    Yeah everything has extraordinary consequences for the financial system, best case scenario they might throw a body out the door and then make whole whoever needs it, excluding retail investors.

      I don't know you keep responding.

      I'm talking about material reality. You keep responding as if they are going to cast a magical spell to make all this go away.

        Because that's their function under capitalism, to preserve property relations through the market. Did you forget about that material reality?

          If you are talking about the bourgeois class, not some magically they you making up, then this is a miscategorization. The bourgeoisie don't "preserve property relations through the market." They use the market to turn commodities into money, which gets reinvested into capital.

          The bourgeoisie do not have magical control of the market. It is anarchistic in nature and sows the seeds of its own destruction, as we are seeing right now.

          I'm done responding. You are horribly ignorant.

              I mentioned above the possible moves the State has. Again, the market is anarchistic in nature and sows the seeds of its own destruction. The State can intervene, but it cannot resolve the contradictions of Capitalism.

                  If you are a social democrat and believe the State can manage the contradictions of Capitalism, then we have fundamentally different understandings of the world.

                    Well I'm a socialist and not a Rosa Killer so I absolutely have a different fundamental understanding of the world.

                      If you think State intervention can resolve the inherent contradictions of Capitalism, then you are literally a social democrat.

                      Again, in reality, you are just ignorant and talking about shit you do not understand.

                        I never said it couldn't do that, but this is small ball so what kind of insane gamer revolt collapse fantasy are you harboring? Sounds like you are a spontaneity fetishist.

                          This isn't a mass movement. This isn't "spontaneity."

                          Again, it's clear you do not know what you are talking about if you think a financial crisis has anything to do with "spontaneity."

                          We are talking about a financial crisis. The fact that there's the masses are involved in the crisis does not make it a product of "spontaneity." It's a product of the anarchistic nature of the market. A market which allowed short sellers to buy 122% more shorts than there are shares in existence.

                          We are in the early phase of this crisis. After the intervention today, short sellers managed to clear up 5% their position while retail traders were barred from the market. However, several platforms have caved and re-instituted GME trading. The restriction only holds on RH still.

                          I'm begging you, read literally anything about the ideology you claim to represent.
