They can do it to us, but we better not dare do it to them.

When will they arrest all the short-sellers so they don’t have to pay them?

I believe they are trying blackberry, nokia and amc, now.

I think the crackdown will be swift.

Weirdest damn thing i’ve ever seen. Conservatives and whacko liberals (AOC comes to mind) are on the same page on this one. Is “Unity” finally here?

“HOW DARE POOR PEOPLE MAKE MONEY!!“

They won’t . A bunch of millennials with no investing experience will lose everything they put in.
They sound a lot like the uninformed who borrowed money to buy stock in 1928.
Nothing wrong with poor people investing. But these kids are gambling .

The proper solution is for these hedge fund managers to step in front of a moving Amtrak train.

It is the honourable way.

Nasdaq is considering halting so firms can ‘rebalance’. whatever that means.

Wallstreetbets got an offer from Dave Portnoy to use his medium tomorrow.

I'm not sure you understand the situation. It's the short sellers that are crying. You see it's okay for them Hedge Funds that short sell to run a business into the dust but when the worm turns and they HAVE to buy back the stock at a HUGE loss, it is they that may be facing bankruptcy. The shoe is on the other foot and it's tight and getting tighter every day.

“...step in front of a moving Amtrak train...”

Chairman BiXiden and his minion Hunter [”He’s a Gas and Oil Man...” & a former Amtrak exec] would approve.

Here’s the thing... a lot of them put in $500 maybe? Its the Robin Hood effect. It will be a great lesson for them. Meanwhile, a LOT of them will make a lot of money.
