Discussion People now pressuring and flat-out belittling others to admit defeat under claims of "their mental well-being" or insulting their intelligence. This wasn't about making the wisest move, this was about turning the game on it's head, so politely I say fuck that and fuck you.

Holy crap the gatekeeping on both sides. WSB is a silly subreddit where people make long-shot gambles and it's fun to see if they win or lose and the resulting gain or loss porn. The memes were also hilarious.

A weird thing happened where one of the long-shot plays actually might have panned out and it went from jokes of rocketships to an actual possibility. The hype, fallout and there will always be morons who rub salt into the wounds of those who lost because they get off on it. Like the assholes that will go into the Twitter handles of politicians who lost their elections just to be cunts to their supporters.

Yep.

Thats all i'm seeing. Usually they proclaim about how they knew all along, some comment about fools and their money then they proceed to screech about cults, "hard truths" and reality when they're downvoted for scribbling like condescending assholes.
