Psychological Warfare. Strap up apes

First off I’d be surprised if bots didn’t downvote this into oblivion Hello apes. I am an ape who may have a singular wrinkle on his brain. I have a BS in psychology and am currently in medical school Anyway I’m sure there’re other apes with higher levels of psychological education who can correct me here wherever it may be needed.

Anyway it has become very clear to me that the hedge funds have begun full on psychological warfare (shows how little ammo they have left) and this is how I myself have been trying to combat it.

1. Doom scrolling I feel that once someone has read a sufficient amount of DD and truly believes in the squeeze there is no reason to continue doom-scrolling Reddit. While there may be some positives to this such as interacting with posts, there are also negatives that cannot be ignored. The number of bots on these subreddits has become undeniably insane. These bots (whether we are aware or not) are trying to prime us into more favorable outcomes for the hedges. Essentially the more time spent on Reddit the more time the bots have to change your unconscious opinions. My strategy for not doom scrolling the entire day is to only read posts after the market closes. (Unless some large movement is occurring that day). On days like today when GME seems to be going sideways there is nothing I could read on Reddit right now that would change my opinion on the squeeze, so why would I scroll? hedges clearly want apes to doom scroll

2. Addicted to the ticker This is where I feel the hedges truly have GME holders by the nuts. Speaking for myself I feel a strong emotional attachment developing to the GME ticker, because like many apes I have my entire life savings invested. However, an emotional attachment to the share price of GME is exactly what the hedges want and is possibly the worst thing for myself as an individual trader. So how’ve I been trying to detach myself from the implications of the GME share price? (Aka not shitting when the price goes down and not cumming when it goes up) Well for me it’s simple, I have not been on my E*Trade app for the past 2 months except to buy more shares of GME. To me checking the value of my portfolio can only do 2 things, make me excited or make me panic. Both of these things could lead me to sell at a price much lower than fair value. Therefor, although this has been a painful process, when I look at the GME ticker I try to see it only as a number and not convert it to a dollar value of my portfolio. But how often do i check the ticker? There have been days where I have hit the ticker harder than a crack whore in the 80s. And what did I get out of it ? Nothing. Which is why I have been trying to reduce the amount of time I spend per day staring at it, Bc I had clearly become addicted. As of today I only check the ticker tho at the top of every hour (I know I’m still not doing great but trying to cut back to as little as possible)

3. did you miss the 2008 recession? when you read this question you probably thought to yourself ok this dudes high as fuck, but hear me out. Obviously it was literally impossible to “miss” the 2008 recession being one of the largest financial events of our lifetimes. All of the news outlets were talking about it 24/7, even your wife’s boyfriend knew what was going on. So why would the squeeze be any different? If you’re like me and you believe the squeeze will be felt around the world I’m not sure why anyone would stare at a ticker all day. Anyone saying stuff about being worried about missing the squeeze is 100% FUD. The squazzole will be squozzen most likely over more than one day. So as long as you don’t live under a literal rock with 0 social interactions and no internet (how’re u reading this) you will hear about it from others. Moreover, spending hours per day staring at a ticker only helps the hedges. How? Because they know that if they can keep apes staring at that ticker long enough eventually they will be able to burn people out. The squeeze cannot conceivably be missed, however the hedges want you to think it will be over in an instant.

Im going to stop at these 3 points, although I do have more. Being my first posts I’m not sure how well this will be received, but can continue if people want me to. Essentially my bottom line is that hedges only weapon left is to play with emotions into getting people to sell because of fear OR excitement. My only weapon? My diamond fucking hands 🤲💎🦍

Edit 2: not trying to tell people what to do etc. just sharing some things I think have made it much easier for me to be diamond handed and will hopefully guide my diamond hands in the future. Edit 3: holy shit nvm apes won the downvote war
