Before trying so hard to put your thoughts into the ether, stop for a moment and ask yourself if you can’t find the answer to that question. Is everyone on the fucking planet wrong? Or are you being stupid? Are stocks different from crypto? Why was there a need to bail out mortgage buyers? Did everyone just wake up one day and make a decision or is there detailed reasoning available for your perusal should you choose to look?

There have always been people who have recognized social idiocies and questioned why other people follow them blindly. We are not unique in that regard. Where we are unique though, is in living in an era of unprecedented freedom to voice that opinion and call others out (in the west at least). Which means, errors get caught before compounding too much. It also means knowing that no decision is made with the greater good or lining my pockets mantra solely. It is a combination of both.
