"At these levels, my guess is this is not selling, but short selling."

Short selling is still selling. If you borrow the stock to sell (short selling), you are still selling stock and that drives down price (assuming constant demand).

I don't see how motivation on the part of the seller (to sell his own shares or to sell someone else's shares) makes a difference to the resulting price determination.
