It's become so well known and now that multiple experts are weighing in and saying it's possible, the SS mods are trying to sweep it under the rug by saying it's an "already known" DD that doesn't need to be rehashed.

Excuse me, but what the fuck?

The SS mods caused so much harm to the ape community over this. They silenced people, they banned people (including me) and thus slowed down the flow of shares going to pure book that could have caused MOASS so much sooner.

Not too long ago platinumsparkles made a nonsense post taking part of a GME earnings call out of context and tried to say heat lamp is dead. I called her out on it, and of course she never retracted her statement or apologized.

If they now acknowledge the fact that heat lamp is valid, they need to unban everyone they banned for posting heat lamp, and apologize for all the harm they caused.

platinumsparkles also needs to step down. She has been the most rabid mod attacking heat lamp and she is personally responsible for causing most of the harm.

In my view they've changed the presentation of Plan a few times.

They had Maginot Lines, first just buy from Robinhood, then a "real" broker, then DRS (huge battle) , the Plan is great because better, than broker, then Book only...reddit mods who participated in any of that were complicit. If they didn't get paid for that self-compromise they're morons.

Sparkles might be both.

I still think Plan is better than broker, registered to holder and voting. But door is ajar and unlocked.

They fought every step: In a way that was a kind of a diagram by itself.

I feel ya, but since SS is not a reliable source I no longer go there and I don't bring it up.

Everyone should know the heat lamp theory, and no one should be acting like we're all delusional for believing that plan shares are vulnerable and/or not counted as DRS. There was a time when we all believed that we owned the shares that we 'held' through a broker. If that wasn't true then why should I believe that I own plan shares? BOOK is the way.
