final edit: Thanks for all of the amazing feedback guys. I've deleted the update to this post. It seems like organizing isn't what people wanted with PR. I was also accused of making this about myself for some reason and I never once said I wanted to be a leader. The backlash has just been way too strong even after the suggestions in this thread pointed towards organizing in some way or fashion. I suggested a transparent and public Discord chat for people to discuss the IDEA because that seemed to be what the majority were speaking to. A lot of people liked that idea and DM'd me. Then I was just trashed in the comments for ever being involved in this or thinking about organizing messaging because it would inherently "hurt antiwork." Because that's the LAST thing I want to do, I'm going to back off from this. I admit I'm disappointed, but I'm just one voice in a sea of many. I think we have the support and love and suggestions perfected but I thought organizing was the next step, but perhaps I really misjudged. For those that were offended I apologize. It was a great discussion though, and that is what I asked for. :)

This post has been in my head for a while now, but after seeing how some awesome antiwork members reached out to 60 Minutes about their shitty reporting last night - and then seeing that CNN/other outfits are contacting people who have emailed to give comments etc. - I think we need to acknowledge that this can and will become an issue. We need a mandate about this, we need a group mandate about media responsibility, training, messaging, all of it.

This is my post in a thread today about a CNN reporter reaching out. Instead of copy and pasting I just want people to read this so they can be informed about what I'm talking about regarding this post in general, okay?

I'm encouraging the mods to reach out to me if needed re: some media information and how to handle this potentially major problem. I've done a lot of different jobs in my life but journalism is what I was professionally educated and trained for and I was in the industry for 7 years doing it all, from "boots on the ground" reporting to PR management even some HR work too, for a few different outfits here in Canada. The long and short o

Honestly, all I’ve been hearing this week is the bitching and moaning from MSM, Coke Rat Cramer, and the Al KAYDA obsessed Yahoo Boomer, that Ryan Cohen hasn’t shared any strategy or clear path for the business.

And guess what? HE DOESN’T HAVE TO.

GameStop said last Quarterly Report that they have the best investors in the world.

Ryan Cohen talks to US. HIS INVESTORS.

He doesn’t need to talk to MSM like he did with Chewy. He knows this.

I’m not selling. Poppa Cohen also knows my name since I’m DRS’d.

I’m all in.

Not only we didn't see a valid counter DD in more than a year. But as the story unfolds we see clear demonstration the SHFs didn't close their positions.

I wanted to add that Kenneth Griffin, from Citadel Securities does illegal short selling. Just as Stevie Cohen does.

Also the top 3 banks that benefited gigantic repo loans are the ones that were top 3 when the subprime crisis bursted.

Edit: Just to be clear, I am all for interviews like this ( https://www.reddit.com/r/Superstonk/comments/rytn2f/hats_off_to_rod_alzmann_cofounder_of_gmeddcom_for/ ) where interviewee (u/Uberkikz11) A) takes the interview of their own volition, B) is a serious wrinkle with a documented track record of industry success, extreme industry credibility/integrity, and can undoubtedly go toe-to-toe with anyone in the MSM, and can masterfully handle anything they dish out with absolute class.

Had a few thoughts I want to share after reading this post tonight: (https://i.redd.it/7cuxsxxhnga81.png -- https://www.reddit.com/r/Superstonk/comments/rymhiu/the_smartest_move_this_subreddit_ever_made_was/):

• All due respect to u/buttfarm69’s thought on this topic of MSM requests for interviews, but we absolutely should follow RC’s example all the way through MOASS: Judge us by our actions, not our words. (haha, bananas in the butt, sure, but you all know what I mean by our actions: BUY, DRS, HODL, DD, etc)

• RC gave us the mother of all blueprints, and it is driving the obviously desperate MSM fucking batshit insane bc they have absolutely nothing to work with. It is so bad, the WSJ fucking LIED just so other MSM outlets could run with it as though it was legit, and the millions of normie investors never suspected a thing.

