Irrational exuberance is the new norm. If you are not irrationaly exuberant and taking on huge piles of debt in order to join the never-ending boom - which has just seen Australia post a $20 Billion deficit - then get prepared for daily abuse from the 'everything is awesome!!' brigade.
Everything is about what is happening right now, and what is happening right now = what will happen in the future. Such is the mass redundant and idiotic thinking on display. We are now seeing an explosion in Skol-thought, with people showing up here to crow about how stocks are surging, bitcoin is destroying gold, property prices have no upper limits etc etc. The sheep / lemmings are pouring into the crypto trap, when cyberattacks have just shown how vulnerable this intangible 'money' is. Gold has reigned for thousands of years, crypto's have just turned up and on the the thinnest of evidence a whole plethora of muppets have declared that the triumph of Batcoin & Elysium is assured for all time. You couldn't make it up.
This morning on the TV news they told me that Macrons new PM is an unknown politician and represents Macrons desire to have key figures from both sides of the political divide in his government. So this guy is both unknown yet was a key figure. You couldn't make it up. We now may actually be under the control of a world government, things have gotten so weird.
