If this is true and so many are exposed then it will be argued that the government stepping in, robinhood forcing sales is a good thing because they are preventing a coming crash.

So I think this explanation backfires on them because it will be easy to convince the public that the Biden admin is preventing a crash and thus saving everyone from a recession being caused by reddit plebs.

Really a recession bc of one companies stocks? if our system is that fragile that fucking with one single stock's price will cause it to collapse then maybe it should collapse. At a minimum it will make those rich fuckers pay for picking who won this election with their wallets.

The whole system isn't fragile. Companies that make real goods and provide real services are still worth something, because they create real value.

It's only the investment banks which are in danger of being totally destroyed. This is a good thing, because fundamentally investment banks are parasites that only exist to steal other people's money.

Main street vs wall street.

Biden is paid by wall street so no guesses which will be destroyed in the next four years. Notice covid only hurts main street.

After a full year of the government ensuring as many average Americans failed with their destructive lockdowns while politicians pinched pennies except when it came to foreign aid -- will "too big to fail" lie work twice? Doubt it.

Of course it will work, who will tell them differently?
