    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    “Vaccine doesn’t work” “The vaccine changes your DNA” “The vaccine makes you ill” “wearing masks gives you pneumonia” “COVID isn’t real, it’s just flu” “they’re putting COVID on death certificates even when it’s not” Standard stuff.

    I honestly don’t k ow where this has come from. The financial news are all reporting “r/wallstreetbets are trying to squeeze silver” but literally no one on r/wsb is talking about anything but GME. Very weird.

    I’m all for a no jab no job policy, but not until we’ve got solid proof the vaccines stop the spread as well. If they don’t and it only reduces personal risk, as much as I hate to say it, I can see the personal Liberty angle.

    Ah but both Spotify and Apple are infinitely more open than the record labels that went before them. I agree it’s the biggest target so far, and the most entrenched, but people + technology topples dictatorships every time, even if those dictatorships learn to harness the new mode eventually...

    Yeah that too. Low income both BAME and white British have real anti-vax issues. And both large parts of care work workforce. Same in all low paid healthcare jobs from what I can tell. The missus is always coming home with stories of the mental rumours she hears at UHCW from non-clinical staff.

    He’s out of contract in the summer, but they’ve got an option. I can’t see him costing £1.5m then. Edit: this is nonsense. May have got confused with Østigård. Györkeres contract is until 2022

    Not at all surprised. They’ll all be Karen’s on FB posting about fluoride in drinking water and how were harming the immune system by wearing masks.

    Wonder what all you serious investors think about major changes to the stock market? This whole thing has big Napster/Bitcoin vibes to me, meaning some decentralised system is coming to disrupt the old monopoly powers. Lots of talk of a decentralised stock exchange. The response from finance...

    Love it myself. Last episode (4) was great with lots of fan moments (the Jimmy Woo using the magic trick he learned from Scott Lang in AntMan was great). Lots of people got confused by the first three episodes because they use a sitcom setting and they thought it was just a parody of sit coms...

    The role of a target man isn’t to be prolific. We have two poachers already in Walker and Godden. We need a better version of Max and Baka.

    I’m Jealousy mostly. He’s been stuck doing marketing for a third tier car brand all his life while these guys are doing things he can’t comprehend. The fact he’s hung up on Ferguson tells you all you need to know. He’s got the data understanding of a German tabloid.

    Been thinking about this more today. Just going from rumours and people mentioned/available, no regard given to budget or likelihood, but these types of players from what I’ve seen would be good: GK - Don’t know. Someone commanding with decent distribution. I’d spend most of the budget here if...

    Oh Jeremy Corbyn

    That was also a colossal misjudgment of the public too. From 2016 onwards the public have split basically straight down the middle. Johnson secured the old Labour vote May couldn’t and the Lib Dem’s abandoned us, but other than that it was basically the same. Starmer is another Biden and...

    Five ins: Liam Walsh Matty James Leo Østigård Commanding keeper LCB I’d also want: 2 x ST (Györkeres?), AM/W, LWB (McCallum?) Five outs: Kasta Pask Shipley Wilson That’s about it, and I might keep Shipley as he’s still young. Pask too if we can’t find a few CBS. Baka is out of contract so he...

    Not sure any of those are equivalent to GME though, which is spectacularly over shorted it seems. Even the other joke stocks like AMC and BB aren’t of the same ilk. It’s a once in a lifetime event to hear them say it. Obviously any random stock that gets bumped by social media will return to...

    Anyone know about property developing/BTL?

    r/wallstreetbets was mostly tech bros and others with cash to burn before this it seems, there’s obviously a load of kids who have jumped on now. Whenever someone on there pops up who claims to have bet their rent or something they’re swiftly told not to be so stupid. It’s a fascinating mix...

    Oh Jeremy Corbyn

    This is a bit of a misunderstanding of politics Ive got to say. Most people aren’t politics nerds and don’t blame politicians for events like the pandemic, mostly leaders get a boost in a crisis. That’s why Thatcher and Bush did a war when they needed a polling boost. What Starmers done is turn...