• That is THE the way. There is no amount of active, content-offering trolling from apes, that could EVER be more effective than passive, contentless, no-consent, no-endorsement, SILENT trolling via making the dip shit MSM DO THEIR OWN FUCKING JOBS and report ONLY the facts: (https://www.reddit.com/r/Superstonk/comments/rz3v8n/touchy_arent_we/ 👈 like that 👀)

• It’s like a fucking high profile hunger strike + a vow of silence: The longer this goes on, the more deafening the silence will become...and the volume is already at fucking 11.

#BY SAYING JACK SHIT FOR A WHOLE YEAR NOW, RC, GAMESTOP, AND ALL GAMESTOP INVESTORS HAVE FORCED THE DESPERATE MSM INTO A CORNER WHERE THEIR ONLY FUCKING OPTION IS TO MAKE. SHIT. UP.

#WHY? BC THEY NEED SOMETHING, ANYTHING TO CRITICIZE AS THOUGH IT CAME FROM GAMESTOP.

#AND WHEN GME DOES TAKE OFF, THEY’LL CLAIM THEY ALREADY TALKED ABOUT THE REASON FOR YESTERDAY’S AH SPIKE BEING NFT/CRYPTO NEWS FROM GAMESTOP, AND THEREFORE, IT MUST BE RETAIL AL-QAEDA EXTREMISTS THAT ARE TO BLAME FOR CRASHING THE MARKETS.

#LET THAT SINK IN.

EDIT:

*Don’t miss this

I don't doubt MSM's fake NFT marketplace announcement was stretegically positioned to cover up FTDs, but I think there's more to the story, since they KEEP talking about it. It has led me to believe MSM has decided to take it upon themselves to announce GameStop's plan now, while hedge funds still have control of the price.

As we know, there is a significant amount of options contracts that will be expiring worthless on January 21st, which hedge funds are currently using as collateral. Mark my words - the following Monday, January 24th, we will see a significant dip in the market, which I assume will be blamed on Omicron or a new variant. It will actually be to replace the collateral that is about to disappear. This won’t mean we’ll see an immediate impact in GameStop’s price, but hedge funds will be forced to go into the market and sell-off securities to meet margin calls and continue suppressing the price, which may not last long because a sell off will trigger even more margin calls and liquidations within the market, furthering the domino effect of bankruptcies.

By reporting GameStop's NFT marketplace now, hedge funds are still able to supress the price. They're also continuing to talk about it because they want people to think it's old news when GameStop does actually make their announcement.

This is not to say MOASS will happen on or around January 21st. Hedge funds may be able to stay alive as long as there's no extreme shock in demand for GameStop shares. However, no one outside of GameStop knows when their official announcement will be and when demand will start surging. THAT is where I believe options come in. I think at this point, it’s pretty useless to trade options. Hedge funds are able to control the price and manipulate it in their own favor, and there’s also nothing that says they need to go into the market to purchase exercised shares. BUT once the float is locked shares can no longer be borrowed, THAT is when options can be used to inflict max pain. When phantom shares cannot be delivered they will be forced to go into the market for any amount of shares exercised, and that is a way to light the rocket.

If you're like me, you're probably wondering, how is any of this even remotely allowed to happen? The past year has been absolutely surreal, listening to MSM blatantly lie about GameStop, but nothing compares to today when CNBC and Yahoo! reported that GameStop is working with “Alkaida.”

While we know that if the past the SEC

Disclaimers: This post is not saying that playing options is definitively bad. Options are a tool in the investment tool box. You are an individual investor who is free to invest however you like.

What I am saying is that "meme stock" options are being pushed to redditors, by MSM shills (and DRS is being disregarded), and I can prove it.

So please don't leave comments saying I'm just anti-options.

I am, however, leaning toward anti-options *talk* after receiving the emails below.

