    Currently weeping over the death of an important, good hedge fund and its brave, useful bankers

        Sure, but a lot of comments seem to have eaten the onion, so I felt the need to check and make sure.

          Because Sean has a lot of very edgy takes and so people will assume bad faith from him always.

    I mean...increasing Gamestop stocks is going to have some adverse effects on their employees. They're gonna get squeezed that much harder when the stock inevitably crashes. I was under the assumption that the prevailing mood of the people cheering this on is that of a Jokerfied crowd dancing while watching the world burn.

    :joker-dancing:

      As a company it was already extremely doomed though, which is what makes this extra funny.

      It's probably not crashing far below its baseline before this or if it does it will regress to the mean. All this attention to the company is probably a slight good thing for it anyway. I wouldn't worry too much about the individual Gamestop employees here beyond the fact that the company has been failing.

    Master Bezos, we have burned down Minneapolis, Portland and all the other cities you personally directed us to destroy for... reasons. Your orders, sir?

    Oh no. People that gamble for a living are going to lose money.

    When I first read this my mind read "Bezos" as Soros lol. Imagine thinking the left is a friend of Bezos when he's tirelessly attempted to crush Kshama in his own backyard.
