GameStop, AMC, Blackberry for examples. Do you approve of This trading practice of Redditors/memers pumping price?

Our civilization needs strong reform fast or it's doomed. It's clear the Reaganomics of the Baby Boomer generations do not create a society that can last. There are barbarians at every gate. Some like the Capitol Rioters are HPs and vanguards for fascism.

Others like $GME traders are chaotic neutral on balance, attacking an institution like one takes a hammer to a rotten apple. They see that the system is failing long term and has been for a while, and see opportunity. Some may see themselves as fighting for a just cause, others on the outside seem them as HPs, but what they are is a horde of morally neutral Barbarians seeing opportunity from decadence and taking it with both hands.

Frankly, the world is overstocked with memes.

The GameStop traders are true heroes. Nobody should complain about them actually using the free market for what it's truly intended for. It's not a free market if the rich rig the rules to build up even more barriers to wealth which is what causes a ton of problems with the decline of pur society.

A bit of a meme itself. Any in depth analysis would show that these stocks can't be pumped solely by bored Redditors. What's going on is "dueling" hedge funds.

Is this really fundamentally different from what normally happens with stocks only it's not guys in suits this time. This is basically a ponzi scheme since Gamestop and whatever else they're buying will eventually come crashing down again but no one's making you buy it and get taken.

Yeah, they're delivering on finally exposing how disconnected the stock market is from the average person's interaction with the economy. It's been a surprisingly positive development for society.

I'm just happy that I benefited from idiots who bought AMCX instead of the AMC they were hoping to benefit from squeezing.
