They are encouraging a bunch of average folks to imitate this kind of memestocking and then going to "blame" the "plebs" for the "market crash" (the one which is already underway, regardless).
This gives them plausible deniability and more "reason" to "Reset" to cryptocurrency. Which is their endgoal, anyway.
Hegelian dialectic alert.
You know something is up when the front page of reddit is full of memes and posts about this. We all know how carefully curated /r/all is. I think a crash is coming that will be blamed on retailers.
WSB has tried many times to pump stocks and it has never worked, at least not to this extent.
Agreed, there is no anti-establishment content on the front page of Reddit, only pro-establishment narratives designed to look like they grew up from the grassroots.
