The US Blockade of Hormuz Is Leaking — Iran's Ghost Fleet Is Still Moving Oil

The sanctions system that underpins Western geopolitical leverage is being systematically undermined. Iran, Russia, Venezuela — the shadow economy has built infrastructure resilient enough to absorb interdiction pressure.
This video covers the dark fleet operation in detail. The question isn't whether Iran can be stopped — it's whether any sanctioned country can truly be stopped anymore.

Rule 3: Posts must be on-topic, focusing on collapse.
Posts must be focused on collapse. If the subject matter of your post has less focus on collapse than it does on issues such as prepping, politics, or economics, then it probably belongs in another subreddit.
Posts must be specifically about collapse, not the resulting damage. By way of analogy, we want to talk about why there are so many car accidents, not look at photos of car wrecks.

So Iran's tankers have grown wheels and driven across Oman to get round the blockade? My goodness that's a horrible AI thumbnail. Doesn't bode well for the quality of the video.

How is this collapse?

It's kinda not but it kinda is. I don't want to speak for the OP here, but if this situation continues it will deepen the current oil crisis (we're already in one, it's just not being felt everywhere yet). Iran being able to export even limited quantities of oil, throws them a financial lifeline. I don't doubt that their minister is in Russia for similar reasons.
The more leaky the blockade, the longer Iran can keep the strait closed just like the US can. Well, they might just go on anyway. Ships aren't moving through the strait.

Everyone is so sick of the US corruption, manipulation and stupidity. What an idiotic mess they brought the rest of the world in. Why would anyone stand behind the US blockading a vital trade route?

because we bribe our 'allies' with piles of loot we print for free.
