So what happens when WSBers realize that they can go the other way and also short a company over 100% into a bankruptcy? Are corporate raids/hostile takeovers next?

Why would they do that?  Their entire mission was predicated on putting firms who short companies out of business.  These hedge funds that make money by betting against corporate America add nothing to society.  Absolutely nothing.  I applaud what they are doing wholeheartedly.

Nothing, your basically pooling together millions of dollars so you can give billionaires a better deal on a stock they already wanted to buy

Thought it was just to make money? I'm in no way rooting for the hedge funds, guess need to fight fire with fire.

It should not be possible to short 145%  More shorts than there are actual stocks available to buy.
That is no high risk gambling but market manipulation plain and simple.

Now that everyone know what "shortning a stock" is, look into which stocks were shorted right before 9/11
More importantly who shorted them

^^^Got some old junk somewhere with the right price willing to sell.  (If i remember where it is)

Treasury Secretary Yellen received over $800k in speaking fees from hedge fund involved in GameStop controversy

Fox News and other media sources are reporting that Janet Yellen, confirmed just this week as Treasury Secretary with only a handful of Republicans voting against her received around $810,000 in speaking fees from a hedge fund that bailed out one of the primary “victims” of the recent GameStop “controversy.”

Fox says that Yellen’s financial disclosure showed she made over $337,000 over multiple days last October from Citadel. She made an additional $292,500 in October 2019 and $180,000 in December of that same year.

"Speaking fees". Not really much familiar with that term, I'm not from the US. But it seems like some kind of twisted way to make bribes acceptable to be spoken about publicly. Imagine betraying 300 million people for $800K.

This is the disease of recent years. paraphrasing, "If you expose yourself to large risk, it should be banned."
But, If someone wishes to risk all their capital on 100x leverage, or shorting at 150% of float, as long as the risk is covered so nobody else is at risk, then this should be entire your own responsibility and is perfectly acceptable to me.
These aren't kids, they know exactly what they are doing, just like we do, so keep the state out of individuals affairs and let people take responsibility for their own actions.,

The Wall Street Scammers are not bad because they do crazy shit like this, they are bad because they rig the game. The rules they play by are not the same rules everyone else plays by - everyone like to win, but nobody likes a cheat.

Safety is an unattainable goal.  To seek safety at all costs is damaging. 
That is exactly the direction society is moving.  Anything the least bit scary has to be suppressed.  Never take chances, never let anybody else take a chance, never ever upset the apple cart.
Governments today are fully on board with this craven ethos.

"Warning: Get your Bitcoin out of Robinhood while you still can!"

https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/l8lmgq/warning_get_your_bitcoin_out_of_robinhood_while/

If you purchased a BTC at say $30,000, but never took it out of Robin Hood, they may never have bought one, to begin with. They have your $30K and you have nothing. If they didn't have one on hand when they took your money, they will have to buy one now at almost $34K. If they do have your coins on hand, they are strapped for cash due to the squeeze and if they liquidate your BTC you are GOXED.

Those fucks. I hope they go bankrupt very soon.

Never forget: "Not your keys, not your Bitcoin."

This is something a lot of people still don't understand. Unfortunately a great number of them aren't newbies either

The 3.5% rule: how a small minority can change the world

WBS + WO = 3.49%

Major changes require about 3.5% of the population actively participating in.
Soon this 3.5% will be gained, and then VICTORY!
