Book burning is very revisionist. Google, Facebook, and Twitter burn digital writings everyday because those writings contain truths that the left does not want to hear else they'll lose their grip on power.

What is wrong with the truth? The truth is wonderful and painful simultaneously, the truth helps the human spirit grow and learn, the truth encourages good behavior and discourages evil. I want to know when I'm truly wrong so I can learn from my mistakes.

News recap of first half 2020

Covid19 and many odds stuff - protest - riot - looting - bums taking over portion of cities - I speculate the market crash.*

The entire thing is built on perception. If/when society breaks down, none of that matters.

I am with ya on that. But it will take a long bumpy road for the market to get low enough for the general populace to figure that out.

Yeah.

- Market had recovered most of the loses YTD.
- Unemployment rate decreased
- people are getting over their covid fears
- People are starting to get bored with the protests
- people started living their lives again.
- Trump starts scheduling rallies again.

Things seemed a bit better.

---SO---

- media started headlining covid is coming back and deaths will double by September.
- Fed Powell announced that the economy is really BAD and jobs won't be coming back.

And...the market immediately took a nose dive.

They simply refuse to allow the system to recover and will continue to interfere until at least the election to keep things unstable.
