What would we ever do without black people?

This trend started long ago. The creation of the internet is the most profound invention in the last 2000 years in that it allows citizens to speak to one another and compare notes and literally sidestep the media-narrative control.
Look at the populist movements that happened in U.S. since 1992. You have Ron Paul and the anti war anti central banking platforms. That cooled off and you had Trump who brought attention to immigration, and the populist movement is going to rear its head once again. However this time you can sort of see the fact that this behemoth is becoming aware of a certain tribe and their banks. There is no walking back this reality as it becomes incorporated into the general psyche. Information is spreading and diffusing and you see dogwhistles in literally EVERY single comment section everywhere. There is no escaping it anymore as humanity becomes aware of everything that the establishment has tried to lie about for the last 80 years. Only this time there is no where left to run.,

The whole point of GME being an "idiosyncratic" risk is that Wallstreet wanted to be short the whole market and then cause a dip and then slurp. However, they can't do this because they are SO short on GME that they hoped everyone would sell, that they need the rest of their collateral to be propped up to maintain the short position. This is like catching a master thief dead to rights crawling around in the air ducts while he is attempting to loot your home and then you turn the heat on while they are trapped inside. All they can do is helplessly scream and cry while they slowly cook to death. There is NOTHING they can do other than capitulate and admit their crimes and also laugh as the feds and the SEC all pretend that no one could have seen this coming.
What they were doing was ABSOLUTELY risky as fucking shit. They never considered that retail could pick up on this information and act on it. And despite YEARS of manipulation they still can't shake us and they are starting to get desperate. The Fed likely NEEDS to cause a market crash as an accessory tool to their monetary powers. But they can't because one of their own is going to go under and the counterparty risk they pose to trillions of derivatives is enough to probably kill them all.
Hold on and never stop buying, folks. Never stop DRSing. The fate of humanity literally rests in our hands. These people will destroy all of western civilization just so they can make some ill gotten gains. That is the parasite we have isolated, that is the VERMIN we are about to destroy.

They will be forced to close because they effectively were counterfeiting our investments. The hedgies WILL be liquidated and it will be up to the DTCC to fix this illegal fraudulent counterfeiting scheme. This is such a massive problem that the integrity of the capital markets and the U.S. government are literally being tarnished by the day because they are unable/unwilling to correct the problem that is obvious to everyone. This is corruption 101. It's that simple. They thought with all of these tools they had to manipulate price that they could cellar box dead companies and engage in some of the most profitable trade you can engage in as a market maker. Offsetting buy orders with long orders so that you help-along a dying company straight into the grave. The earlier you are to the party the more profitable the trade is. And unfortunately they jumped the gun and assumed that GME was the next Blockbuster. Now their little "white lie", "corner cutting", pigs feeding at the trough scheme just blew up in their face. They risked infinite losses for the opportunity to skim off of the top and now they just went and ruined the global financial system. Plebs have a W in an economy that has no chance in hell in procuring the resources we all think we are entitled to. All the DTCCs assets are inflated 17x and will deflate like a popped balloon if they try to sell to cover the GME losses.

I bet you find something wrong with this image? Unbelievable.
Don't you know you can't have burritos without half of your country being filled with illegals? Do you just... like... want to give all this up?

Let's all appreciate the fact that it is CONFIRMED that stock prices do not move based on fundamentals and it appears to be nothing more than an algorithm that can be easily predicted allowing Wallstreet to siphon out free money while taking ZERO risk. It's a total scam and these people are holding all of our retirement funds hostage.

The #1 way to protect your stack is secrecy.
If you are getting regular PM shipments mail ordered to your door you may want to have a bug-out plan along with multiple levels of protection if shit does hit the fan. Even things like having a dummy safe with multiple hiding spots could be good ideas.
When the paper-millionaires find out that all of the stocks/real estate/bonds they bought that were worth pennies on the dollar in terms of actual assets, they are going to be feeling wronged and like maybe someone owes them something. People are going to be feeling mother fucking pissed and there will likely be loose-cannons to watch out for.