I also want to say that I contemplated not sharing this with anyone, out of respect to those involved. I do NOT believe this should reflect on Computershare or my contact there. I did previously give consent for my contact info to be shared in relevant spaces.

Finally, I don't know if I was the only reddit mod contacted for this. Given the circumstances, it's possible other community mods in the Computershare contact list were invited as well, I have no way of knowing. So when I mention this being a "targeted attempt", I don't necessarily mean just me individually.

Ok onto the events of the last few days...

In the days leading up to my recent hiatus, things were getting heated around the GME subs regarding options. As you probably know, we took a pretty firm stance here in the Jungle about how much of that content would be allowed (pro or anti, doesn't matter). And I mentioned that it felt like a pretty classic forum slide, from a mod's perspective. When I see spam-bots being dispatched that are driving pro-options sentiment and viewers to a youtube channel, at the same time as an onslaught of posts on the same topic in the modque (with the same links and spammed across multiple subs) it's pretty obvious that it's not organic in nature.

So after the weekend of FUD, I got a mandatory 3-day reddit vacation, and I also got an interesting email.

The email was the CS rep introducing me to a CNBC producer who was "looking for reddit investor to interview about the upcoming 1 year anniversary." Upon reading the intro email, I assumed it was to talk about DRS, considering what a staunch public supporter I have been on the matter- and because I was contacted through CS.

Keep in mind, this was presented to me (and presumably my CS contact as well) as an interview with redditor(s) about the Gamestop anniversary.

Here is the intro email. Personal info redacted of course.

"They are rage, brutal without mercy. But you. You will be worse. Rip and tear, until it is done" (Doom quote). -- i think this summarises MSM vs retail pretty well. they are brutal. and you will see just how brutal i think below (speculation but please offer a counter argument).

there is a lot of data to sift through and its still classifying as we speak. please do mark this post for youslesves because i will be adding links here and making a miniseries from what i found.

TLDR:

1. look at the MSM goes brr after the "sneeze" and after hediges closed- start asking yourself why-watch video for full effect = it starts tracking from november.
2. Computershares was effectively DROWNED out from january. apes knew about it but in the attack it was hidden. DRS is probably the way although none of this is financial advice. i am just going off the data.
3. There were just 1600 out of 77 MILLION posts and comments that even mentioned computershare before june 2021. many on the old sub. - we all know what happened to the sub.
4. I am building a site - elegant-remote6667.com that will hold everything - site isnt live yet but if somethign happens - that will be a repository for the dd. for sure. and the decentralised storage aint going anywhere.

first off lets have a look at the MSM coverage for GME, eh?

how can i do this? i have the data (below). thank you to everyone who provided the sauce in the comments - your contributions are what made it possible.

i think i have most posts and comments that i need now for Nov 2020 to June 2021 -thats a GZ compressed size, so its really close to 150gb in size that export...

i think i have most of the data now that i need and will actually need to start thinking about replacing one of the SSD's in the array...

TL;DR: Big banks like HSBC led the charge in helping al Qaeda but no peeps about that from MSM. Also Michael Pachter's Wedbush has had nearly 17-20 million in fines since 2000.

Edit 1: added at the bottom: Did you know that al Qaeda files expense reports, has HR, its own bylaws, and Mexican drug cartels have lengthy subcontractor agreements & insurance policies for cocaine shipments? How do you think big banks like HSBC are able to work with so many fellow criminals?

Big banks, like...pretty much all the time.

Just like many of you I was pissed about the terrorism BS being spouted about our favorite stock. So decided to do some digging. Guess al Qaeda isn't really known for being on OpenSea (maybe not art fans?) but guess what they are a fan of? Big banks.

