Seriously fuck those chuds. They’re elitist, classist and ableist pieces of fuck.

Any of you remember the misc bodybuilding forum? It’s just like that reactionary shit-hole except with stock discussion

    I doubt it will end up being as useful as you seem to think it will be, I think it’s just gossip right now that will be forgotten about rather soon. If it does end up being useful that’s awesome and I’ll eat my crow gladly.

    Luckily even though i don’t like it. I’m not in charge of what can get posted here, so if people want to talk about it, they are obviously free to. I just tire of it myself

      Well they hate rich fucks and now they have a bunch of money. Like overnight millionaires. We want them on our side. Someone has to fund the revolution.

          It’s about the opportunity. It always on leftists to bring people in. We can never rely on other people, but we can use their rhetoric to get them to see the bigger picture. It won’t work with all, but even me alone I promised some of my earnings are going to this site and I’m sticking to that.

          Have you read their threads? They have a serious dedication to holding the line that looks a lot like solidarity and they specifically aim to fuck over investment firms. They aren't radicalized yet, but there are absolutely some prime targets among them. There are definitely some wealthy daytraders over there, but they're vastly outnumbered by thousands of basementdwellers who are tossing in their expected stimulus money. There are comments all over the place saying things like "I don't care if I lose it all, fuck these hedge fund managers."

          I think this is going to a bigger moment than it seems. This is the first time I've seen so many regular politically disengaged people spontaneously come to the realization that they can challenge capital by working together. And if nothing else, one investment firm has already been sunk by this, so that's a net positive.

        They don't hate rich fucks, in fact they idolize them. Just look at how they slurp up every word from Elon's mouth. And now they're stanning Chamath Palihapitiya because he "joined" their cause with what amounts to spare change for him. What they hate are institutional boomers who stand in the way of their YOLO gains. And that's exactly what hedge funds like Melvin Capital are. They loathe the unwashed masses that are trying to eke out a gain in this casino. This is a once in a lifetime opportunity to take their lunch money and stuff them in a locker.

          True for a lot of them, but not all. Just look in here we have a lot of people in on it. Like I said you can’t get everyone, but there’s room for radicalization.