This entire situation is actually word-for-word written in the "protocols". They will use liberalism to destroy the nation, crash the economy, and have the plebs "eating from our hands" as saviors.
A book written 117 years is not going to be 100% accurate but it is pretty fucking close.
It actually gives me the thought, maybe this multi generational plan was put into action long before they realized they could not complete it. Now they are desperately needing a way to pass the buck because the entire internet-hive mind has honed in on what is unfolding.

They have a lot of control to basically influence people to never try to leave the ponzi scheme. But that is the problem, is that the shortfall of resources is very real. It's not some accounting trick that you can just make it disappear. People and institutions literally are owed a shitton of goods that we have not a chance in hell of acquiring. That's the most straightforward answer anyone can give you.
There is no free lunch. There is just bad paper promises that need to be written off as losses. Because if this was some magic accounting trick we would basically be able to print infinite money with no repercussions. All of this MMT bullshit overlays a functional economy. You can't MMT your way out of a bankrupt citizenry. You can't recapitalize your economy that is humming along based on consumption. You need real interest rates, you need real savings, you need manufacturing and production. The economy can't deliver any of that without first allowing the cleansing wave of bankruptcy to sweep through the economy.

That's a lot of effort for such a reasonable post. I think I am right over the money.

Banking is a fraud that is predicated on the notion that ever increasing growth rates in the money supply, paired with a legal system that defends property rights is a surefire plan to transfer all wealth into the hands of the owning class. The entire west has been gutted by the banking system and all that exists now are the over-leveraged bubbles that we use to pretend we have wealth. As if these things such as stocks, bonds, and real estate all can't deflate and lose 80% over their value if the banks stop extending credit into the economy.
It's a fraud, and Schlomos little screed here is an attempt for you to get complacent in the normalcy bias. Economic systems have lifespans that last several human generations. So no one alive is truly aware of what is happening unless they know it academically. If the government and banks can make us wealthier by spending money then we wouldn't be in this state of precarity.

This is part of the containment strategy. Make this the only mainstream, sensible place for free speech. The platform itself is a dopamine-trap via scrolling through images. And they can toss in all sorts of mental illness inducing content such as porn and gore.
Having a right wing website similar to Reddit would have us dismantling ZOG in no time.

Propaganda works in two ways: Push & Pull.

Most propaganda works by PULLING you away from the truth. But if people start to sniff out the truth, then you PUSH them past it.

All of the Alex Jones conspiracies roll back to the MAC DADDY. The BIG CHUNGUS. The small hat tribe did 9/11. 9/11 happened in 2001, before high speed internet access was the norm and the internet became a social "hang out" for all kinds of people. It was planned and orchestrated by boomers who had no concept of what was going to unfold, a hive mind of data/event processing power done by human actors in real time. Ron Paul and then, Occupy Wallstreet and then Trump were growing pains of this "hivemind".
Alex Jones tier retard shit is all about PUSHING people over the edge when they are just about to sniff out the important role that small hats play in human history.

Credit money ultimately destroys capital as it's exponential nature compels even more credit expansion and begins to vacuum up all capital in the world up to the top 1%.
I am not an advocate of commodity money as a system, but when we are on the cusp of a deleveraging collapse I very much want my wealth stashed outside of that system when the losses start getting tallied up.
The best form of currency is used to harness PRODUCTIVE work. Getting paid to do productive work is what can bring us prosperity while simultaneously eliminating the parasitic classes. We can only consume things because of farming, mining, manufacturing, shipping etc. Everyone who eats and is not participating in that system does not deserve to do so unless you are retired.
A classic example to demonstrate this is seeing finance and healthcare as a percentage of GDP explode from the 1950s to present day. Neither of these sectors of the economy are productive, but more akin to a COST. Hiring millions of people to move money around or act as administrators for a bloated, overcosted healthcare system is essentially just adding "dead weight" to the economy. There are no productivity gains to speak of when costs have done nothing but increase. We are all collectively poorer as a result. We now need 30 year mortgages to buy a house when it only took 5-7 years of saving to afford to pay in cash. Credit money is a complete scam, and the banking sector needs to be nationalized, and all billionaires and extreme multi millionaires taxed back down to being not much more powerful than the average citizen. No more "philanthropists" or NGOs subverting nations and peoples.
