WallStreetBets did nothing wrong.

There is no question that the Financial Establishment is your fucking enemy.

They want you broke, they want homeless, they want your wife dead, and your children raped; and they think it's funny. They also own your mortgage, pension, bank account, and credit card. Killing you is only a waste because they want all the income you will ever make in your life to pay of their financial instruments. Make no mistake. The Establishment Journos are running defense of the Institutional Investors, and those Institutional Investors are going to want to keep this kind of thing from ever happening again. Expect hyperbolic claims of cyber-terrorism being directed at Reddit. Also expect that the government will try to pass legislation to either:

  • a) ban retail investors from making purchases at times of their choosing
  • b) censor forums so they can't talk about making investment purchases
  • c) both.

TD Ameritrade is restricting the short sales on GameSpot and AMC. Further attacks are likely to follow. There is no level that the Establishment will not stoop to. Remember, Social Justice is merely a weapon that these people use.

Talk to your friends and family and pass along the information to resist this bullshit and refuse to accept the victim mentality of the most powerful people on Earth.

Here's some additional sources from Alt Media:

  • Louis Rossmann: Gamestop shorts are FULL OF ? about closing their short position (in my opinion)
  • Louis Rossmann: Gamestop shorts lose BILLIONS, get $2 billion bailout; AND KEEP SHORTING ANYWAY!
  • Louis Rossmann: Why mainstream media's slander of wallstreetbets pisses me off regarding GME.
  • Lotus Eaters Podcast: The Great Game Stock
  • Tim Pool: Wall Street in Panic Mode on Gamestop and AMC Halted as Plebs Nuke Elite's Hedge Funds

The guy can declare bankruptcy and be back at it in 1 month.

Citadel is rumored to be front-running Robinhood app trades, so they'll be making money off r/wsb autists with botted high-speed trading anyway.

Wall St literally can't lose. Don't know why they're so mad.

Imagine a peasant wrestling a sabre out of a noble's hand in front of other nobles. It doesn't matter how insignificant it is, a prole rose above his station and got better off because of it. If they could make it so, heads would be rolling now.

The exchange as a whole has "circuit breakers" which will stop trading if the market drops a certain amount in a day. I wouldn't be surprised if the platforms institute something like that on GME and AMC once people start selling and the price starts to go down.

Yeah, whenever it starts to drop there's going to be a panic of sellers trying to get out.

I haven't looked at the Reddit in question, but I'd be willing to bet they aren't making sound financial decisions themselves. I suspect there's a lot of people on that side way over leveraged and way too greedy to take profits and instead throwing more money they don't have into more shares.

Most of these people aren't trying to make money. They're sending a message. They're announcing to the whole world that brazen market manipulation is now for everyone, and the elites can't stop them without revealing to everyone just how rigged the game truly is.

Hey, we're off the charts in terms of the U.S. economy. We're on the part of the map that says, "here, there be dragons."

The people playing this game aren't doing anything that the big brains in U.S. government and the Federal Reserve haven't already done at a much larger scale.

r/wsb is literally a meme sub where people go yolo thousands of dollars to -500%.

One guy glitched the Robinhood app to turn $2000 into -$50,000 box calls and the app admins had to ban the technique hours later.

So Robinhood were pretty salty on the sub. Then the wsb mods banned the Robinhood official account. Kek.

It's not serious investing in the slightest.

From what I've seen even when they do things that are "sound" they crank them up to 11 so that if something goes wrong it becomes a bloodbath.

Back in March there was a guy who got a $275k margin call for leveraging a 55/45 UPRO/TMF portfolio (which itself consists of triple-leveraged funds). Because something that wasn't supposed to happen -- the S&P 500 and long-term Treasuries both being down simultaneously -- happened.

Meanwhile if you just held on to that portfolio unleveraged you did pretty well for yourself last year.

Anyone buying now on the hype is going to get burned and get burned hard in the long run because gamestop is probably going to plummet to below its december price of 10 dollars once this is all said and done and the panic selling ensues.
