I mind when they: 1) Assume I'm communist :|||||||||||| plz no. And if there are any communists advocating for stocks.... Wtf r u doing 2) assume my position despite previously stating exactly where that is (ie: I'm on the side of billionaires??????? = Very fucking no.) 3) misconstrew economics info to others despite my EASY FUCKING HANDY EXPLANATION AND
To be clear though: - I was surprised to discover I don't mind them treating me like a two-year old -- I get pissed as fuck when my dad does and it was THE biggest thing I hated in school but I kind of go "oh this is because others need it this simplified, I'm glad they are correctly conveying basics I don't personally need"
- I don't mind them disagreeing about shorts as long as they're willing to acknowledge I'm using the correct definition and either they are too, or they're willing to look it up/READ - I didn't my mind them disagreeing about every fucking economic principle I have (investment = good, kneecapping industry = bad) again so long as they acknowledge where and why
And it IS where even ppl who think shorting stocks is good for the economy (tldr their position not mine: "it encourages getting rid of inefficiency and waste" which is bs but anyway - also stocks are just gambling WHICH AGAAAAiiiiin...)
Exacerangutan
: ? No I mean the gamestop and doge mania has this flying around a lot more for obvs reasons. And there is definitely a lot of... Assumption that I'm not an economist, I'm just some random activist -- I don't even mind that
IT MIGHT??? be a little confirmation bias because I don't follow bad takes female economists??? But like again, they also aren't getting up in my grill with stupidity whereas
And it can't be ALL confirmation bias on my part because I do keep ppl I disagree with and like I said, I disagree VEHEMENTKLY on shorting stocks being "good" at ALL buuuut
But I am UNSURE still on how none of the usual are explaining naked shorts or etc. Because yeah, too many ppl are misrepresenting things entirely so maybe that's just minutiae????
Ohhhh the brain damage existed before covid -- yeah but it IS worse now and we both know certain dumbdumbs are more prone to it because well baked alaska -cough-
I always take failure to explain things well as my fault -- especially economics because ... It's my life's mission to reform lol but. Really not my monkeys, not my circus

That almost no one is appropriately explaining and addressing the naked shorts thing??? Like.
1) I always think I must be wrong. I like being wrong. But when it's important and I'm not wrong just bad at explaining, I panic.
3) I WILL change the whole of human history (not single-handedly!!!) And the friction and inertia can't stop me.
