Current state of WSB & GME
Are most HFs just messing around with WSB "investors" at this point? I've been reading through some of their recent posts and all I can say is that it's extremely concerning.

What? You think HFs are actively messing with redditors for the lulz?
The squeeze happened (fueled by other HFs not retail) and most of WSB lost 80% on their positions. Instead of taking the cap loss they went full qanon and started making up conspiracies about how GME will go back to $500.
I don’t think retail investors need to be “protected” from the market, but reading posts there for 5 minutes is a pretty convincing argument the average American is far too stupid to trade their own account.
WSB/GME was concerning to most HFs only due to the second-order effects of the massive de-gross unleashed by Melvin and other shorts cutting their other positions. That's what likely led to some of the notable losses at other firms with 0 direct exposure to the meme stocks. Right now WSB is just spewing conspiracy theories when really the HF industry is not paying much attention to them. It used to be a fun sub but now it's full of garbage and should be ignored.