But heyyyyy if upstanding citizens like Pachter are to be believed, it's only GME that would be that evil no? The big banks wouldn't do that? Right...big banks, not unlike, oh I don't know HSBC:

https://www.rollingstone.com/politics/politics-news/gangster-bankers-too-big-to-jail-102004/

>For at least half a decade, the storied British colonial banking power helped to wash hundreds of millions of dollars for drug mobs, including Mexico’s Sinaloa drug cartel, suspected in tens of thousands of murders just in the past 10 years – people so totally evil, jokes former New York Attorney General Eliot Spitzer, that “they make the guys on Wall Street look good.” The bank also moved money for organizations linked to Al Qaeda and Hezbollah, and for Russian gangsters; helped countries like Iran, the Sudan and North Korea evade sanctions; and, in between helping murderers and terrorists and rogue states, aided countless common tax cheats in hiding their cash.

>“They violated every goddamn law in the book,” says Jack Blum, an attorney and former Senate investigator who headed a major bribery investigation against Lockheed in the 1970s that led to the passage of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act. “They took every imaginable form of illegal and illicit business.”

Oh wait, what's that ? CrImE?

I mean, but the US authorities did something about them right? All those HSBC guys helping the motherfuckers tha

At first I was on the fence when the mods brought up MSM wanted to somehow interview this subreddit but I voted to ghost just like the vast majority did because in my head. What do we have to gain from them and more importantly what the fuck do they have to gain from us? Nothing good would have come from it and today proves it. I have a feeling the "sOuRCeS" or "pEOplLE iN tHE kNOw" is them reading this subreddit because they are lazy as fuck and don't want to do any real research. It never mattered how we would have worked out what all we wanted to say it would have ended up way worse today then it would have. I feel bad for legitimate journalists like Lucy Komisar and others that have had their highly respected job title stained and drug in the mud by these bought and paid for hacks. I seriously can't believe this is how the world has been running this whole time.

Fuck man.... The red pill is a son of a bitch I tell you what but it's all going to change...

Buy - DRS - HODL

Honestly WTF is this ❤️ and comment count. COME ON!!! You know better SUPERSTONK!

It is no doubt that the people here understand just how twisted yet valuable social media is for marketing reach. It is also very widely understood by apes that ENGAGEMENT is the main driver of this reach as by the evidence of “commenting for visibility” and “upvoting for visibility” posted on new posts here to get them out of the pit of new and in-front of the eyes of the many. I understand that many of you may already have this habit down, but what this post is trying to convey is that EVERYONE should be ENGAGING all of the StOnK’s social media posts (this is an opinion, you do you).

Here are some articles describing some of the largest platforms algorithms and how they work.

It doesn’t take a wrinkle brain to understand these mechanisms. YOU can be a massive help by providing the engagement needed to put these posts in-front of people’s eyes. Businesses spend MASSIVE amounts of cash to do this.

YOU CAN PROVIDE FREE ADVERTISING FOR YOUR STONK!!!!!!!!

Edit: Please remember to be honest when commenting. Don’t rush them with “I love your STONK!” Make it relevant to the publics view of the company and trying to get traffic to the business. If you don’t want to comment or see the need to a like will do just fine.

Phycology of Marketing:

https:

When next week / month AMC will jump 50% or 500% or 5,000% please do not blame Retail for price manipulation. All Retail does is Buy shares in a company we love and believe in …then, just HoDL. This is NOT price manipulation by any means.

Price manipulation is what Hedges are doing for the last few weeks / years: selling tens / hundreds of millions of shares which do not have just to drag the price down.
Why are hedges so stupid to believe Retail would sell the shares of a company they love instead of buying ? I don’t know, I’m retard. Ask Ken Griffin

Disclaimer: Not financial advice.

Edit: as one retail investor pointed out: the price manipulation by hedges has been happening for years / decades not just last few weeks. Mea culpa !

We have seen glitches before and we have seen brokers' data not adding up - so when TDA changes their SI for popcorn, to show 40%+, I shrug. Meh.

BUT then it's not that it happened, again 'glitches', but the timing of it! GME making absolutte value moves, becomes THE MOST mentionned ticker on Reddit, and then this happens?

