- dagw 6y agoall wsb is missing are the "moon" and "HODL" chants Have you been to WSB recently? Half the posts are "moon" and "HODL" chants
- TechBro8615 6y agoTo me the latest activity resembles T_D more than any other subreddit. In particular the desperate “us vs. them” mentality has echoes of recent pro-Trump communities. It’s like someone realized the QAnon energy could be channeled into a pump-and-dump scheme.
- adriancr 6y agoIt seemed like someone figured out how to weaponize social media. A lot of things that happened on T_D happened on wsb recently too. - bots spamming 'X from Y, I just put in ZZZ cash' similar to T_D picture comments when Trump got elected with 'I just voted' where it was mostly spam - copy pasta same thing, constantly on the GME thread even though it was outdated and moronic... (usually content is either well thought out, sarcasm/jokes, fresh memes) - An insane amount of bots posting new spam threads visible when reddit ban limits were reached. (good thing for the moderators)
- ChainOfFools 6y agobitcoin is very much driven by an ideology of us v them, but the "them" is either bankers or the state, or both, depending on the flavor of libertarian LARPing you encounter.
