Yesterday, within about ten minutes of Bibic-Jr’s Superstonk ban, I also received a ban notification from the Superstonk subreddit team.
The linked comment cited in the ban was on the beyond_uranus subreddit, a sub which does not discuss the same topics as Superstonk and a comment which did not mention or link Superstonk. The topic was regarding the sub owner advertising their own Lemmy community, which is also on this instance.
I’m also sharing my response to the mod team from about 24 hours ago - there has not been any reply from them yet. If I do get one I can share it here in a comment.
This offer stands for all GME and market reform communities who are looking to move away from Reddit as a platform and engage elsewhere. Reddit has become steadily more censorious with time, and the API changes and pending IPO make me skeptical that it is a proper long term solution for assembly.
Lemmy, by comparison, is open source / transparently moderated / communicates with other fediverse apps / free / is without influence of a for profit company / is without influence from advertisers.
I’m very glad this platform exists.
Seems like what we saw with the first book vs plan fiasco of “operational efficiency” shares, then again during the heat lamp theory, and now that Gensler clarified book vs plan they are going extra crazy… Tinfoil me thinks the sub mods are plants and are ok with DRS because plan still allows them to fuck with the stock, but once people book in mass they are screwed.
If we hit resistance we know we’re going the right way.
The shfs want us to stabilize the stock at ~20 and that’s why the mods are so ok with receipt porn and such, there are critical price lines the shfs need to be between, too high and interest screws them, too high too fast and FTDs screw them, too low and the DRS count will skyrocket. As per the net short volume post yesterday they averaged shorts at the $20 range and they plan to keep it at that and wait us out and people give up so they can absolutely tank it with less risk
