Not true. We are not all short sellers.

Flipping stock is not short selling. There is literally nothing wrong with selling a stock you own for more than you bought it. Maybe a good time to cash in a percentage of you’ve made a lot of money.
Buying something because you think it’s price will rise and then selling it is the opposite of short selling.
shhhh... short seller is just a code word for Tesla hater ;)
Speculators != short sellers.
