And 5 years later my GME is still worth shit. The shorts managed to game the system enough to where they only had a small impact. There will never be a moonshot anymore on it.

Well somebody got rich off you all. It just wasn't you.

At least this person realizes that they aren't going to get their money. Too many people are still deluded and think as long as they keep holding on, they're going to be rich.

Those guys got so fleeced by the people who kept telling them "diamond hands!"

Yeah I’m still positive because I bought pre split, but even if I sell at a loss I still get a chunk of my money back and I can claim the losses on my taxes so 🤷‍♂️

I'm sure Roaring Kitty or whoever it was cashed out pretty close to the peak, and bought them back when it tumbled.

Fair play, he did a good con.

And yet he's still celebrated by a hero by people who think any day now the squeeze is going to happen and they're going to get rich.
