      Your article is written by someone who has a vested interest in the price of silver. Your 20 “proofs” are a list of opinions from the author, often with one sentence being broken out into multiple “reasons” in order to make the list look even longer. I think I’ll pass on the idea of him being an impartial, reliable and/or accurate source of information, thank you.

      Seriously,

      1. Joe Biden still pounds the table “that the economy has never been stronger”
      1. Indeed, there are decades when nothing happens and then hours when decades happen.

      These aren’t “proof” of anything.

          The italics were almost enough to show the sarcasm. A true believer would’ve used THIS TO SHOW THEIR EMPHASIS.

      I think this is a sarcastic post so I’m going to up vote it.

      It does however seem like something a tankie would believe without questioning and then spread like gospel, so I’m conflicted.

        In this day and age, any posts not clearly labelled as sarcastic should not be treated as such. There are plenty of people out there who, as you said, would believe it without question and spread it like gospel. Unfortunately, there are enough of them where you can’t give them the benefit of the doubt any more. There absolutely are people who would read and disseminate it and turn it into the next big conspiracy theory that somehow Joe Biden would be held responsible for because of his relationship with Genghis Kahn. Or something.
