Short sellers are hypocrites

They are the ones who should be reported. They gang up on every post of mine to get removed and I have to write back and forth to administrators to get them back. They falsely flag my posts as containing vulgarity and such but their real concern is that I am exposing their shenanigans. If they weren't slimy and shysters they would not be worried about my posts and they would counter them with facts in place of fear mongering, shaming, gaslighting and threats. Why were you bothered by my last post? Why not let people read and judge its relevance for themselves?

The siege of Candia

Short sellers will likely keep the pressure on the stock at low dripping rates (if we ignore the fake and misleading volume in the form of jitney and wash trades). They will use short ladder downs and other tactics to implement their stratagem.

All short attacks by short sellers aim to break the will to fight by applying steady pressure on the stock to entice the longs to lose hope and surrender just like the old siege stratagem. If someone is out of food supplies, can’t handle the psychological pressure or lose faith in their capacity to resist and win by lack of will he finds himself with no other option but to surrender and subject himself to the will of those who launched the siege. A siege can last for years* to make sure that the most resilient and patient are squeezed out. Emotional control and a long term investment horizon are major insulators against such hostile short attacks. Capitulation or victory, your choice. Longs are at war with the short sellers, losing a few battles does not mean losing the war. 

*The siege of Candia (now Heraklion, Crete) was a military conflict in which Ottoman forces besieged the Venetian-ruled capital city of the Kingdom of Canadian. Lasting from 1648 to 1669, or a total of 21 years, it is the second-longest siege in history after the siege of Ceuta (27 years). It ended with an Ottoman victory, but the effort and cost of the siege contributed to the decline of the Ottoman Empire, especially after the Great Turkish War.
