I find these takes truly bizarre. Your basic assumption is that the future is predictable and there's a group of powerful, but incompetent people controlling it.
Central Banks' mandate is to control inflation while still ensuring employment is healthy. They can try and model and predict the future as much as they want, and they can tell you what they're thinking at any point in time, but this is fundamentally not something that anyone can do. So the line became "The fed promised us they wouldn't raise rates, but then they did, so my shitty risk management is their fault, not my fault". No, it's your fault, because the Fed's job isn't to make pronouncements and stick to them regardless of reality, it's to keep inflation and employment at healthy levels.
So the Fed did its job. Inflation is being brought under control without a recession or a hit to employment which so far is quite remarkable. If they continue this for another year or two and bring the situation completely under control it'll actually be a historic achievement.
I am not arguing that they failed at predicting the future: they failed at managing expectations.
I am suggesting that the Fed should have not be authoritative on these topics since obviously they have no clue. Only recently they tried to tone it down a little by asserting they are a "data-dependent" and even then, they are still authoritatively making assumptions every week on things they have no clue about.
Again, dig into your own premise. You can't set and manage expectations about a future you cannot predict. You can set expectations about your behaviour given a certain situation (ie, if kid misbehaves, then no video). You cannot set expectations about the economy, because the economy is a complex and unpredictable system.
This is the reason that while companies can issue guidance and forecasts in their quarterly reports, they come with pages of disclaimers. You've essentially taken the equivalent of those forecasts at face value, ignored the disclaimers and are angry your trades didn't work out. You can blame other people all you want, but your ideas are just weird.
