@_hallewiese Fox News literally argued in a lawsuit that no reasonable person could take Tucker Carlson seriously. That encapsulates everything, honestly.
This "silver short squeeze" is the most manufactured bullshit I've seen from the media for a couple of days. They are trying to distract people from the Gamestop short squeeze that will bleed these hedge funds dry.
Just to recap:
They locked everything down, bankrupted a video game store, forced everyone to stay home & bailed out only the rich
Then the rich tried to make more money off the bankrupt video game store, but broke people stuck at home tried to stop them, so they shut them down
I’m not a fan of Elon Musk, and I think he needs to be taxed more. BUT I’m glad he’s standing with wallstreetbets against these disgusting hedge funds. Much appreciated.
@RememberPaine @RBReich Ignoring? Nobody has ever ignored communists. The Entente invaded Russia to intervene on behalf of the White Russians. Western countries brutally suppressed socialists and communists in the 19th and 20th centuries. The US intervened in Korea and Vietnam to stop communists.
@pwsully @RBReich Centrism gave us Trump by failing to address real issues in society while bullshitting and gaslighting people the entire time. Centrism will give us an actually competent and much more dangerous future version of Trump.
@0ok@RBReich Trumpism is not dead. Do you not see how 1/3 of the country will never admit that they lost the election? You certainly won’t be combatting Trumpism by acting like you’ve already defeated it.
@_hallewiese You could do one of those bed rest tests for NASA. Imagine being able to brag about working for NASA while chilling in a bed for two months 😂
