But..but...moass?
What the GameStop bros fail to realize is that while they are essentially correct about the crookedness of the market, they have still backed a losing horse.
GameStop just doesn't offer most gamers good value so they don't spend their dollars there. This is on top of bad treatment of low-level employees, which is quickly becoming a death sentence for companies whose main demographics work retail jobs and know exactly how bad retail work like GameStop can be. Finally investing in shit like NFTs that no real gamer wanted or asked for. (On top of NFTs being a joke of a scam)
MOASS would be a beautiful thing but GameStop will not be the gust of wind that blows down this house of cards.
I disagree with many of your ideas..you are ignoring many positive facts about gamestop.
Employees were treated badly in the past, but go to a store now, it was full like literally full. The guy at the counter was having an a Animated discussion about pokemon with a kid and her mom having a blast.
Nft images are the dumbest use case of a new technology I've ever seen, that being said dismissing nfts as a new technology shows how ignorant you really are to the whole situation this technology will take over many things but it will probably be transparent to you.
Many of the people jumping on the nfts are bad bandwagon sound exactly like dumb internet haters from the 80s and 90s, keep your negativity.
There is so little use for NFTs in the real world.
