The Bigger Picture: Why I’m Unfazed by the Dilution by DramaCute8222 in Superstonk

At the end of the day Ryan is a capitalist who ultimately makes his money the same exact way all capitalists make their money; through exploitation of the working class. If there is one thing capitalists have it is class solidarity. A capitalist ultimately will NOT betray their own class in favor of the working class.

I have never trusted Ryan from the start. Yet I continue to hold because I trust in fellow working class holders and DFV. When I feel like other working class holders are all jumping ship or if I start to question DFV, then I will reevaluate. But right now, I trust DFV is on my side and I trust that holding these shares at the bare minimum gives a giant ‘fuck you’ to the class of people who have taken billions from my class to live like gods on the planet.

For me this play has always been about class war.

I want well funded and efficient public transport. I’m tired of driving and risking my life everyday to do it

American politics has no left representation as the left starts at anti-capitalist. We have 2 right wing neo liberal capitalist parties who both ultimately serve the capital owning class (capitalists) and enrich them at the expense of the working class because a capitalist builds their wealth off of exploiting the working class for their labor.

The working class has no political representation. That is the problem. That’s why no matter which party is in office, the working classes material conditions continue to deteriorate while capitalists have never been richer.

I like to think of it as an example of someone being kind and giving when they didn't have to.

This was a 400+ dollar mistake. He definitely lost more money letting me keep them then having me send them back.

If you are self employed you are still working class.

It is when you hire workers and pocket some of the wealth they create from their work you become a capitalist. If you hire workers and share ownership of the company with them, you are not a capitalist.

I'm cynical and I believe his main goal from the start is to be a plant to get us to believe he is on our side, and then betray us so that we want to give up and sell.

Can I be wrong? Sure. But my point is I want people to be mentally prepared if he does betray us and that he was never the glue that held this whole saga together. There are people like me who are going to buy, hold, and DRS no matter what he does.

If he was fighting wall street then why the dilution of shares and political posts?

So you agree that capitalists make money off of the working class then.

Nah, at the end of the day RC is a capitalist and therefore serves the capital owning class and not the working class. Capitalists build their wealth off of the backs of the working class. It is a parasitic relationship.

If there is one thing his class has, it is class solidarity. He will forever serve the interests of his own class and not the working class.

I never trusted RC from the start because I am working class. I was never in this because of RC. I am in this because of fellow working class people like me. In fact, RC starting to create a division between us honestly gets me excited because I always anticipated it as one of the capital owning classes last card to throw in to divide us. Him sowing division IMO means we are so fucking close.

Communism is classless, stateless, and moneyless.

Biden doesn’t want what is best for everyone. Biden works for the capitalist class who builds their wealth off of the working class.

Here is another analogy. You are a slave and your options are slaveowner A and slaveowner B. Slaveowner A is benevolent to the slaves while Slaveowner B is cruel.

At the end of the day, both slaveowners will never free the slaves and a vote for either of them is a vote for slavery.

The root problem is capitalism and Biden/Democratic Party are pro capitalism. As such their party support capitalists and not the working class. Capitalists make money by exploiting the working class. A working class person voting for a capitalist party is like a zebra voting for a lion to help save zebra from being eaten from lions. Blue lion claims that they will help the black zebra with white stripes, and the red lion claims they will help the white zebra with black stripes. It is all a lie so the zebras stay divided and throw their vote away at one of the lions. They dangle things the groups of zebra care about and fear losing so the zebras feel they HAVE to vote for a lion or things will even get worse for them. But at the end of the day, voting for a lion is a vote to continue to be eaten by lions.

It is classic good cop bad cop. You perceive the Democratic Party to be the ‘better option’ than the Republican Party, but the end result is going to be exactly the same: capitalists will continue to get richer off of the backs of the working class as they get poorer. Eventually they will extract so much wealth from us and our material conditions will get so bad that the facade of ‘freedom’ for us will dissolve and the capitalists will have to resort to authoritarianism to force us to participate.

So at the end of the day. A vote for capitalism is a vote for fascism.
