he wants for the BRICS to dominate the political sphere, he obviously wants the Usonian empire to persist, but nevertheless his analysis is valid.

I agree there’s some truth to what he says; he’s just overselling it, especially how imminent it is.
