Also, times have changed. The current regulations weren't set up for highly connected day traders with real time access to the market. I have faith that new regulations could limit the hedge funds and modernize trading, but they're prolly just gonna screw us.

The rich can just hunker down and wait us out. It's absurdly easy for them to lay siege to the entire population. All they have to do is cut off the food supply, which they monopolize almost entirely. They could conceivably cause mass cannibalism, and you betcha, they'd be sitting back watching the whole thing with glee, drinking their mint juleps, and lounging while their galley slaves fan them with palm fronds. These same assholes have made damn sure that the general population is functionally illiterate and easy to manipulate, so any populist movement is subject to being derailed by utter stupidity at every turn.

I wholeheartedly agree with the sentiment in a symbolic sense. When you bring a gun to a protest, you are indicating a specific thing. Namely that you are an independent entity with a will and means to enforce it. It's a powerful image for a citizen to strike. Y'know, the whole don't tread on me thing...But the sad fact is that if it came to an armed revolution of the civilian populace vs. the military...the civilians would be utterly decimated if the government was willing to wage total war on them...in a direct, apples to apples comparison of firepower anyway, but that point may be moot as i'm sure there would be a "Storming of the Bastille" kind of moment where civilians start breaking into military warehouses and hacking drones...
@@carolyndetemple thanks.. I try to get some different outlooks but I just know most msm cant be trusted on bigger picture of anything. I'll be back, good day to you =)

"Because we let it get that way" - truth! People always forget that they are an extremely important part of government - the part that holds their representatives accountable. Complaining about government is easy, especially since Republicans seem to have, maybe conveniently, declared it their motto (small government yadi yadi), while the only other force, Democrats, didn't have that many counterarguments to persuade otherwise, considering who they were representing - their donors. Disillusionment is understandable, but I don't think Americans are fatalistic like that. Once even just a part of the 99% get on the same page, things are going to change really quick, and the 1% know it.
Idk, 7 minutes speech seems kind of sus. Finally, when our generation is building the way to change reality, your message is "do nothing and wait for the government resolve this situation, but have a seat, it may take 60 years" Come on, this is wack. Idk who TF is paying you to say that.
Thing is, he's right, at the end of the day, Robinhood is fine, as are the hedge funds, and they blocked off the ability of the WSB to continue to drive up GME and other stocks. They have the control of the technology and the ability to cut you off from it.
@@avinashtyagi2 I agree with you. However, no where in the history there existed a Status Quo which accepted to refuse it's power. The government will never be able to apply this news. This is hopeless. What I think will happen is, someday the 99% will get tired of the situation and the "eat the rich" will be reality. The 1% knows this, so they spread this kind of info, like, wait patiently until we stop gambling with mortgages.
@@eltiopelado7167 Except Saagar didn't say just wait patiently, what he said is that action in changing our government is what we need to do, vote out the people who support corporate interests and replace with people like Bernie
Totally agree Saagar. In the long-term, you CANNOT defeat Wall Street by BUYING their products!! Sure, some short hedge-funds were caught off guard. But they have their guard up now. The rest of Wall Street is laughing all the way to the bank: long hedge funds, the exchanges, banks, market makers, high frequency traders, brokers. They love this new retail trading activity.
You people so miss the point. The retail traders don’t want socialism we want capitalism but fair capitalism. It’s not about let’s make everyone rich! It’s a fair chance to get rich in a fair system not a rigged system.
Oh my god saagar. Im a lefty from Aotearoa New Zealand and you hit the nail on the head mate. We need to open our eyes and vote with our minds. Left and right need to join together as the real war is up and down. Be well and stay safe. Kia kaha aroha nui
Please give your take on the news media pushing the story that wallstreetbets was encouraging people to buy silver, despite Wallstreetbets clearly denouncing this all over its subreddit, and that this is something that would benefit the very hedge funds they were going against.

