Cornelius Vanderbilt; the man who after cornering the Harlem railroad and causing the short squeeze of the century in 1862 said; “I don’t care half so much about making money as I do about making my point, and coming out ahead”

sorry to burst your GME bubble but as nice as it is to "fight the establishment" its been done sometimes, it looks cool but doesn't ultimately change anything. so chill out anons manipulation in stocks happens to retail alot but can also happen to smart money by other smart money.

I made a thread like this yesterday but it finished so im curious to see how many people still think they are changing the financial landscape despite things of this magnitude happening before.

I keep hearing this cringe bull shit about how the short squeeze was never about the money but to send a message to smart money. Like fuck off with that heroic notion, reddit is full of retards, and I see some on this garbage on biz. There have been many short squeezes and manipulations done by smaller traders to bigger ones. The "little guy" shows "the man" every few years or so causing significant t losses to institutions usually exacerbated by rogue traders.

And why does every one act like wall st is working together to steal from retail, Yeah some hedgefunds or banks may do that from time to time, but ultimately they are all competitors competing for money that they win from another. Many hedgefunds dont get bailed out and fail, only a minority get government kickbacks

This is special because of the magnitude of what has happen, and the media goes fucking crazy helped by pussies on reddit that put on a fucking joker mask and revolt against a system which they have no comphrenesion of,

rant over.
