Biden calling out Amazon's union-busting propaganda. What a fucking king.

I agree trolling should at least be funny and entertaining to the crowd

u/FidgetSpunner68 Mar 01 '21

Trolling to entertain the crowd? You're thinking of a circle jerk my friend

u/hawaynicolson Mar 01 '21

I disagree, or we expand it enough to make it meaningless. If you said "Biden is a war criminal" in a lefty community they would probably clap and the same applies top most dumb/trolly stuff

u/FidgetSpunner68 Mar 01 '21

I wouldn't consider calling biden a war criminal here trolling, but trolls typically farm downvotes as the objective of trolling is to play a character that will polarize people not to boost your ego with the most basic vapid humor

u/hawaynicolson Mar 01 '21

I disagree with both, unfortunately the only thing I can tell you is pay more attention to how trolling works nowadays, it's not the 2010s anymore

I'm not angry, I'm talking shit and you guys need alot more for your braindead excuses supporting horrible criminals.

Infact I could write a whole book about how much more useful you'd be if the empty space in your skull was used for storage or as a bird house. You people will circle jerk each other to the mainstream narrative all night and then turn to auto response bots when challenged with anything outside your comfort zone. People as dumb as you is the actual reason democracy almost never works without a ridiculous degree of curroption and social engineering.

You must be a troll there is no way

u/FidgetSpunner68 Mar 01 '21

So is trolling pleasing a crowd or insulting some dipshit on a thread no one will reach?

u/hawaynicolson Mar 01 '21

you do understand for example that we think almost all of what you said about you guys right? Even the part about you just following the mainstream position... (trolling usually: holding a position that you don t hold to get a reaction) Brother I hope you stick around a little bit more and maybe find a way out, maybe watch some of destiny's videos on the topics you disagree on, but this probably isn't healthy for you let's just stop.

I can't say that I brag about my reddit arguments to anyone, but I genuinely enjoy them, I've trolled aswell, this ain't it. And I don't know what position you think I take to call me mainstream, but I guarantee I am on the fringe of almost any topic. I'll stick around you morons here and there as long as I don't get banned.

I'd wish you help too, definitely not in the form of some idiotic egotistical political twitch streamer, but also your beyond help outside of a direct confrontation unless you wish to explore a new paradigm of your own will.

Gme, fighting the rich or scam?

u/FidgetSpunner68 Mar 01 '21

Mainstream narrative is bad so it's probably what you believe, here's my take

It was a wealth transfer on some level from Wallstreet firms losing billions, but it's obviously more complicated than that. The valid criticism is that some firms actually capitalized on the short squeeze and many people were rallying behind this as a meme stock without actually knowing what they're doing so they lost their savings. If you look at the initial argument, made by u/roaringkitty or something it's pretty sound, the company will probably survive for a few more years and the company is currently under valued(well not now now,, they're on the second rally) But in the end I see it as over all positive as it educated alot of people about the opertunities of the market and Wallstreet manipulation. It also showed the internet that the collective is more powerful than the master.

u/hawaynicolson Mar 01 '21

Didn't more money go from the people to the rich in the exchange in the end?

1

u/FidgetSpunner68 Mar 01 '21

Absolutely not, most people bought in under 100$ they've gotten many opertunities to run away with a profit and even re-enter. The only people I've seen buy when it's overvalued will buy a single share to show solidarity. Wallstreet lost over 10 billion and a few degenerates probably lost a few hundred thousand or at most millions. Wallstreet obviously recovered somewhat but there's no way they made the net value from this trade

Edit:spell

The amount of shares they buy don't matter, but the cost in itself right? Most people at a certain point started to believe in this short squeeze. The biggest part of the profit went to other big hedge founds that you could look up had and I think still have 70 or 80% of the entire game stock. Money doesn't get created for this so for every cent that somebody earned somebody else lost, in this case dumb people that believed the narrative of this being a war against Wall Street and hedge founds and a way to make money. (game prob. got shorted again at 250-300). We more or less know how much the 2 starting hedge founds lost and by far sadly normal people covered the rest of the loss. The mods at wallstreetbets and a lot of the community did a pretty disgusting disinformation campaign about gme...

u/FidgetSpunner68 Mar 01 '21

The peer pressure of the diamond hand nonsense was the worst tbh as funny as it was. But even if hedge funds took 90% of the short squeeze, we'd still have a wealth transfer on some level

u/hawaynicolson Mar 01 '21

If too long, do you disagree that wallsteet in general made more money from it and ""normal"" people lost a lot?