@@unlikelysuspect5491 Just seems like ppl are bored and divided and wanna feel like they're a part of something.
YES Saagar, tell everyone to write their Congressperson and Senator. I do it all the time and it takes just seconds.
Krystal: "One Direction is a police state." - One Direction fans: :O
It’s funny cause this is what’s gonna make them regulate the internet even more. Once you challenge their money scheme they will shut down the game.
Also, times have changed. The current regulations weren't set up for highly connected day traders with real time access to the market. I have faith that new regulations could limit the hedge funds and modernize trading, but they're prolly just gonna screw us.
This is the most sense Saagar has made in a while. Regulation is the only way to truly control these ppl
False, they control the people who write the regulations not you and me
Unless we control how the regulations are written it will just creat new loopholes that the lobbiest write into it.
That how anti citizen the system is.
sorry to be debbie downer over here, but what's worse is, under the guise of introducing regulation for wall street, politicos are more likely to create regulation which will manage the ability to generate crowdsourced squeezes., ie., more limitations on individual gain & more exemption/loopholes for established institutional players
Disagree. Feet in the street is how we control these people. We make them afraid of us. Chris Hedges has been telling us for decades that sustained mass disobedience is the ONLY way to take down the oligarchy. It's time people listened to him. I don't know why Rising hasn't bothered having him on yet. I love this show but the notions that a) Democrats can be reformed and b) the U.S. can be saved by electoral politics are patently false and need to die.
@@Revolution-tl5wo "Feet in the street" ...Occupy Wall Street was feet in the street and it was an absolute joke. People holding cardboard signs yelling at empty buildings.
We need a political party that is dedicated to only three things:
Term limits on congress
Term limits on supreme court
Money out of politics
And the party promises to disband and all of its members agree to resign from office once those objectives are achieved
we have that party.... it's called middle class
Saagar’s face in this thumbnail is hilarious.
It needs a little diamond sparkle on his smile.
I need that as emote
He's so cute like a mouse
Lol, Saager almost said AOC instead of AMC.
She lives in a lot of people’s mind rent free
words are hard, especially for Saager. he fumbles most sentences most of the time.
that's one stock that can't crash fast enough
@@diegomagellan Then everytime I think of her I should send her a bill.
Saagar's brave I wouldn't be surprised if this video gets deprioritized, if it does please share this with your friends and family.
Brave? He didn't even say anything of substance. What does holding someone accountable mean? You have all the rules you can use and you still let corruption walk.
I'm 63. I have some health issues that are just beginning to get expensive. By the time this optimistic scenario comes to fruition, I'll have been dead for 10 years. I appreciate both Saagar's optimism and his candor about the difficulty, but what I see is zero hope--I lost hope for ME a long time ago--now I'm losing hope for my grown children. The rich can just hunker down and wait us out. It's absurdly easy for them to lay siege to the entire population. All they have to do is cut off the food supply, which they monopolize almost entirely. They could conceivably cause mass cannibalism, and you betcha, they'd be sitting back watching the whole thing with glee, drinking their mint juleps, and lounging while their galley slaves fan them with palm fronds.
These same assholes have made damn sure that the general population is functionally illiterate and easy to manipulate, so any populist movement is subject to being derailed by utter stupidity at every turn.
Yeah, you're right, Saagar, "It's hard."
"When governments fear the people, there is liberty. When the people
fear the government, there is tyranny. The strongest reason for the
people to retain the right to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort,
to protect themselves against tyranny in government." T. Jefferson
But they are not at all afraid your guns which they sold to you.
Poor bears!!!!
@@zperdek they certainly are. i don't advocate for the riots (because of their dumb reasons for doing so) that happened to the capitol, but they were scared shitless though. Republicans are too dumb to riot for the correct reasons. Democrats are too condescending, naive and cowards to not riot thinking it's "not polite", resulting in peak idiocy believing the absolutely f*cked up media. Frankly, at this point I don't know which side is more moronic.
@@edwardroh89 Yes and no. Politics were scared shitless but they are not true power. They are just puppets for lobbyist and tell me when THESE people were really afraid for their life?
I wholeheartedly agree with the sentiment in a symbolic sense. When you bring a gun to a protest, you are indicating a specific thing. Namely that you are an independent entity with a will and means to enforce it. It's a powerful image for a citizen to strike. Y'know, the whole don't tread on me thing...But the sad fact is that if it came to an armed revolution of the civilian populace vs. the military...the civilians would be utterly decimated if the government was willing to wage total war on them...in a direct, apples to apples comparison of firepower anyway, but that point may be moot as i'm sure there would be a "Storming of the Bastille" kind of moment where civilians start breaking into military warehouses and hacking drones...
I'm all here for it! LET'S GOOOOOO!!
Thanks, Saagar. I’ve been down for a few days, and this radar lifted my spirits 😊
First time here but I like the perspective too. Is the Hill a msm channel in the us? Or just local and yt? Just asking from Denmark

''they don't control our votes'' - I literally laughed out loud when he said that. We live in a banana republic
But our votes do matter. Voters in the US just need to be more engaged in the democratic process, to work hard and organize to elect politicians and policies they believe in. Then they'll see the results they want.
Hell yeah! End all hedge funds! ✊
I am all cheered up. Thank you Saagar. The ocean looks large and ominous but I now have a life-vest.
Saagar actually means "ocean" lol
"The only thing that can check a bank is the treasury department." Thanks Saagar. I'll use that with people I know who still refuse to vote or to participate in any way.
3:02 "Here's the good news. There is one thing that they don't control. And that is our vote..."
No comment. I've just lost all hope.
I LOVE how Saagar knows history! 💘💘💘💘💘💘💘
If he knew history that well he wouldn't have named Woodrow Wilson as a great president.
"There is one thing they don't control, and that is our votes." A little bit of a stretch perhaps? Gerrymandering, voter suppression, ID laws, removing people off voting registers...just some of the things that come to mind...
The French revolution was done with blood and it was very successful.
Not calling for blood, just saying the way saga talked about isn't the only one.
How was the French revolution successful?
It led to Napoleon, not very successful
@@avinashtyagi2 Maybe, but it ultimately ended the monarchy.
No actually the Algerian revolution against french was done with blood ( 1.5 million Algerian died ) and it was successful

