every couple days we get a thread from some academic beginning ‘the anti-discourse faction on this website was very mean to my friend, Pedophile Hitler Esq.’

I put this together to note the perfectly-timed dump that caused a 1% drop in SPX to exactly 5000 just before the tariff tweet was published. I was watching live and that 10:17 red candle all came with one huge order. Whoever did this was probably coordinating directly.

my yolos are up 75x this week with no down days. limited to losing 2% of my cash each day max with huge upside potential, but I've been buying insurance along the way so even max daily loss is unlikely (but possible). my 98% cash portfolio is +33% this week overall.
