Is this a normal sign of economic contraction

I feel like most or at least many of us can agree this Iran war never should have happened. I have been fairly consistent on that matter. Now mind you, it appears that many who have shared that sentiment, also agreed that ending the war ASAP would be preferential for all parties. The POTUS realized after week 1 the terrible mistake he had made IMO, but ego and whatnot, you know? I think it best we focus on the positives that the primary energy corridor of the world is back in business.

Regarding the price of brent, which continues to fluctuate, this $5-$10 is a fairly standard window of fluctuation even during peaceful stable market conditions, and focusing on that difference seems a bit of petty reaching for anything to continue the criticisms. But regarding the war itself, terrible stupid and unwise decision. Now its ending, and yes there is price stabilization happening. Can we just be happy that the war we all hated is coming to an end and fuel prices are stabilizing? We should be happy in that while at the same time being able to be critical of the war in the first place. But it seems focusing on this little range is a bit disingenuous, as that price difference is actually pretty natural from the Winter months of January to the Summer months where the blends change. The news typically runs segments annually in many local markets covering that difference every year when discussing the holiday travelling months during summer.

The news media also covers such regular  and standard price increases for Holidays like Thanksgiving, Christmas, Labor Day, Memorial or any holiday that will add to overall travels and typically increased fuel consumption.

Ant let us also be honest, that the 6.1% GDP you are citing in Biden's year one is not due to his awesome policies. It is the fact that a massive globalist plot, and the New York Times all but admitted the conspiracy when it ran an article mocking the claim and agreeing so many institutions and foreign assistance in fact were party to these efforts after the election coup of 2020, demanded our economy be shut down. That same anti-Trump establishment ensured the complete shutdown of the United States economy for the entirety of 2020. By the same threats of the fascists who demanded we all take poisoned genetic manipulation shots in order to continue our right to work an earn a living the following years. And virtually everyone who voted in that flavor was rabidly foaming at the mouth, demanding death to non-compliant resistors of this foreign conspiracy and plot. Wishing for death upon our families for not just shutting down their thinking brain and blindly accepting the lies which are continuing to be exposed in courts and government document dumps.

If you shut down all economic activity, and then suddenly reopen the following year you will see a drastic climb in GDP, because it went negative due to the conspiratorial efforts of the foreign plot the year prior. The really irritating thing is the dishonesty when trying to justify policies of the fascist enforcers who threatened everyone's physical lives and sources of income openly and gleefully with STATE POWER citing this GDP gain.

Why, some of those cheerleaders of the persecution of the non-compliant are with us in this very thread. There was no science to follow, because the science was being silenced and filled with a massive propaganda arm of buzz words and sound bytes that also expected to just be able to freely create a NAZI/Soviet-like Ministry of Truth and control any form of speech contrary to this globalist terrorist operation.

It is important that when sincerely criticizing current actions with attempts to use the past to rationalize something, that we are honest  about EVERYTHING from that time, including the fact that everything the opposition claimed about the dangers of liberty by Trump and supporters, hindsight shows us it was all pure projection as they were the ones who actually enforced all the fascist behaviors they attempted to project onto Trump. And then the massive attempt to coerce the media and social media companies to gaslight the whole world, that was certainly dispicable.

The GOP however, does not get off for their blind rabid support of Israel. Frankly, I find such blind support for a society that riots to protect the rights of guards and soldiers to rape inmates reprehensible. I find the blind support of a society who considers themselves to be superior humans to the rest of the world as part of their core tenant of spiritual faith based on the books they choose to follow downright ignorant and self defeating.

This war finally closing is a good thing. The irony is the criticism of some bad deal, as if nothing short of absolute genocide and the complete takeover of an ancient civilization at the cost of potentially hundreds of thousands of lives and a ruined world from global escalation would be the only acceptable outcome, despite those same critics literally railing against such actions in order to win.

This is how the opposition narrative is being spoken from both sides of the mouth right now: "How dare Trump attack Iran! Save Iran! Trump is evil for posting genocidal threats openly to this civilization for resource domination!! OMG how dare Trump make peace with Iran without somehow completely dominating the civilization and taking their resources! This is a bad deal! Keep bombing Iran with genocidal intent for resource domination so the deal is not a bad deal but how evil Trump should never have went to war but ending the war without complete domination and resources is also bad!!"

Like, WTF? This is the most schizophrenic line of criticisms possible, and regular people are seeing it exactly that way. I am very hopeful the war is coming to an end, but have also expressed my doubts and why in that thread. I would rather focus my energy towards all positive outcomes, and efforts in that direction. It seems like holding on to bitter hatred of one man and downplaying any efforts to fix a mistake is just eating peoples souls up. The energy is being directed against ourselves when we behave and think this way, not the targets of our angst.

I look forward to stability, and hopefully being able to capitalize and invest into Iranian and Middle East market overall going into the future. I won't allow my anger at the initial act to consume me and make me deliriously unable to move forward because of one man, latching on to any criticism I can. it is not good for the soul, any anyone can choose to vibrate on a higher frequency and dismiss the demons that seek to drive a wedge between our internal peace.

I am hoping things continue to move towards a peaceful resolution for global stability whether that means we only get a little something vs complete domination and regardless of the critics who only seek to criticize with no solutions. Yet, I remain vigilante. Nothing is ever certain.

I just, I don't understand why I am unable to make short concise  posts. I just start writing, and suddenly I realize there is an entire volume here. WTF is wrong with me?
