The last time socialists tried to ally with fascists against oligarchs they got a long knife straight up their ass. I don't blame them.
Also alt-righters only hate capitalism because the (((wrong))) people make money off of it. When's the last time you saw one bitch about Warren Buffett or Jerry Jones?
 
i literally saw someone from my high school crying on facebook about how if wall street goes down so does disney and that meant marvel and star wars too.

...keep in mind, this is a guy that has done nothing but bitch about how awful star wars has been since disney bought it.

some of these people are just too far gone to be saved, i swear.
 
Apparently an actual Vice reporter tried to pop into /pol/ to do a QA about what their involvement in this right now and it rapidly turned into 2008 /b/

ancient power is awakening

AVE MERCURIUS!!!

Fuck Wall Street, fuck the Federal Government, fuck Silicon Valley, and fuck their media lapdogs! Class War Now!

(in Street Fighter II)


If life has taught me anything, there is always a way out for these assholes.

Nobody got punished for 2008 except 1-2 token sacrifices.

It would not shock me tomorrow if we find out the hedge funds got saved and or bailed-out somehow. But today, we gladly lap up their tears.

I'm fully expecting that. Nothing good ever happens and the Woke Left and their corporate overlords always win.

Unless this really is some ancient awakening and Mercury's gamers and autists somehow do get one over on Mammon's merchants against all the odds come Friday.

I'm not optimistic though.
 
THEY’RE DOING IT BOIS!

Someone on either this thread or another said Schwab was still accepting buys (and sells) on GME. I have NO idea if that's true, though. And that info was posted several hours ago.
I bought 1 GME on Schwab earlier. They've had a few errors throughout the day but they haven't outright blocked trades like Robinhood, afaik.

Reactions: awoo
There's some reddit disinfo shill claiming this could sink Robinhood, don't believe the lies, the parent company of Robinhood, BlackRock is worth well over 8 trillion dollars.
Robinhood only survives by the hand of the corporate interests battling against the honest investors.
MAKE EM BLEED!

Alright, first time you do it, benefit of the doubt, but this is twice now you've posted stupid shit about BlackRock and their holdings, and as far as I can tell this lie comes from you specifically, not some random 4chan post (that totally isn't you).
Not only is BlackRock not Robinhood's "parent company," BlackRock is a client of Robinhood, and only just recently. BlackRock took advantage of Robinhood's free stocks offer to collect over a billion dollars revenue, losing Robinhood a tremendous amount of money, even as they BlackRock moved their internal trading onto the service. That's right: Robinhood has probably paid BlackRock more money to use their services, than BlackRock ever will pay back in commissions. It's like if you went to a fast food place with nothing but free burger vouchers with "any order," ordered free water, and the store accepted it.
Which is perfectly legal, because as it happens if you make dumb promotion and don't cap it properly, you can't just not pay it out when someone smart decides to take advantage.
You're railing against the bigger fish that is eating the people you don't like (Melvin Capital and Robinhood) alive. They are not in any way hurt by these market actions. If ebil jooz BlackRock touched you as a child, this is a poor way to get revenge... ignoring the fact that BlackRock going down would ruin hundreds of thousands of US citizens' lives, because it's not a hedge fund, it's a mutual and asset management firm that has hedge funds.
 
Trading stocks is part of a public business; if people are interfering with that, blocking sales, etc., then Gamestop should just sell directly. Go to Gamestop, get a PS5 and 2 shares. (I know the stocks aren't in their hands, it would just be funny to watch if they somehow circumvented the roadblocks).
Unironically, if GameStop started selling stocks with old fashioned paper stock certificates in their stores, they would make so much money right now it would justify the valuation.
