An article worth reading for folks with a morbid interest in the ongoing Gamestop fiasco.
Gamestop doesn't love you, stock cultists. Gamestop is not your friend. Gamestop is a corporation. By definition, it exists to profit. And it's profiting off of your delusions.
GameStop, the company so legendarily shitty to its customers that they were on the verge of bankruptcy, and they expect the GameStop to be nice to them?
So, here's my bleak thought on this - if you *know* that there's a bunch of greater fools, it's pretty clearly rational to buy GME at some price that is greater than its fundamentals would indicate? Like, once markets stop working as supposed, the whole shebang is compromised right?
But, and hear me out, what if we spent thousands of dollars to pump the price of GameStop so some dude we’ll never meet in person but have decided is our champion will have a more valuable stock portfolio?
That means we win, right?
My close family member worked at GS during its late aughts "glory days."
GS paid them with prepaid Visa cards, not actual paychecks. The cards charged a fee to check the balance.
GS forced them to come in the next day after being robbed in the store at gunpoint.
Fuck Gamestop, now and forever.
Have you followed any of the weird spinoff groups? I know there were AMC and Bed, Bath, & Beyond groups, and I think one about silver. I'm fascinated by how they all have vast conspiracies and lore that sometimes overlap with each other.
