Holy shit, I can't believe people are comparing RH to Twitter, retail investment and corrupt hedge funds to people inciting violence against election results.

Holy shit, I can't believe people are comparing RH to Twitter, retail investment and corrupt hedge funds to people inciting violence against election results.
FWIW, this is an app in a supposedly regulated sector, making the call to affect stock prices and cut retail investors out of the market and causing a stock to tank.
- jb775 6y agoI'm not comparing RH to Twitter, I'm comparing a private business' decision to a private business' decision, per your logic on the Twitter situation (banning any loud right-wing person). Time will tell if RH actually did anything illegal. If they didn't, then your previous Twitter logic should hold....i.e. "they're a private business and they can do whatever they want"....right? I think what's ACTUALLY going on (whether your cognitive dissonance will allow you to perceive this comment or not), is that since this doesn't cut across political lines, you want to treat the situation differently.
- unethical_ban 6y agoYour comment doesn't get as much respect from me, because you think every loud right wing person is being censored on twitter, which is objectively, verifiably, bullshit. You are wrong. Incorrect. Lying? I don't know if you believe what you say or not. Calls to violence from people in power are different from market manipulation.
