Wasn't there going to be a shareholders group or something. That's the kinda thing that should demand from computershare.

We the plebs need transparency. We need it yesterday.

Politicians are crooked and banking sectors are learning the trade. Things need to open up. There's so much money laundering going on it's hard to tell what's real. Yet we have block chain and can easily follow money.

There's a community here for discussion, but it's tough to actualize. As Bibic explained there are compromises to personal information involved, there is to some degree commitment to some set of ideas, and of course there is the pledging of votes (either through contract or through temporary custody).

At the moment, I think it's still in a discussion phase. I absolutely support a group of investors who share ideals pooling their influence and inciting change.

Keep me in mind for this, I would like for my shares to do more good for us beyond chilling in the infinity pool 💎💪

Will do! Check out the https://lemmy.whynotdrs.org/c/activist_investing community, we've had some good discussion there about other attempts at a similar structure for other companies along with potential ideas a GME activist investor group might push for.

Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn't work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: [email protected]

Good bot! I someday will learn this power!

Makes sense

It takes a lot of organising to put one together. The research into it is there and the energy is there. Now it needs to be put into action. There are some hurdles though, the AIG would have to be an official group which involves revealing names (not everyone's though). Although the biggest hurdle is if people are willing to hand over their shares to the AIG. As this is typically how they operate, then the AIG has control over how those shares vote.

I wish it were simpler, but it's only been done so many times before and this is how they did it.

The wording feels like it went from crystal clarity to fuzzy math.

Q3 2021 through Q3 2022

X shares are directly registered.

Q4 2022 through Q3 2023

305,514,315 minus the n shares claimed by DTC therefore X shares are registered. All share counts are approximate.

Maybe if the DTC didn’t have such a history of malfeasance maybe I wouldn’t suspect them of malfeasance everytime something changes to their benefit 🤷‍♀️

Great write up, thanks apefam 💎👌

These motherfuckers all throughout what we call "Wall Street" deserve to rot in prison. So fucking tired of this god damned bullshit.

They've destroyed countless fucking lives across the world, while fostering, encouraging, and perpetuating untold amounts of pain and suffering.
