Tell that to the 40 million plus people that lost their jobs due to the fascist dictators across the country. Muh white coat coup.

Do you really think anybody cares about a couple of dozen people losing their job?

Dream on.

Being broke sucks but the real killer is being broke and in debt

First off, the hedge fund isn't even finished. From what I understand, this is a big hit but those shorts obviously weren't 100% of their assets. So they wouldn't even go out of business.

Secondly, lets say they did go under. None of the people working there suddenly lost their personal assets. None of them lost any of their 5 houses. And their reputation might be hurt a bit, but it's not like this 1 incredibly rare instance is something that would prevent them from getting another finance job instantly.

Meanwhile democrats take jobs from poor people who rely on their paycheck every 2 weeks to make ends meet. And not only that, the democrats are working to destroy the INDUSTRY, not just 1 business. It's not like you can just hop on over to another company in the industry, when they're actively hurting all the companies under the umbrella of the industry. Hence why these faggots said "learn to code" and then got butthurt when the journalism industry started sinking and we said it back

So there's really no comparison

No cocaine and hookers for a week or two....OH THE HUGE MANATEE!!!

Bet they are gonna cry when they hop out of their exotic Italian sports car, to jaunt over to their private jet, and fire off to their vacation villa in the French Riviera.

I think the Right AND the Left can AND SHOULD get behind investigating and trying these crooked fuckwhistles....but they won't. They will rig the game to bail our their buddies who kick down obscene amounts of cash to lobbies, special interests, and campaigns.

The one thing I can agree with the commies on -- oh, God, excuse me while I vomit after typing that statement -- is that there are some people who get rich as hell off of corruption and they should be kicked to the fucking curb without mercy.

So they wouldn't even go out of business.

Someone on wallstreetbets did the math and found out Melvin gets fully liquidated if the stock price stays above $175, and the other hedges are probably in a similar ballpark. (They) were really trying to tank it today and only managed to have it close at $195, down from almost $500 this morning. They’re completely, 100%, gigafucked. The only question is how they can minimize the damages

I absolutely agree with you, but I did want to expand on something.

Many people assume that people involved in a conspiracy only have one motivation, and often argue amongst each other on that singular motivation, when often times each side is right in some way. Large conspiracies usually happen because multiple people/parties all stand to gain from it. This Covid bullshit was pushed by lots of people, all with differing motivations.

One of the motivations for pushing Covid hysteria was that it enabled the economy to be controlled, for their benefit. Politicians gain because they get under the table bribes/money from big businesses pushing for a closed/controlled economy. The big businesses gain because the politicians then use the government and it's enforcers (police) to close small businesses, but keep big businesses open, forcing consumers to their stores. This in turn forces numerous small business closures (estimates from May 2020 was small business closure rates in some areas as high as 40%), preventing current and future competition to big businesses.

Most here have noticed that companies like Amazon have made a shit load of money during this, and that the police only enforced business closures on small businesses, even though it would've made more sense (if Covid hysteria was true) to close big businesses, spreading people out into smaller stores, rather than funneling us all into centralized stores/locations, increasing population density, exposure, and spread of Covid.

The globalists gain because it enables them to control people even more, since people that own and operate their own small business enables more freedom and choice than working for a big business that gets the labor and profits, forcing people to shop where they want us to, to buy what they want us to, and further increasing our destitution, increasing our reliance on them and their big corrupt governments and welfare.

Some are motivated purely by profits, while the globalists are truly evil, wanting to control everything about everyone, everything we do, if we're allowed, and even whether we live or die.

There is also no hard line where one fucker ends and the other fucker begins. Some of the politicians are globalists, and some of the big business people are globalists, meaning they gain in multiple ways.

I'm sure a lot of people here implicitly understand this, I just wanted to put it into words.
