The scapegoaters are saying the people active posting in Wall street bets are billionaires out to manipulate the market. It's a dumb cover story when you actually look at it.

Wall street bets has some users that are investing and holding. This is normal. They noticed and talked about how the stock was floated at a 140% short rate - impossible to recover if the stock goes upbad. So what they did was invest and hold to stop that from happening and watch their investments grow as the guilty parties had to pay more to cover the gloat when demand was literally greater than supply. Basic 100 course economics.

The system doesn't want to admit it's broken and easily manipulated by the super rich who do this all the time. Soros has actually crashed currencies with schemes like this! So it's terribly dangerous got TPTB to allow "little people" to realize they can control the beast too, and the automated systems and naked shorting that caused this squeeze won't be mentioned. The SEC never goes after them.
