If you find you’re wondering why all of the troops are still in DC look no further than this post.

Hour by hour it’s all becoming more and more clear. What a fucking spicy timeline!!

Everyone knows (or should) why they set the clock to tomorrow for preventing buys. But forcibly selling shares? What. The. Fuck?

Robinhood (and anyone else that does this) just lost a metric fuck-ton of customers; on top of that, I bet lawyers everywhere are sharpening their knives and pre-positioning filings for obscene amounts of class-action money.

Man... I'm not impacted by this, but I genuinely feel bad for those who are. That's some next-level assholery going on right there (and possibly illegal?)

It's EXTREMELY illegal. (Not that anyone with the power to do anything about it cares, since it benefits the elites and hurts the proles)

I’m not surprised. Do you remember the time when this same company had an incident where their app “froze” for like 12 hours and people couldn’t sell anything? People lost hundreds of thousands of dollars......

I remember that... nothing is a coincidence. Some rich scumbags likely stole billions from retail investors during that.

There should be exactly zero people using Robinhood left by the end of the day.

conservativeyuppie 35 points ago +35 / -0

No, if you currently have GME, hold the line and don't sell. People selling is exactly what they want. Delete robinhood after that.

Edited to add that if you were to transfer from robinhood to another broker like Fidelity, robinhood will charge $75 for the transfer. Don't let them have that money.

$75 beats losing your shares to the funds they're trying to bail out.

SuddenlyClintoned 4 points ago +4 / -0

You also can't access your options for a time after. And this is a short squeeze, not a long-term.

Transfer your long terms. Don't fuck with the GME/BB/AMC/NOK w/e

You can do whatever you want if you are part of the elite. It’s really incredible to see in real time. There are no laws or rules for the elite, and the little people have nobody in their corner to protect what is left of their Constitutional rights.

Previously I would have recommended guiliani but apparently he's taking some time off to spend time with his bartender and to sell cigars. He's been doing that for the last 6 months too but this time he's not getting paid the boatload of money.

Exactly. I shorted all the cruise lines during the 09 crisis, they went up a bit. I held knowing what was coming. What I didn't see coming was wall street forcing me to cover at the peak claiming there were no shares available to short, closing my position at a loss, only to watch all the stocks take epic shits for the next week's/months as wall street shorted them down to dust. It's rigged.

RIGGED

Terminate service from Robinhood. Your stonks should still be holding afterwards, I would imagine, since you no longer go through them. That’s just my first thought. Idk if that’s possible but may be worth looking into.

Did you get your full amount of money back or did you lose $75 on a transfer fee?

The Democrat Owning Billionaires MUST be protected. They are THE KINGS OF THE WORLD, after all. What do you think they have spending hundreds of millions buying Democrats for?? Robinhood's biggest customer is Citadel, owned by Ken Griffin and Steve Cohen, the two huge Billionaires that could be utterly bankrupted by this.

Can a Broker Sell Your Stocks Without Permission? https://www.investopedia.com/ask/answers/03/091903.asp

RobinHood has violated SEC regulations before: In December, Robinhood agreed to pay $65 million to settle Securities and Exchange Commission charges that it did not execute trades at the best prices for its customers because of agreements to send its order flows to certain firms.

Robinhood sold out. Welcome to the machine.

When you see someone with a home a bit better than average, now know how hard it is to move up one leg of the ladder. The machine keeps you down if it can.

Doesn't matter if you win, just get the suit going so they have to defend their blatantly illegal action in court, and show their full hand of hypocrisy to the pedes who still aren't awake.

This should be a lesson to everyone to never trade stocks via an app. That being said I would love to see what Trump would have done to a company selling users stocks against their will “for their own good” This scum hates the idea that normal Americans can get rich and join their “exclusive club”.

They don't even have to follow through with this. They can just float the idea which will probably scare plenty of people into selling.
