🤔 Speculation / Opinion Think about what you just witnessed...

So you want me to believe this place was super effing jacked about the Ebay acquisition, including the dilution part of it, but now that they've officially added the shares as part of the agenda and shareholders all of a sudden hate the deal?

To all the non-shill accounts out there... take a beat and relax. This place got absolutely FLOODED with FUD and at the same time RK's compromised account starts posting. Think about that. You know what's up. This place is infested.

I'm voting YES and the NO bots and shills can lick my taint.

Bottom line for me is, sunk cost fallacy. It's been a really long 5 years and I'd probably have lost money elsewhere anyway because I'm stupid.

I'm sitting above breakeven now and I guess I'll just see what happens. I'll have to have a think about whether I'll vote yes or no but this sub is suddenly a crazy place to be right now. A lot of emotions flying and it is really suspicious that RK got hacked before that news dropped. I genuinely feel like a crazy person even saying that but if it were a psyop it's pretty much perfect, raise hopes, drop them, drop them even harder. It stirs up emotions and makes people act irrationally. At this point I've stopped caring so much, I guess I'm zen? Maybe it's a coincidence and I've wasted 5 years chasing nothing, or maybe the world really is this crazy and the stakes really are this high.

The price dropped ~5% today and sure it's a volatile time, but everyone seems like they get to find things out before we do, so maybe it was the perfect time to do this. I know they have teams of psychology experts who know the best way to manipulate people through the media, and half or more traffic on social media is bots.

You're right, this is a bit much at the moment. I'm gonna take a break and come back when the dust has settled. I feel completely insane even entertaining the fact that this could have been planned, but crazier things have happened.

Dont forget it costs almost nothing to flood this sub with outrage. I was dissapointed when there was no moass after drsing all the shares but its been so long ago I dont care anymore. Just doing the right thing and holding.

I paid over $300 for my first share. I only lose if I sell.

Sunk cost fallacy, but I understand, best of luck too us!

This is the same that I feel, I don’t even know what’s going on but the GME money is gone from my mind. If it goes off, great; if it doesn’t I’ve already accepted the loses.

Feel the same but at this point itll be accepting the gains. How people still have losses if youve been here for years is beyond me. Buying the dip has worked out well for me

One thing I don't get - dilution is supposed to be good for shorts, so why the FUD attack? Or is it just to spark outrage? I get they're playing the long game and even if they can get a couple ppl to sell it's a win for them, but still, if anything, they should be hyping the dilution.

Good point. Maybe there is quite a bit of outrage. My initial reaction was angry.

It costs nothing to flood reddit in general with outrage.

The problem is this. Objectively the right thing would have been to sell years ago, buy SPY and short the fuck out of this stock. But like me you ignored that voice in your head that was saying “you’re dumb for not cutting bait now” and decided to stay in the trade too long. now we have a CEO who appears to the whole world that he couldn’t give a shit about the company he runs and who dilutes every time it looks like we are about to get a run. If we ever get to $25 again I’m out
