[quote name="Ice Cream Jonsey"][quote name="laudablepuss"]I'm not sure I'm persuaded that the Redditors are in the wrong just because the last 100 years of financial innovation has been how to make money off every aspect of a trade regardless of any ethical concerns.[/quote] The Redditors are not in the wrong. Nobody hates Gamestop more than me. I spent a year and a half of my life when they were EB and if anything the dehumanizing tactics employed by the chickenshit district management and beyond have gotten worse over the last 25 years. If ever a company deserved to be shorted, if ever a company deserved to slowly die it was Gamestop. HOWEVER, the instant "regular" people started to make money off the stock market instead of the greedy fucks that shorted <i>over 100% of the stock</i>, trading sites started shutting down the purchasing of GME. At least they did today. Gamestop sucks and deserved to die but if you can set that aside the fact that the same filth that just kept shorting and shorting them will now lose everything -- that's great. They could have made million from shorting it when it was 25 until it got to 5 but that wasn't enough for them. It's never enough. The old school shits are crying like absolute babies about it to the media, too. I wouldn't take sides except the first time they have gotten screwed like this in the market they started the misinformation campaign. Fuck 'em. ICJ[/quote]
