But see this is intentional so perfectly fine or something.
Like I can get with the idea that GME is risky and shouldn't be bought, the issue is calling it a scam while the rest of the stock market exists.
Sure there is slow "safer" ways but that doesn't negate that the average stock is hose town.
I too have a 401k but it basically the only retirement method offered by modern companies.

I don't think people are combative toward you or other meme stock / crypto nerds because they dislike gamestop or anything. I think they're combative because the nature of meme stocks and crypto is that the current holders try to get as many people joining into it as they can. Because that's the real way to make money on it. Buy in early, and sell to the people joining in later after they drove the price up for you.

If you just went on about how much you like investing in like, Domino's Pizza. That's fine and cool. No one will bother you about it. If you go on about how you want to spread the word everyone SHOULD buy into Domino's Pizza right now! It is the future! We will all get rich eating Domino's! People will tell you to shut up and leave already.

Gamestop will never actually be the future. It's a dying video game retail store that, in the year 2024, sells more funko pops than videogames. Well known for treating its employees like shit pushing shitty powerup rewards cards or whatever. There's no actual value in investing it. Except to get others to buy in. That's why you guys come across as annoying to people. Not because you're irrational gamblers - that's okay - but because you're gamblers trying desperately to convince everyone else to join you.
