      You mean the date that people on Twitter keep throwing around? I’ve yet to see a credible source back this claim up.

          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.

          Yet there aren’t any sources backing whatever this “article” claims either.

          Edit: The source’s source…

          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.

        The 50 year agreement between the US and Saudi Arabia to only trade oil in USD is coming to an end. After June 9 SA can trade oil in any currency

            No but it is the first step. If countries no longer have to purchase oil from OPEC in US dollars and they’re able to use their own local currency to purchase oil, that will be the end of the US dollar being the world’s reserve currency. The petrol dollar has had a stranglehold on other countries for decades because it required them to purchase oil that they needed in US Dollars.
