Of course a lot of people will be stuck with the losses. But the intent is that each person might lose a few hundred dollars, but the higher it gets, the more the shorters lose. Not all of them sold, some are just holding out hoping for the crash, but eventually they'll have to pay for those borrowed stocks at some point, and that's when they get royally screwed. The masses lose a bit in the end, but the real criminals lose a LOT. And it's clear there's a lot of people out there that are willing to lose a few hundred bucks to stick it to short sellers.

They want it to go as high as $5,000 a share, which would destroy these short sellers. Imagine buying millions of dollars worth of shares at $20 and it goes up to $5000 a share and you have to pay that difference. Even $300 a share is a massive loss, but $5,000 is even more devastating.

And it's pretty devastating already, because not all short sellers use their own money, but also borrowed money. Those require a maintenance requirement of 25%, and going below that makes you subject to a margin call, which effectively means they have to put more money in the higher the stock price gets. That alone can bankrupt hedge funds because they can reach a point where they literally have no way of fulfilling that maintenance requirement. They can liquidate their position and lose big, or try to weather the storm and hope it drops back down.

But short selling also has a specified time limit on the borrow, and when that time limit is up....oops, you're stuck having to pay what that stock is worth, and if you can't pay, well you essentially become liquidated and have to declare bankruptcy.
