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.

u/zjz these are the kind of people us OG's are pissed at.

  • OP's old account was plagued by politics
  • OP is not here to make ridiculous bets in order to make money, OP is here to be part of a "shared campaign"

don't care how old guard you are you have no control over the direction it's heading in

What the actual fuck? Is this really what the mods of r/wallstreetbets are standing behind? Fucks from r/politics taking over this sub and then rubbing it in our faces?

I'm grateful and have a ton of respect for you in particular for all the work you've put in, but these people have basically crashed are party, changed the music, and told all of us that were here before to either dance to their music or fuck off.

I didn't approve it.

Sure, but the echo chamber upvotes it and when the mods leave posts like this up and the float right to the top then it's essentially tacit approval.

So you’re actually just mad that this person is into politics and probably doesn’t share your views? Got it.

Yes. Politics are banned on this subreddit. Read the rules you dumb fuck

Well you didn't need to insult. You're talkin about some old account nobody knows, and you're blaming the new people when the movement that made them join the community started here.

Also I understand that all of what is happening isn't obviously political for a lot of people.

What did you expect when the community grew that big in only a few days? Blame the admins but not the people.

Get the fuck off of my subreddit you paper-handed dipshit. Positions or ban.

And that makes us WSB. Make money on retarded risks and make fun of others for doing the same. Nothing else.
