      Good. Make the SEC and the Fed look people in the eye and tell them they're no longer allowed to trade in the stock market to "protect boomer's retirement funds" (read: Because the investment firms don't want competition in their Rich Peoples' Feelings Graph money printer). Make them heighten the contradictions, then slide in and start radicalizing when the backlash starts.

        this is a bad take because these WSB fools wouldn't have been allowed to do this five years ago, it's only because more people have direct access to the market through robinhood and zero commissions trading

        secondly, when this "collapses" it just means a bunch of working folk are going to blame themselves for losing money to the hedge funds

      Maybe not this exactly but this isn't the first time the internet and it won't be the last. Its designed to be exploitable. I remember last year a bunch of needs made money ripping off Robinhood

        WSB finding a glitch and screwing Robinhood a tiny bit is not the same as manipulating market prices

        unrelated, I never thought I'd read "I'll watch WSB and make money" on my chapo dot chat

          This was literally a joke on an old TF- guy who learns financial markets only from reading WSB
