We're not all optimizing for the same thing. :)

A comment containing a few terms I can google and educate myself on, if I'm curious, has far more value to me than "having a conversation" (or whatever engagement metrics you're optimizing for).

He's regurgitating all the GME holder talking points. I'm challenging him to present his conspiracy theory because I know it is full of loopholes, inconsistencies, and is built on almost no evidence at all.

Or better yet I'm wrong and he can tell me why GME is going to moon soon and will explain why with data instead of numerology.

SEC report on GME since you want to talk about that. Page 25: Some institutional accounts had significant short interest in GME prior to January 2021.61 GME short interest (as a percent of float) in January 2021 reached 122.97% https://www.sec.gov/files/staff-report-equity-options-market...

No biggy, (naked) shorting to the tune of more than every share every issued by the company?

What is the point you're trying to make? That FTD's don't exist?

Or that not delivering stock that investors have purchased (not at all or not on time) is super obviously not a big deal in any market?

That margin requirements cannot be waved?

My point is you're a bag holding conspiracy theorist who brings up irrelevant talking points as though it's a viable investment strategy.

Yes, the markets are poorly regulated. Everybody knows that. You've been consistently wrong for years and have been losing money but are incapable of learning from your mistakes.

You asked for substantiation. I gave you that. Your reply is totally off-topic.

Where is the conspiracy theory in what I shared and why?

Why are you so angry?

I'm angry because apes are the most obnoxious people on the internet and you never shutup about your stupid conspiracy theories.

So you're just pointing out that markets are poorly regulated and it's a total coincidence you're repeating all the talking points that apes never shutup about?

Wow, I had no idea. Thank you for providing the valuable additional context of the above being potentially from one of those "GME to the moon"... pauses ... people.

I had it totally completely backwards.
