"GameStop Corp. says it intends to pursue a sale of its Canadian and French operations.

CEO Ryan Cohen posted to X earlier in the day that the two business arms were for sale, adding: 'High taxes, Liberalism, Socialism, Progressivism, Wokeness and DEI included at no additional cost if you buy today!' "

CTVNews · GameStop looking to sell Canadian and French operationsBy The Canadian Press

James Jani's documentary about the cult of Bed Bath & Beyond stock was easily the single greatest thing I watched in 2024 and in some ways one of the most terrifying things I've ever seen. Human beings obviously have a deeply ingrained drive to develop irrational beliefs when placed together in groups - not quite #Thanatos but also not unrelated.

(Part one, about the cult of Gamestop, is also pretty great, but not nearly as disturbing.)
