Conventional economists spinning deflation as “almost always bad” has always felt like pro-corporate voodoo bullshit to me. Especially when the inflation that proceeded it was driven by boardroom greed and pathological profit-seeking.
I’m not saying deflation is always good. But right now it would likely just be a correction back to the usual Reaganomics greed instead of the post-pandemic let’s-burn-it-all-down levels of greed.

I think most things economists say is pro-corporate voodoo bullshit. It’s a social science, they’re the priests of the ruling class.
Well said. “Just ETF harder, bro!”
