>Redditfags into blowing up the financial system

Yeah, that's not gonna happen. They don't have enough capital.

When the hedges shorted those stocks they borrowed shares from big banks. Those big banks have too much to lose if the music stopped. So they would forgive debts of stock (worth less than the meager capital that the Redditors have at they disposal) before breaking their customers and blowing it all up.

The mechanics of this thing are not as absolute as many seem to think.

>a blood bath when they can't buy back the stock that is due returned tomorrow.

My point is that they don't have to return it to the people they borrowed it from (not the Redditors, that's for sure) if the lenders say, "Nah, it's all cool. We'll give you an extension." Those big banks could even forgive the debt completely.
