Conspiracy theory: This entire GME squeeze was orchestrated by one/many of Robinhood’s competitors who spotted this weakness and knew exactly how to leverage the masses to exploit it and drive RH out of business.
- sidlls 6y agoYeah, no. This is similar to Republican claims of election fraud: it's entirely plausible (and downright indefensible to not believe) that voting machines are subject to manipulation, but at the same time there's just an astounding lack of evidence any such manipulation exists.
- bluGill 6y agothere clearly has been manipulation of some sort. However not anywhere near enough to turn the election. A couple dead people who voted here and there needs to be investigated, but 10 votes in a state don't change any results.
- imwillofficial 6y agoWhat are your sources? I haven’t read that 10 fraudulent votes number anywhere. I did watch the video with the woman unpacking the suitcase full of ballots. That wasn’t her best day for sure.
- fabbari 6y agoHi, looking for the video - the ones I saw were two from Georgia, both showing regular ballot boxes being counted. Could you provide a link?
- imwillofficial 6y agoThat’s the one, and there was nothing “regular” about ballots being counted while everyone else was kicked out of the room for the night.
- grupthink 6y agoFake news. Please do a quick Google search.
- imwillofficial 6y agoI reverse your fake news! ballots being counted while everyone else was kicked out of the room for the night is fraud.
- jliptzin 6y agoI agree but it's fun to wonder
- ogre_codes 6y agoI think the much simpler "conspiracy" is that a few people in WSB have been using the platform to pump and dump stocks and this one just got a little out of control. RH has fucked up a bunch here, but there are some folks who are going to make a killing on this (maybe already have). It's quite possible there are a few front-runners on WSB who are talking GME up like mad even as they quietly sell off shares for a big profit. The front runners have big profits on this deal.
- monopoledance 6y agoSorry, but this really isn't just a WSB pump and dump. The real issue is what the hedgefonds did before WSB even got involved.
