Can someone explain this GameStop thing to me? I see people tweeting about this, but I still don't get it.
Okay. I'm caught up. Y'all are the best. Haha.
This seems like it's going to end, uh, very badly for those who are jumping in now. Like, if you were in on this from the beginning, then okay. You're gonna make a million, gazillion, fafillion dollars. But you might be fucked otherwise.
But what I'm interested in is how the left turns this into an educational opportunity. As @mags_mclaugh said, this isn't a revolutionary act in and of itself. But we can use it to break people of the notion that Wall Street good = personal/societal good.
While we think people inherently understand that -- and more do today than any other time in recent memory, I'd bet -- that sort of thing is baked into American culture, education, and common sense. That'll take more than a bunch of folks on Reddit taking bankers for a ride.
