WSB subreddit is cringeworthy



They call each other a******* and r****** as terms of endearment

???

They also have delusions that they are sticking it to the man. That no, this time the rich will pay! Im all for destroying hedgefunds that are gaming the system but come on
this is hella cringey
heres some examples I just found

I just mentioned this in the stock market general that it's getting on my nerves and I wanted to see if I could hide that sub from the front page.

I don't know that much about it but it seems more like they're ultimately interested in gaming the system for their own benefits rather than dismantling it for the benefit of the greater good. I'm all for calling attention to the ills of Wall Street but there's definitely a lot of work that needs to be done in bridging the gap between left and right

it got invaded by dumb populist who think buying into a pyramid scheme is a form of wealth redistribution

as clearly a person claiming they themselves are an r word is not someone you take financial advice from

No, the way you formatted your post is pretty confusing. It looked like you made an incomplete sentence, and that you were the one who randomly said you werent a financial advisor

For real. I long since muted the subreddit so no longer shows for me. I'm all for telling the rich to go fuck themselves, but no interest in seeing them casually toss slurs around.

It's not about political correctness. I enjoy some pretty dark and politically incorrect humor, but have also grown up being called the R word because I have a physical disability and it got annoying real fast. To see people make further light of such an insulting word is disheartening

You act like any of us even knew they existed until the last week and popular/all was spammed with a and r word slurs.

Really just another reason to never go to all or popular though.

They were a pretty substantially sized sub even before gamestop. I'm not even a big reddit guy and I have been aware of them for quite awhile

That's not at all what I said. I never said I didn't enjoy humor using the R word. There's a difference between reality and entertainment, characters and real people

They had like 1.5 million subs about a week or two ago and they just passed 8 million.

You could find some pretty good plays if you were able to dig through the garbage but right now it's 99.9% bots spamming the squeeze plays.
