/r/wsb autists taking on a wallstreet hedgefund. Elon musk involved as always / wallstreetbets / gamestop - Gamergate 2: financial boogaloo

But for a brief moment, the noble on the horse gets mowed down and that's when the game of musical chairs favors the peasant.
I hadn't thought about it like that.

You believe the modern man has the ability to even recognize his chains much less cast them off given the opportunity?

every time in history I have seen the "peasants" with the ball in their court they fumble the bag hard, usually for selfish short term self gain
 
If Crowbcat resurrected from the dead, does that mean Mister Metokur will come back too?
there is another who has already returned

401k's are meant to grow long term until you retire anyway (you usually get slapped with extra taxes if you withdraw early or aren't experiencing some emergency hardship, though I think they've temporarily lifted it because of 'rona), so if you happen to contribute during a crash just think of it as buying stuff at a large discount. You'll generally eventually recoup the losses all back anyway, but now with more stonks.
Good to know, like I said just started one and know absolute jack about them. still a bit uncertain about contributing during a crash since it seems like a bit of a gamble whether or not a stock will recover or go under. Worse comes to worst I guess I can always bitch out and go with mostly bonds and stable value funds
 
To think if this have happened a decade earlier, we could have been spared a lot of grief. As in, wall street getting fucked before they could start promoting woke shit.
Wokeness was partly a reaction to people becoming more aware of Wall Streets shenanigans. Kind of why they're trying to frame these people is Nazis.
 
Sure, but it’s not as if hedge funds don’t get into bad position as and lose money on their own too. Celebrating over shit like this is what keeps people so complacent. They do very little then pat each other on the back before returning to letting the rest of the hedge funds etc pound their bussy. As Josh has argued more than once on his show, people are just too comfortable with their convenient lives to seriously attempt to change things—and if anything, people profiting off this just compounds that complacency even more. Maybe I’m just the most blackoilled man here, but that’s my thoughts. Thanks for reading my diary.
But I agree it’s funny as hell to watch Melvin get fucked for a while.
Except we also have a case in our lifetimes of a hedge fund failure causing a global financial crisis, and naked shorts are a very common tool that are very easy to rig against
