A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

They just keep fucking it up there.
Don't you see a pattern? Every Blackrock/Vanguard owned businesses are driving themselves down on purpose.
To my knowledge, Reddit is owned by private companies and investors. Blackrock and Vanguard have no ownership stake, or a very small and very indirect ownership stake.
For what it’s worth, a significant percentage of every (reasonably liquid) public company on Earth is owned by Vanguard and Blackrock, because those companies manage trillions of dollars in assets (many of which are middle-class people’s retirement investments). They aren’t a conspiracy. They’re asset managers, and mostly passive managers at that.
Why?
They want to destroy the Left's ability to share ideas and congregate.
Year 2030 is a global target for renovations in every aspects of societies and countries.
According to whom? What kind of world do you live in where there's some kind of overarching "force" with "targets" like that?
You’re right. In my experience, the Blackrock thing is the bait to a slippery slope of crazy conspiracies and MRA goonery.
By what method? Is that when the secret computer chip in the vaccine will turn on and kill us? Thereby removing all the people who have shown they'll do anything the government tells them to do, leaving behind all the staunch and distrustful individualists who are harder to control? Or is this some other global renovation?
Haha it is funny that you oppose only with the arguments you read from fact checkers instead of going to Youtube and see what those globalists says by themselves. In every country the top politicians goes regularly to their meetings who talks harsh things directly and all you know is that all they talked is a conspiracy theory. You always repeat the sentences who nobody actually said, expect fact checkers. Lol
Since you described them as "globalists", it's clear that anything you say can easily be disregarded
Firstly, the term “globalists” is an anti-Semitic dogwhistle. Beyond that usage, it’s meaningless.
Secondly, YouTube is riddled with disinformation. This is primarily due to the algorithm which drives receptive users to extremist videos (and skeptical users who might refute those videos away from them). It’s also because it’s a lot more difficult to fact-check spoken language than written language.
I’m not siding with that maniac but can you please elaborate how “globalist” is code for antisemitism? I thought it was a rallying call for nationalists with no racial connotations but I’m obviously missing something.
The idea has definitely come up that there’s an association between the “globalist” pejorative and anti-Semitism (globalism -> conspiracy that secretly controls the world -> Jewish conspiracy), but it’s not as cut and dry as I thought.
Relevant Wikipedia entry about new anti-Semitism
If only we could have understood how dangerous it would be for one or two generations of people with zero understanding of what "research" means to be allowed to propagate that misunderstanding to hundreds of millions of people.
Watching videos on YouTube doesn't equal "research," and thinking it does is actively making you stupid.
I was speculating that maybe they are going to drive the stock price into the ground and the magically "fix everything" to make it go back up, and make money on that...somehow. I'm not a stocks person so I don't know.
This isn't how corporations work. One, they don't have that kind of foresight. All most of them care about is the next quarter, and being more profitable than they were at the same time the previous year. Two, they're not going to purposefully tank their own stock, not for any reason. If "they" did (assuming you mean the C-suite folks who would be in charge of operations), they would be replaced by shareholders pretty quickly for not fulfilling their fiduciary duty.
The fucking Black Rock conspiracy again! That’s just the gateway to incel bullshit.
What's the conspiracy part in Blackrock in your personal beliefs?
Blackrock is "evil" insofar as it is a corporation, and corporations are evil. They're not the fucking New World Order or some stupid bullshit.
I know it feels good to believe that powerful entities are controlling things behind the scenes. But "feels good" doesn't always comport with "true."
I’m guessing you watched the same YouTube bs that I stumbled upon where the downfall of organizations such as Netflix is attributed to Blackrock. That channel is such blatant propaganda/conspiracy theories that I don’t think Blackrock is anything but a target for conspiracy theorists much like Bill Gates is.
@Nuuskis9 @thatonedude1210 all wall street businesses do pump-n-dump cycles. Lol. Take the tinfoil hat off.
