More bourgies making yuge profits:
Bloomberg’s Katherine Burton and Katherine Doherty reported on Tuesday that hedge fund Mudrick Capital booked a profit of around $200 million on positions in both GameStop and AMC Entertainment (AMC). Mudrick, which has about $3 billion under management, returned just under 10% in January according to Bloomberg, marking one of its best months since inception.
Late last week, we learned that investment firm Silver Lake had made about $113 million after converting $600 million worth of debt in AMC to equity and then selling the entire position during the massive surge in the stock price.
And a report from Bloomberg on Tuesday said Steve Cohen’s Point72 — which injected $750 million into struggling hedge fund Melvin Capital last week amid a short bet on GameStop gone wrong — has raised some $1.5 billion after re-opening the fund for fresh capital amid what sources called an attractive investing backdrop.

Yes, It is unlikely dotard will be punished.
The system has rewarded wreckers in the past such as Newt gingrich, Ted Cruz who helped reduce social spending through their wrecking. Maybe large sections of the bourgeois still like Dotard due to his huge tax cuts. Future politicians may see benefits to their career by engaging in similar wrecking, potentially destabilizing the USA further

=====================
This is for you, Dad.
I remember when the housing collapse sent a torpedo through my family. My father’s concrete company collapsed almost overnight. My father lost his home. My uncle lost his home. I remember my brother helping my father count pocket change on our kitchen table. That was all the money he had left in the world. While this was happening in my home, I saw hedge funders literally drinking champagne as they looked down on the Occupy Wall Street protestors. I will never forget that.
My Father never recovered from that blow. He fell deeper and deeper into alcoholism and exists now as a shell of his former self, waiting for death.
This is all the money I have and I’d rather lose it all than give them what they need to destroy me. Taking money from me won’t hurt me, because i don’t value it at all. I’ll burn it all down just to spite them.
This is for you, Dad.

“The main point that needs refuting is the view, often expressed by users on wallstreetbets, that by speculating on a worthless stock, and potentially forcing Wall Street firms to take losses, they are somehow making a progressive protest against the capitalist system.”…
It appears the New Paradigm stage has lasted a long time with multiple new paradigms …
Maybe you will need to start watching robot fighting to get ideas.
Weak spots I have identified from the pictures of the Gherkin Dalek:
The top has a 360 degree camera which is not armored and could be easy destroyed with a skateboard or a baseball bat. The hypothetical rioters in minecraft could then pour fuel into it
Gherkin Dalek probably can only operate in very flat surfaces due to being wheeled and hypothetical rioters could trap it by throwing objects around it
Due to its massive size it would be hard to topple. Pushing it over could be dangerous due to the weight and it may have a gyroscopic stabilizer inside also. A hypothetical rioter who attempted to push it over could fall and have the Giant Dildo roll over them. However the slit with the sensor near the top provides a point to tie a rope.
Several panels appear to have screws so if you had a screwdriver - maybe its one of the ones with a special shaped head. alternately rioters of the future could bring a circular saw
Hypothetical rioters should also turn off their mobile device signals since it has a detector
lol this is the first I have heard of this. maybe the MSM did cover it up…
