It'll be interesting if they use this to take away even more of our freedoms in the mark of the beast administration.

lol the wrong people are making money and the wrong people are losing it. Can't let that happen. These hedge funds made a bet. They lost. As hard as they have tried to cheat, they still lost, and now the forces are working to dismantle WSB and the wider dumb money apparatus.

This country is a fucking joke. Capitalism for you and I, socialism for the powerful.

I'm so sad I didn't get into GME when I caught wind of this a few weeks ago. I assumed I was too late and had no idea it would grow into this once in a lifetime happening with reverberations throughout the entire market. I hope some of you made a lot of money on this.

The fact that we bailed out big banks and mortgage lenders in 2008-2009 when they purposefully tanked the economy, and now are going after internet meme lords for crushing them, well...

This is one of the worst examples of our corruption I can remember. 2008-2009 was worse, but this is just such a glaring example of it. Back then you could say “too big to fail” and there was a veneer of truth, as the entire world economy crashed. This time, they speculated and lost BIGLY. If they try and hold individual retail traders responsible for this, which, as far as I can tell is the buying and selling of property, that would be a violation of everything our system is supposed to stand for. Companies literally pay Robinhood for information on the volume of their stock trades, so as to short stocks. That shit is legal but a Reddit board organizing is going to be considered “insider trading,” or some other specious bull shit?

SAD!

I would not be happy to be Gamestop upper management (unless you are dumping), their stock is going to crash and burn like the Hindenburg, it might actually be the straw that breaks the camels back and they go the way of Blockbuster.
It’s worse for Nokia

Nokia is going to become the largest corporation in Finland because of Reddit, and that will hurt the entire Finnish nation

I sold @7.54 and bought at $2.79. I should’ve held but I am a very conservative investor

Robinhood blocking GME buys not sales. Charles Schwabb too. Blatant market manipulation. Really outrageous shit. Fidelity looks to work, FYI.

I didn't get in on this, going to scope it out another day or two before I get in perhaps AMC depending on how the wind's blowin. We could be early in the momentum if they don't find a way to squash this.

This is incredible - now only OTHER institutional investors get to take part in the feeding frenzy. What is going to be the fallout from this? I would be seriously afraid if I was working at Robinhood right now.

Of course a company called Robinhood would be behind one of the largest transfers of wealth from rich to poor that has ever happened in the history of the world.

This is too much

Lune. This is what they voted for, and continue to vote for every day that they wake up with consumerism and vapid materialism in their hearts.

This is the world the materialist jew has created. Universally willed by mercantilism. If you'd like to protest, buy (((this product))), but know that taking action will cost you 15$/hour that you could've otherwise been workin' and earnin'.

Alternately, you can adopt (((this view))), and we will all "work together" to make sure you get a little more consumerism and vapid materialism apportioned to you.

How satiable is the ego?
