Well we could continue stacking assumption upon assumption, with regard to conspiracy, but it looks a little goofy. But who knows, maybe this will be one time Wall Street wasn't the one conspiring, and it was in fact a shadowy flash mob puppet master who executed an uncoordinated attack through emergent behavior.

I'm just amused that the motives of the folks making huge money off of this are going largely unexamined. If you wanted to talk me into buying Gamestop now, you'd have to convince me that it's not just a way of cashing yourself out. (I also think it's a little dirty, at best, for any experienced investor to be talking newcomers in to buying this shit at this point.)
