It's not a short squeeze any more the shorts sold out at a huge loss. Now it's just hot air holding it up.

You’re getting that from news stories and people aren’t buying it. I just looked at TD Ameritrade and it was at 121% of float. Are there newer numbers?

Again, it's a "Rules for thee but not for me" situation.

And as it turns out, people are very angry about that. And since violence gets you thrown in jail, the next is financial violence in bankrupting these country-destroying fintech scabs.

And look who comes to their rescue, but not for the masses.

Incorrect. GME is still heavily shorted by hedge funds.
