We own gamestop now. We literally are the shareholders. We might not individually be the majority shareholders, but if we make up more than what? 13% of the total shares then we can collectively bargain for just about anything. We can tell them to invest the money we've entrusted them with on fucking anything we want them to.

So here's an idea. Here is our long term strategy for Gamestop. We don't sell. Ever. We hold onto those stocks gaining interest from those dirtbags in the Hedge Funds. We hold it over their heads like Damocles. But as far as Gamestop is concerned, we collectively tell them this:

Maintain a minimal presence in brick and mortar stores. Spend the money that WE'VE invested into them on an online gaming platform to compete with Steam. We are going to eat Gabe Newell's fucking lunch using Gamestop as our vessel of vengeance against the pozzing of the gaming industry. Let's see those Game Journos try to kowtow an endless legion of gamers who hold the majority stock instead of trying to intimidate a single CEO or company man.

We will call the platform BGFG. By Gamers, For Gamers.

Then Gabe Newell will have some competition and be forced to release HL3.

GameStop, the company, does not receive revenue from us buying shares. None of this works the way you think.
