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

[Michael Wade]

God's in his heaven and all is right in the world.

Yes I have been thanking god for this little miracle. Even if this leads to nothing, its raising awareness and giving people incentive to actually learn and utilize stocks.

 

[Exbein]

Sounds great. People are going to love hearing Biden blame Trump for years on end and offer no solutions.

worked well with Obama blaming Bush

Because telling people what to do with their money in this situation can contribute to speculations of "market manipulation", which is straight up illegal and has been for decades before WSB.

"I will make it legal"

Something being illegal doesn't really matter if no court on the planet will actually take your case. What if the rot is so deep that even doing something hilariously illegal in broad daylight has no consequences for these people because no one in their right mind will prosecute?

How is it telling them what to do with their money when it's a suggestion? This isn't some backroom collaborative deal, it's some jackass screaming "BUY BUY HOLD!" in public. If a homeless man were to scream "BUY GME AND HOLD IT!", and people did, would that be illegal?

No. Again, not that it matters. This whole conversation hinges on the idea that they'd get a fair trial, which if this does end up with the govt. trying to cudgel them to make some examples they certainly won't be given one. Just like this wasn't about money (and really, not even "sticking it to the man" so much as hilarity, which is a righteous cause in and of itself I suppose), what comes next won't be about "justice" or "the little guy" or anything like that. It'll be about cold revenge and trying to scare the populace.

None of this matters past this point, what matters is what happens next and what happens after that. Not really the minutiae.

So if/when WSB gets their payout, what's stopping them from just taking the money and running?

This is when things will get really juicy because I can imagine when people try to cash out en masse the answer will be along the lines of "sorry goyim, no money here!"

She's cut from the same cloth as Bernanke, Krugman, and all the other graduates of the Robert Mugabe School of Economics.

I'm not saying money printers won't go brr, but even the crash and subsequent bailouts in 2007-2009 didn't come when the economy was already in shambles, with an ongoing pandemic, and a highly polarized and fractured government.

Don't get me wrong, I have my popcorn ready for if that happens, but there were lessons learned from 2008, even if it's only for political posturing.

The Tree of Liberty hasn't feasted upon noble blood in quite some time.

Let them do flips from their penthouses!!

 

[Bosmadden]

There's a difference between having people in positions of affluence and power in society, and letting them have utter control over the peons.

One is a system that serves citizenry. The other is a system that dictates commands to subjects.

It's usually a positive if you have a ruling class that are the countrymen of the people they rule.

They tend to have a little more empathy for the ordinary folk.

I read a great tweet about the British casualty rate in WW1. The elites actually suffered more war dead than the masses, as it should be.

Can you imagine the bunch of roaming foreigners who control this nation sending their children to die in the wars they start? Ha!

I give Biden credit for sending his son off to serve. If he wasn't such an ancient dementia patient it would give me hope that his Presidency would actually be a good thing for the nation.

But as he's not actually in charge of shit it's a moot point.

It did. Most of my left-leaning friends still think Obama was the greatest president in US history.

 

[Hot Dog]

This is hilarious. Who would have thought reddit of all places would pull something like this off. Power to the players!

Society was more functional then, and Obama was a hundred times more charismatic.

 

[Meat Target]

That won't work for much longer. This definitely broke the conditioning on quite a few anti-Trump/anti-right wing people. It'll keep happening the more they get fucked with and in turn respond with iron-fisted countermeasures. Like one guy said earlier in the thread, this is just the next pressure valve in society being shut before our eyes, and when all of them are closed...

I genuinely think someone big, famous, and important will be assassinated this year. For any Glowies watching, I know not who, where, or when, but there is only so much gaslighting, plunder, silencing, ratfucking, andostracizing you can get away with before regular people blow their stacks.

Well, when the rest of the Constitution fails, people may become tempted to plead the Second Amendment...

what can you expect from 4chan? it has been pozzed since gamergate and 8chan went down under. this shit used to start from 4chan

I'm thinking a mob that'll make the 6th look like a lost tourist group. Probably both, since it's still only fucking January

This is my second favorite thing about this (the first being hedge funds getting fucked into the dirt). Everyone's mask is coming off. You have fat asses in cow suits going on Fox News and calling for social media to censor people, you have a trading app named Robin Hood forcibly selling their customers' stocks without their consent, you have ANTIFAgs who'd normally be cooming over the idea of the rich and powerful capitalists being taken down a notch defending them, and now you have the fake Indian sticking her neck out to protect an industry she promised to regulate when she ran for office.

Truly the masks are coming off.

On one hand, fuck hedgies, on the other hand they're playing with everyone's money (well at least anyone who owns a mutual fund) so I can see why the managerial class is incensed by this. They probably see it like torching the house you're in because your landlord is an asshole.

Says our population will decrease to 99 million by 2025. Go to the link and hover over the figures to see the percentage decrease. I initially thought this meant that we'd be less 99 million people in 2025, but I was wrong.

 

[mr.moon1488]

What's going to be really funny is if the hedge funds try to short GME again once this dies down a bit, and then get hit again.
