Threadguy on inflation fatigue and Polymarket
Threadguy breaks down why inflation fatigue has set in. He says, “Everyone has completely given up on inflation, we don’t care.” According to him, only about 1% of the world doesn’t even check prices anymore, while the other 99% couldn’t afford things before and certainly can’t now. He wraps up by pointing to a Polymarket page showing a bet on how high inflation will get in 2026, with a $36,983 cash balance visible.

Everybody has completely given up on the inflation thing. Like full blown, mailed it in. Everything costs everything and we don't even care. Basically, the way that I think this goes is there's 1% of the world that swipes regardless, doesn't give a fuck. They don't even look. And the rest of the 99% could barely afford before and they definitely can't afford now. But they can't afford because they just buy now, pay later on Klarna on debt that's never getting paid back.
