One way to help is spread the message to users on other platforms. Talk about DRS as much as you can and there is even stickers and business cards that are created by the whydrs team to help spread the DRS message IRL
Do you have any links to who owns these organizations? We could also look into common links such as Board of Directors, which hedge funds are invested in them etc…
Great Graphic btw really shows where a lot of people get their information. Would be interesting to contrast it with corporate propaganda channels such as CNN, FOX, MSNBC etc
It would also be interesting to see how many of those accounts are bots used to spread certain messages and control sentiment
Great write up Chives. The more we learn about DRS and actually owning your shares so no broker can get their hands on them the better!
There are also more loop holes such as if you own a Yacht or private jets you can use it as a tax write off, if you own horses for horse racing you can also deduct it off taxes along with owning your own sports team. ProPublica has done an amazing job with investigating tax loopholes
The transfer agent for BBBYQ is AST not computershare which sadly they are not as good as CS. I DRSd a large portion +95% of mine just to be safe. After seeing how much DRS is suppressed and how it gives me clear ownership of my shares especially when the stock is heavily naked short. It is up to you to decide what is the best way and what you are comfortable with.
They do that to me too and others in the BBBYQ community. Take this guy for example: https://twitter.com/pirateportfo/status/1630181132494049280
I have liked that post probably 20 times now and each time it is removed and I see it is capped at 790 or 791.
This may be relevant: https://www.reddit.com/r/Superstonk/comments/vwldv8/crazy_wild_speculation_on_bbbygme_connection/
TLDR: Theory is AST who is owned by Equiniti getting bought by Gamestop and then BBBYQ shares and subsequently Teddy shares go on blockchain and the NFT marketplace
I have been doing some research on this and contacting organizations. You can find my posts here:

An AIG will be perfect in using our voice within the market. It will give us more credibility with the SEC and the Company. We will be able to push for changes on DRS and if need be getting a board seat to speak to what we would like. There are so many changes that can be made with shareholder resolutions:https://www.whydrs.org/shareholder-proposals-guide
Sadly there is not that much information out there in how to create one. We will be the first of hopefully many. With this organization we can push for DRS in not only gamestop but also the whole market. ShareAction whom I have contact with targets Asset managers and Pension funds to support their proposals on ESG. This puts pressure on the company and encourages change and will gradually put pressure on other companies to do the same. Wall Street really does not like Activist investors as they mess with their game they have rigged. Imagine if household investors who are getting introduced more and more to the market learn about the power of shares and the benefits of being invested in a company.
Welcome! Sadly reddit has been suppressing DRS talk for awhile now but luckily we found a place to discuss and push for more advocacy
The stock has moved to expert market which retail cannot buy on after the SEC changed rules back in 2021. Many people are DRSing to prevent their broker from force liquidation however I am not sure how it works on Trading 212.
We are currently waiting on an updated plan to see if we are going to be liquidated which as of the recent 8k we may have an effective date of September 30.
Those are some good edits! I agree it will be important to discuss our interview with Gary as it helps give us some more authority. Making the statement broad is a good idea as it can help demonstrate the actions unions can take as shareholders and all the benefits. We can edit this letter and then create a list of unions and contact information so we can begin networking. We should also make a letter for asset managers and pension funds for DRS as they will be key in spreading information
I have been looking into this more and have identified a few groups: Climate Action 100, SOC investment Group, ShareAction, Follow This. I have reached out regarding some of these with questions and am waiting a response back. From what I can see we are creating something that has never been done before especially with us having our shares in DRS. From what I can see you become a member by holding a share in the company and contacting the AIG. You then become a member of the AIG in support of a common voice. There are some AIG that are located in London and Amsterdam so it may be possible for it to be international.
