my boss said he doesn’t personally post here but some others might. and my boss thinks it’s cool that I’m a leftist, he’s one too, apparently, and that a bunch of our coworkers are leftists. some of them might post here?? it’s a finance firm – the last place I’d expect this. how the fuck do they have a positive opinion of this place??
YOU HAVE TO TELL ME IF YOU POST HERE AND WHAT YOUR @ IS. THIS IS SO UNFAIR LEAVING ME ON THE HOOK LIKE THIS. DON’T MAKE ME POST PPB TO THE WORK SLACK AND SEE WHO LAUGHS.
(I use tree style tabs so they can read my tabs when I share my screen – I didn’t hide this place because who the fuck has heard of hexbear)
ok maybe i’m a pessimist but this sounds like a warren voter to me
I can’t remember where it was, but I was listening to an interview with a left-wing guy who worked for some sort of stock buying/trading company. He said his strategy was to just assume all the hype was bullshit and things were only going to get worse. Apparently he performed so much better than everyone else that his boss just assumed he was doing illegal insider-trading stuff.
he said Sanders
i’ll allow it
It’ll have to do
Warren hexbear poster? That seems less likely than a finance firm socialist somehow lol
I went to a Chapo live show once and saw a whole bunch of Beto bumper stickers that I don’t think were ironic
Eh, you’d be surprised. I know a few leftists working in fintech, it pays damn good and the marginal evil-utility of arbitrage or something is pretty low compared to the kind of shit they’d be enabling at FAANG.
It doesn’t surprise me, actually. I think people working in finance would know better than anyone else just how bullshit the whole system is.
I was a Ron Paul loving, fed-obsessed teenager. Reading a ton about economics and finance is what got me here, plus the post-Trump vibe check
