This is a classic Buffet play. Getting some GME.A before it starts buying insurance companies and hits $500,000.

Fate Accomplice posted:https://archive.ph/pGBp4 At least it’s kind of honest, like they know their company is doomed to a slow decline so stop CAPEX and just become a hedge fund. Also there’s definitely no conflict of interest here.

it reminds me of flat earth denial in that not only is it a belief in something that's obviously untrue, but said belief can be easily disproved a million different ways. they're deciphering children's books and reconstructing tweets from a guy who knew a guy who met ryan cohen once to reaffirm their faith when the counter point is "read the legal documents that explain what's happening in plain english" or even "does what you're proposing make any sense at all?"

As I've said, it all makes sense when you realise the mythmaking is literally the primary activity they engage in, of course they come up with new excuses and new stories at every material setback.

Since 2008 the liberal dream has been dead. People have been searching for a new dream, be it leftism, facism or something else. Meme stocks, and crypto, are one of those alternatives and it needs to work or else the world isn't fair.

Yeah, they recognize the system is broken and unfair, but they don’t want change it, they want to take advantage of it. Or better: the only change they want is they on the winning side

Being on the winning end of the scam is, it has to be said, by far a more realistic and likely goal than changing society for the better overall.

Yeah, but when you’re so loving stupid as to fall for this poo poo, a total revamp of society where “takesee backsees I was just kidding about spending real money on dead stocks” is allowed is probably your best bet of getting some money back from a stonk scam.

My brain will not allow me to me to blindly accept and not question things. I wish I believed in anything that much. You're seeing, to steal a phrase from Prester Jane, the endgame of multiple Compaction Cycles. This is a self-organizing high-control group that has had several iterations of the same choice: back out and admit you're wrong, or double down; go just a bit further down the rabbit hole, and maybe this time, this time, this time, this time, this time, this time, this time, this time, this time, this time, this time I'll be right. At a certain point you're so far down the radicalization pipeline, either a) you're so far down that any points of reference to reality are over the horizon, lost to you because you've replaced them all with true believers or b) that admitting you were wrong and backing out has become functionally impossible. This is actually a phenomenon you see in a lot of scams: if this was a scam, I was an idiot who fell for a scam, so I don't want it to be a scam, it shouldn't be a scam, it can't be a scam, and obviously I'm on to something that they don't want me to know, and the riches are always just one step away, just one step away, ｊｕｓｔ ｏｎｅ ｓｔｅｐ ａｗａｙ. Or, to put it briefly, this isn't one step from reality, but a series of actions where further radicalizing was free, but backing out had a cost.

What gets me about a bunch of these GME/AMC folks saying they have no money left is.. just sell your stock? Sure it's not worth as much as when you bought it but....??? And if you sell it to make ends meet and it MOONS, cry wolf at whomever forced you to sell by making you choose between dying homeless in a ditch or stonks rigged system conspiracy rah rah rah whatever.

Seems like there was a hype-date for this week (Dec 14th maybe? it was based on the International Monkey Day calendar) that Pulte was pumping - he deleted his little Qanon hint-tweets about it and now it has the apes nervous.

meme stocks/crypto are a lottery ticket that never expires, and the people selling the ticket have a vested interest in making it appear someone wins all the time some people have bad math in their head, and this sort of thing makes their brain divide by zero

The unwavering belief on this stuff is kind of like an intentional Schrödinger's cat thing. If they never sell and keep believing then hey, anything could happen, maybe they're actually really smart and they're seeing this thing that no one else sees (they are not). In their own minds they get to be in a superposition of galaxy-brain genius and enormous doofus. If they admit their mistake, sell, and move on, they have to confront the fact that they are a huge loving idiot who bankrupted themselves and ruined their own lives and potentially the lives of those close to them because of some obviously insane bullshit they read on reddit. That's a tough pill to swallow. Continuing to live in a fantasy land is a much easier thing to do.

Why... Why are tickets being distributed 2 miles from the event? Why does he have so much water? Why do I have a feeling there are Flavor-aid packets he's not showing us?
