It’s ridiculous they’re calling this “illegal” and “manipulation”. They’re just pissed the lower commoners got the money. Such bullshit.

This is probably the way to reform the system and give the hedgies a taste of their own medicine. Inclined to do this with the next round of stimulus.

The world will know that free men stood against a tyrant, that few stood against many, and before this battle is over, that even a god-king can bleed.

Of course it's bullshit. Has been since the 80's deregulation. The banks and the elite have been looting since then. It's legal for hedge funds to manipulate a companies stock, like with GME, but when non-Wall Street types play the game right back at them, oh no, that has to stop.

Plus, the money the WSB crowd will make off this is pennies compared to the bets the hedge funds had lined up on this. It's not the money the other side is making, it's the money they're losing.

The people on here praise Reagan quite a bit, but forget that he was the one chiefly responsible for deregulating the banks.

Yep. One of the most disastrous moves for the country, it led to everything else that's happened.

Where have you seen people here praising Reagan??

Not necessarily direct praise. Usually they'll talk about the similarities between Trump and Reagan, and sometimes praise the way Reagan dealt with rioters.

These people see money the same way ghetto thugs do. They think someone else getting rich means they personally get screwed. Crabs in a bucket with million dollar suits.

They regularly manipulate the masses on tv shows and news media. But heaven's forbid if a bunch of rejects decide to buy the same stock, that's the end of the world.
