Ryan Cohen is very strange and uncomfortable.

Public perception of game stop is already poor and he is not helping that.

A few quarters of profitability is hardly enough to go on if you are trying to measure long term stability.

Gamestop revenue has never recovered to pre-pandemic levels.

Personally, if I am investing in a company, I am doing it because I believe in their mission for some reason. Maybe they are vital to the community. Maybe they are doing things in a way that is more ethical than their competition. Gamestop sells cheap plastic shit, I cannot make myself believe in that.

Frankly the whole idea of investing in a company to make personal profit out of it is cynical and rooted in exploitive capitalistic thinking.

When you invest in a company you also then have a vested interest in them doing well. That can cloud your judgement and cause you to look at the things you want to see.

Being that he is a billionaire, his connection to reality probably rivals your own.

That is still only $29 billion and somehow I don’t think the CEO is gonna raise another $27 billion from selling socks and knickknacks. Kinda just sounds like inserting a middleman to angle at more profit. I would rather not pay a surcharge for eBay auctions, even if it adds some kind of quality assurance. His explanation of the acquisition just seems like more bullshit.

Lol. Lmao even.

Is there a word for semantic satiation except at societal scale? Like when everyone uses a word so often to mean so many things that it loses most of its meaning.

It’s actually your civic duty to develop an obsession, American or not. Because, remember, thats what activism is. Indeed how could we change anything by not feeding this black hole all of our collective mental energy?

Yes, allow your attention to be monopolized through your rage.

Its okay because Buzz is American.

If people refuse to pay the prices and use their products then eventually they will run out of money and credit to do so.

Too much growth will kill the vibe in this place.

So in order to get decent medical advice from an LLM you just need to be a doctor and tell it whats wrong with you.

Also because its become exceedingly clear the guy was a bumbling dumbass who made it by luck and cruelty. Some people out there would really like you to believe we live in a meritocracy.