Hey, there could be more...Maybe someone has an eyepatch, or maybe there are some blind Rising fans...
It's official, Saagar is no longer a conservative.
He is a conservative like Otto Von Bismarck or Winston Churchill. Some conservatives are that cool.
He is a cultural conservative, economic central planner. Basically, just an anti-libertarian (i.e. authoritarian). Give him a funny looking mustache, and he would resemble a mid 20th century dictator. Give him political will, and he might act like a mid 20th century dictator.
@@cameronlockard5935 Yeah, He's basically authoritarian center
@@cameronlockard5935 XD XD
Yeah, sure. Like all those dictators that Norway, Denmark and Finland have been having for the last 70 years, who have created he most egalitarian and happiest societies in the world.
Anti-libertarian does NOT mean "not conservative". Anti libertarian means "you just want me to pay taxes so you can protect your money, and we all disagree, so if you want to Galt Gulch, go gulching somewhere where taxpayers' money didn't pay for the roads".

What happens when your wife's boyfriend won't let you have any grandchildren?
Okay, who’s been reading Marx to Sagaar in his sleep?
right? Here’s a guy that’s been voting for Republicans his whole life and now calling for people to vote for and support politicians that will regulate Wall Street. I can’t think of one Republican that has advocated for any regulation of trading. Not one. I know half the Democrats don’t either, but you ain’t gonna find any takers in the Republican caucus.

"They don't own our votes." Good joke there Saagar.

They own the "vote counting".

The machines are old. Need new technology to build trust.
@@jackmehoffer4976 They vote as though your vote doesnt count even if they might count your vote as though it counts. Especially when politicians lie. Though I am definitely disturbed by the irregularities and the liberty the courts have given states to demarcate, fraud from irregular voting in how they conduct elections, permitting voter irregularities is a gateway to overt fraud.
In a nation that has one of the highest rates of gun ownership, and as a collective are getting screwed over, it boggles my mind why more politicians aren't being held accountable in the most basic way. It's easy to determine who is blocking progress for main street due to corruption, so hold them to account instead of blowing one another away.

no, i meant eat their their shit
Lefty here as long as everybody gets to participate in the stock market and it spread out more, meaning everybody owns a little bit. totally for it sounds like socialism to me.
HEY! Guess what. WE DON'T HAVE 30 OR 40 YEARS. WE are DYING right now!
Don’t support politicians so much as policies
Pray we stay civil and continue following rules.
"Because we let it get that way" - truth! People always forget that they are an extremely important part of government - the part that holds their representatives accountable. Complaining about government is easy, especially since Republicans seem to have, maybe conveniently, declared it their motto (small government yadi yadi), while the only other force, Democrats, didn't have that many counterarguments to persuade otherwise, considering who they were representing - their donors. Disillusionment is understandable, but I don't think Americans are fatalistic like that. Once even just a part of the 99% get on the same page, things are going to change really quick, and the 1% know it.
definitely one of the best saagars given, great job

$AMC baby. This isn't over!
Idk, 7 minutes speech seems kind of sus.
Finally, when our generation is building the way to change reality, your message is "do nothing and wait for the government resolve this situation, but have a seat, it may take 60 years"
Come on, this is wack. Idk who TF is paying you to say that.
This channel feeds off nihilism
Change comes slowly to those who have been indoctrinated by the current framework, but these two have some awareness of this when soooo many dont.
Thing is, he's right, at the end of the day, Robinhood is fine, as are the hedge funds, and they blocked off the ability of the WSB to continue to drive up GME and other stocks.
They have the control of the technology and the ability to cut you off from it.
@@avinashtyagi2 I agree with you.
However, no where in the history there existed a Status Quo which accepted to refuse it's power. The government will never be able to apply this news. This is hopeless.
What I think will happen is, someday the 99% will get tired of the situation and the "eat the rich" will be reality. The 1% knows this, so they spread this kind of info, like, wait patiently until we stop gambling with mortgages.
@@eltiopelado7167 Except Saagar didn't say just wait patiently, what he said is that action in changing our government is what we need to do, vote out the people who support corporate interests and replace with people like Bernie
Totally agree Saagar. In the long-term, you CANNOT defeat Wall Street by BUYING their products!!
Sure, some short hedge-funds were caught off guard. But they have their guard up now. The rest of Wall Street is laughing all the way to the bank: long hedge funds, the exchanges, banks, market makers, high frequency traders, brokers. They love this new retail trading activity.
You people so miss the point. The retail traders don’t want socialism we want capitalism but fair capitalism. It’s not about let’s make everyone rich! It’s a fair chance to get rich in a fair system not a rigged system.
thank you two for speaking common sense and truth these days!!!!
Why you acting like the squeeze has been squozen?! Those are some paper hands talking points right there
Portnoy hands are NOT the way.
Oh my god saagar. Im a lefty from Aotearoa New Zealand and you hit the nail on the head mate. We need to open our eyes and vote with our minds. Left and right need to join together as the real war is up and down.

Please give your take on the news media pushing the story that wallstreetbets was encouraging people to buy silver, despite Wallstreetbets clearly denouncing this all over its subreddit, and that this is something that would benefit the very hedge funds they were going against.
This really shook my faith in the news media. It would be great to hear from a member of the news media about how something so obviously false was spread without any meaningful correction.
