GameStop announces plans to sell off French and Canadian outlets, while its CEO yells about 'Wokeness and DEI' in bizarre, self-defeating promotion

At the rate these chains are telling me to fuck off with my business and ignore them I'm gonna end up with nothing but farmer markets and crafts shows to shop at...Do not ask those farmers follow-up questions.

Anyone who didn't sell after the idiocy of the NFT market is a fuckin bagholder through and through. An NFT market was stupid to begin with, because it's trying to use endless amounts of CPU cycles to enforce an "ownership" system that is genuinely unneeded and **only serves to benefit Capital and Capitalists.** Hell yeah let's burn down the planet for fuckin skins in video games! /s Later, they would shut down the same market, after barely over a year and a half. This was and is a company with no concrete plans for the future that was spinning its wheels since its core business was failing and continues to fail. Diamond hands? More like Sunk Cost Hands.Akchually, NFTs don't even burn CPU cycles to enforce ownership. At best it's all created and sold by a central party, and at worst the whole thing runs on his laptop.

what an odd thing to say for a company that employs millions of minorities. sold my stock and wont be supporting chewy eitherYou might be off by a few million...

Let me tell you a story... I sold off all my Bitcoin and put it all into GME stock right when it was starting to go up... It wasn't much like it was worth 1000 bucks or something... And then Bitcoin went from 30k to 60k in like two months... And now it's closer to 100k Long story short I make bad choices and no fuckin way I'm selling my GME for a loss just for it to double or triple again in two months
-
It's not I assure you... I paid like 50 bucks for the Bitcoin I think maybe 100 at most... I had it for a while... I don't care about the money it's mostly written off I just let it sit at this point because you can't time the market or somethingIt's more a commentary on your writing style, but the potential for satireality is written all over it. > <1000 bucks or something > Long story short I make bad choices and no fuckin way I'm selling my GME for a loss just for it to double or triple again in two months

guess it's time to finally sell my GameStop stonk. Carbon hands, everyone.I sold all mine the second he started tweeting about trump. Good riddance.

But I guess your right...

What ya dont want to gawk at the gangster spongebob shirts that seem to be at every stall?It's moreso that the vendors seem to fall into two not entirely seperate categories. - The sheistiest sheister that you would be terrified to get in a van with. - Someone who definitely has a borderline illicit script of oxy on them and think bathing is an option, and a philosophical dilemma.

They don't sell a lot of video games at farmers markets and craft shows... You have to go to a flea market for that, and those are rather dodgy.You can get them online for free

>they’re claiming 4 billion cash on hand If that's a lie then they will get absolutely wrecked by the authorities since they're a publicly traded company.

My local stores sell steam games and PC parts, I don't think you understand the business model.. When was the last time you visited a store?

>they’re claiming 4 billion cash on hand If that's a lie then they will get absolutely wrecked by the authorities since they're a publicly traded company.Over 4 billion cash is shown on the balance sheets on their latest filings too

"illicit script of oxy on them and think bathing is an option" Do we have a Lemmy Uppity Award for fake narratives? If you actually walked around a flea market, as a human being, you would see it's mostly families and senior citizens. You've selected a few "characters" for your narrative and have grossly stepped into some pompous position of enlightenment. Anyone that loves cheap electronics to tinker with absolutely gets thrilled to go to a flea market with some disposable income. It takes a special kind of drug induced "sketchy" person to wake up at **6am on a saturday** to try and make some income, damn shame there's people like you out there that wouldn't give the location a chance but will walk into any corporate store without a thought to "**all the shady, drug ladened CEO's you don't want to get into a van with**". But you can't see them so I suppose that might make it better for you.
