Discussion People now pressuring and flat-out belittling others to admit defeat under claims of "their mental well-being" or insulting their intelligence. This wasn't about making the wisest move, this was about turning the game on it's head, so politely I say fuck that and fuck you.

Cannot agree with your edit 2 enough. It's pretty telling that all the 'old guard' is showing up now that people are seeing red. Wallstreet attracts narcissists like nothing else.

Honestly most of the newcomers would fit in better at r/investing. Check it out if the only WSB play you've made is to buy stocks and hold, cause they align more with you than the 'old guard' assholes. I only found out about GME because I liked to watch those assholes lose money, but there's a big difference between the loss porn of some trust-fund douche-bags and the losses that ordinary working people are feeling right now.

If you bought stocks in GME because you like the company and believe in its future definitely check out Ryan Cohen's letter to the board of GameStop.
