Taking pleasure in hedge fund disasters isn't a defense or endorsement of WSB, it's possible to discuss the story without squeezing in a condemnation in every post.

Sure. I'm just saying that this isn't the David vs Goliath story that some seem to be trying to turn it into.

My angle is it's good and funny if bad institution A gets screwed by bad grassroots B, and more importantly it's extremely instructive for pointing out the absurdity of the stock market, and that it's good if as many people as possible are paying attention to the inevitable fallout where A gets bailed out or protected, whether financially or by a rule change.

are the prices plummeting because all they can do now with the stocks is sell and not buy since the free market is blocked?

They had to come down at some point.  The fundamentals don't support it and these people that made bank on it aren't going to hold it forever for ethical reasons.  They are gonna ring the register.
