Google stock has been trending down since a slight drop 3 weeks ago that I don't know the reason for. There seems to have been no effect on it from these events as anyone who pulled the timeline back and wasn't trying to paint a narrative could tell, and it's mostly stabalized.

But, uh.....good hustle.

If you look a few days back, they seem to have recovered a bit after a massive drop yesterday.

Unless, of course, you don't consider this a drop:

I wonder if the guy will regret all this when his entire life starts becoming scrutinized by redpills online. Or maybe he will enjoy that? It's true that males are more genetically predisposed towards political internet messiahship than programming.

There was an extremely minor drop yestersay that is in line with typical constant market fluctuation. If you pull back a month you will see what an actual drop looks like, and even that one isn't radical.

He already got plenty of job offers, but you already knew that. Sorry to ruin your attempt at being edgy. Not really sorry.

Vlado you at looking way to hard at the graph and not at all at the numbers. $10 on a nearly $1000 stock is not a notable drop, no.

The $80 from 3 weeks ago, though, something must have caused that.

I'm hoping he won't be so ready to go all in with anyone who treats him as a messiah. I saw the Assange job offer, and I hope he doesn't take it (whatever it is). This guy currently has his own schtick, which I respect, and I hope he can stick to it without compromising and joining some larger right movement.

Let's show a graph that only covers a range of twenty dollars to make ANY change look massive in size, just to pretend anyone in the real world gives a shit about some employee that got fired. Additionally, said graph is provided out of context, without considering the overall market's effect on individual stocks, or general fluctuations that occur daily.

Pretty disappointed in this response from you tbh. He's almost certainly already regretting it to a certain degree he got portrayed as a hateful bigot across the media and still is being and lost his job... and the latter point when you look at the upsurge and messianic feminist and left wing youtube channels and blogs and the same for the right and religious, is just stupid. You know there's just as much shit on both sides.

Hell Anita Sarkeesian basically invented this shit.

Never heard of him before. Which sounds like something I should be happy about. The Peterson interview I'm currently listening to seems fine.

You've also already been proved wrong about the contents of the memo several times and yet you're still wanting to crucify the guy? What's wrong with you?

How does that prove your statement, again?

Google hired a bunch of straight white men in the same period, too - much more than the women they hired.

The issue isn't the time, it's the heavily zoomed in price fluctuation. The drop is nothing in overall google stock, but looks huge because it's warped to seem major.

The fault originally lies with the site for displaying it as such and tricking you, but then you doubled down.

Exactly. Compare your graph (not to be confused with Vladograph (tm)) with foolmo's. Yours shows an out of context segment that makes a 9 dollar drop look like a massive crash in price. His graph, showing Google's overall prices, doesn't even register this change as a thing.

Its just the summer months down period.

Since 1950, the Dow Jones Industrial Average has had an average return of only 0.3% during the May-October period, compared with an average gain of 7.5% during the November-April period. While the exact reasons for this seasonal trading pattern are not known, lower trading volumes due to the summer vacation months and increased investment flows during the winter months are cited as contributory reasons for the discrepancy in performance between the May-October and the November-April periods, respectively.

Molyneux Is a right wing guy who's pretty popular on YouTube and social media but also a pro at spinning things. He's fairly smart at times but you can just feel the bias often. He's also does like to troll from time to time, which is where a lot of his hate will come from. Doesn't sound or look the part but it's there.

Peterson's a different story, he's an actual professor who's taught similar subjects at Harvard, though he currently teaches in Canada. The interview difference is pretty enormous and the Google guy totally has watched a bunch of his lectures online. As has the other anon Google guy in that interview.

Sorry dad

If this guy is doing a Molyneux interview then he wants to enter the political arena. That comes with enemies attacking you, of course. And we know that that means:
lol, they really fired the guy, which only proved everything he said 100% right.


However, he probably didn't consider the intense scrutiny and toxicity among his allies. If he wavers even a tiny bit from their narrative, he is a traitor. And a traitor is treated far worse than an enemy. Maybe he is aware and prepared for all that.
