It ALWAYS is with a certain type of person. “I have unquestionably wronged and harmed you. Naturally, the burden is on you, the person I have wronged with my thoughtlessness and outright malice, to come up with the grace and compassion to help me move past the guilt I am performing (which I pinky swear is real and not…

From the other* side:

“As you are all no doubt aware, my lifetime passions are sedition, coups, unchecked insane conspiracy theories, murdering hundreds of thousands of Americans through negligence, conspiring with hostile foreign governments, withholding aid to allies for political gain, and inappropriate incestuous comments. So, I’m sure…

I would ask those of you on the contrary side to have grace and mercy on those on my side of the polarized world

It is true that this is all once group of parasites fighting another group of parasites.

It was never about the little guy, something I tried to tell my friends who aren’t at all well versed in the market.

Easy proof? The guy who started the initial thread literally works in the financial services industry as a wealth manager, and had around $750k of his own money invested in Gamestop and recently…

Gaetz has the most punchable face in Congress. He’s also deeply stupid and devoid of charisma. I’m not saying we won’t have to deal with him for years to come, but I can’t see him going farther than living easy in his safe Florida House district. He also has skeletons. Not that Trump didn’t share many of these…

Half the problem is conservative laziness and lust for power. Instead of admitting the reality of climate change and figuring out what a conservative approach to mitigation looks like, they found it easier to sell the message that it was all made up. That way they didn’t have to tell these people their lives were…

Former Wyoming voter here, for over 20 years.  Wyoming voters are the stupidest fucking people you will ever meet.  Like, think about how stupid Trumpers are.  Most of these people are like, twice this stupid.

Though the Greene lunatic has been capturing attention lately, Gaetz will be the future face of Trumpism. That’s because he’s all the things Trump is/was. While he sits here and calls out establishment republicans for being out of touch, corrupt dynasties (which is fair criticism of the entire establishment), just…

The hedge funds were actively participating on bankrupting businesses. Gamestop was going down, sure. But the short sellers were definitely agitating it further. Taking advantage of failure is appalling. And the fact that when Reddit tried to take advantage of the system, the rich assholes went and blocked them every…

I feel you on the last part. The hedge funds that shorted in the first place are only victims in the literal sense but certainly not in the justice sense, and I’d emphatically not want to portray them as innocent here. They were doing much more unambiguous illegal shit, so fuck ‘em.

I’m not singling you out Wraith, we agree often, but people in general really need to stop this proletariat v bourgeois narrative because it’s bullshit. This is rich v rich, nothing more than that. I get that it’s appealing to the non-rich to want to fuck over the rich, but the rich aren’t the losers here, the low…

It was absolutely a pump and dump. “Screw over the hedge fund” was the bait used to drag unwitting participants into the pump, and the instigator already dumped on day two when the share price dropped more than half in a flash. And a reminder, pump and dump bait doesn’t have to be deceptive to be considered market…

Reminds me of a similar move when the DNC brought on John Kasich as an honored speaker in 2020. You know, John Kasich? The most anti-abortion Conservative governor of Ohio who successfully closed almost every clinic in the state? To come speak at the DNC? Who used his speech to—and I’m not making this up—literally…

“Billionaire Mark Cuban took to a Reddit AMA earlier today to egg the day-traders puffing up GameStop and other meme stocks.”

This right here.

We wouldn’t have these issues if we had an actual national plan and procedure to inject everyone in the country.  

Yeah, that’s how I’m seeing it. If the choice is somebody, anybody, getting the vaccine by chance or it’s garbage...use that shit. The more people getting vaccinated, the better. Obviously, assholes using money\connections for preferential treatment should be put in stocks in the public square and pelted with animal…

Happenstance is different than active planning. Your friend of a friend’s friend didn’t plan on getting the shot, they just happened to be there at the right time and if they didn’t get the shot it probably would have gone to waste. Better somebody get it rather than it being trashed. There’s no moral question there.…
