 The only way to truly send a message to Wall Street and right the wrongs brought to the world by the ills of a fiat monetary system that embeds perverse incentives into the financial system that favor a certain class of people is to not play their game.

 watching Portnoy fail with bitcoin and GameStop is comedy gold.

 I recently had a large tree removed. It was quite close to my house. When they removed it, I'm glad that the tree professionals did NOT go straight for the root immediately. Had they chosen that method, the tree would have fallen on my or a neighbor's house.

They carefully dismantled the tree branch by branch, lowering each to the ground. Then, they cut the trunk into large discs, and finally, they ground the stump to the rotten roots. 

It's a true story, and also an allegory.
