I saw it happen in real time... yeah we can short any stock, we can't fail with that strategy if we just have the trading apps to turn off the buy button but leave on the sell button, thanks.
It's like a casino where they set the rules, they can determine whether they pay out or not (or if it's just a "computer malfunction"), they can also decide to kick you out if you're winning too much.
If the free market is a race where everyone plays by the same rules, then the rich start already past the finish line, most people in developed countries are at the starting line with shoes glued to the ground and hurdles constantly being thrown onto the track, and the rest of the world aren't even in the stadium yet.
I was so angry for so many months. But it got my head out of my ass about a whole bunch of things. Fuck culture wars. Fuck day to day drivel. Millions aren't a lot of money.
We're in a class extinction war and we're constantly told to look down, always look down, never up. Look at the poor people stealing your taxes with food stamps! Look at the poor immigrants stealing your jobs (you don't want to do anyway)! Look at the other party being terrible about your needs! Look at your neighbor having more/less than you!
Never ever look up. And if you do: Look how much philanthropy. Look at all the genius! Never look behind the curtain.
Fuck them. Fuck every one of them, their media empires directing thought and speech and the politicians they buy.
I agree, class war is coming and has to come, but it probably still got a few years to go. Can't rush things.
30 years ago wouldn't have been "rushing things".
Class war is here, it has been here since the dawn of history. And we’re losing. We’ve been losing. But I do have hope we will win. We are WAY more powerful than we think. We are more than 8 billion. They are a handful of thousands….