If it is this easy to have all attention focused on something else, then we realise how perfect a distraction tool popcorn can be.

Buy. Hold. DRS. Buckle up. 🚀🚀

Why would GameStop break news of their NFT marketplace the way they did? Why not simply use their amazing SMRT to post the call for NFT creators to the official GameStop Twitter, like FB did with Meta (lul)?

Show the competitors how it's done GameStop!

Zuck's stuck with posting to social. No word-of-mouth swag at all.

It’s simple: GameStop leveraged the fact that investors and others in the NFT space would share the call for creators themselves. And it’s spread like crazy in a ridiculously short amount of time.

In marketing, word-of-mouth marketing (WOMM) is hands down the most effective (and inexpensive becuse it's free!) way into the mind of consumers. Hearing about a product or service from a friend or family member will do more to persuade people to take action than any call-to-action button, ad spend, or social media post ever will.

Some stats about WOMM effectiveness:

>23% of people talk about their favorite products with friends and family every day. 
>
>Furthermore, 78% of people rave about their favorite recent experiences to people they know at least once per week. 
>
>90% of people are much more likely to trust a recommended brand (even from strangers). 
>
>88% of people had the highest level of trust in a brand when a friend or family member recommended it. 
>
>Out of the top five popular ways to recommend a business, word-of-mouth comes first, followed by Facebook, Google, and Twitter. 
>
>26% of people will completely avoid a brand if their friend or family tells a negative story about their experience. 
>
>21% of people will lose trust in a brand, whether they’ve been a customer or not, because of bad word-of-mouth. 
>
>Source

Additionally, it absolves GameStop from revealing their development, and protects them from attacks from MSM and competitors. We saw how flatly the nonsensical 🍿 partnership article fell. It was baseless conjecture and was received as such. Social media and MSM did their best to keep radio silence on the NFT Marketplace.

**Unfortunately for them, GameStop supporters took to direct messaging and phone calls to spread the

THIS IS my 10th attempt at posting this- i will not post the links to the sauce - i will post them in comments because automod keeps fucking deleting the post.

hello all, welcome to 2022

Before i Continue: let me just very quickly familiarise you (if you are new) with who i am.

I am a data nerd. a few years ago i really got into data analysis and data science, and started teaching myself everything i could get my hands on.

Enter the GME saga - its now 1 year since the stonk started to go up.

In may I "did a thing" (i cant post here because automod and rules)- but feel free to check it out.

Over the next few months I also continued to track the data in any way i could.

This post actually summarises in one post how the news have tried to shape the narrative- maybe this would be useful to share with anyone who still thinks that media are reporting the truth, rather than 4000 news articles - yes, over 4000 news articles about M3me stocks and Gme

if you are interested, there is a wonderful site called gmetimeline.com -which seems to be good up to november of 2021 (and is also backed up by me).

[https:/

It is my belief they are shitting themselves right now. Latest RC tweet. Publishing DRS numbers is a direct shot at the SHF and they know their time is numbered.

They are now trying to control the narrative...trust us, we told you about the squeeze, trust us, its over, trust us, we fired coke head cramer, trust us, blah, blah, blah.

Until I hear GME plans from the mind master himself, I plan to keep Buying, Holding, and DRSing...no mater what the price.

Rant time!

So, I have a friend who was trying keto and her doctor convinced her to stop because of her high blood pressure and family heart disease... Nevermind that keto has been shown to reduce these problems! Of course, then I find out that she was trying to do keto by eating literally nothing but eggs lol. I tried to show her the light, but she's back on pizza and ice cream... I'm sure that's going to be great for her blood pressure.

Then this morning, I see crap about how "it's pretty much impossible to eat vegetables on a keto diet".

It's like, are you kidding me? No vegetables on keto? I don't know what kind of keto these people are talking about, but I exist on healthy and delicious foods all day every day. I swear these doctors and media outlets are bought by PepsiCo or similar.
