View submission: Mod of WSB removed after deleting Gamestop related spam

r/gme_meltdown is an excellent subreddit if you’re a meme stock drama rubbernecker like I am.

Honestly it is unbelievable that Reddit has continued to allow gme/amc to fester like this.

My favorite post of all time is that guy on Wallstreet bets who lost all his savings on ornamental gourd futures.

Best part of that sub was when the apes kept showing up and yelling "WELL WHY DONT YOU SHORT IT"

So one of the mods did, posted screenshots to confirm and then made shitloads of money all while laughing at them

Reddit condones them because a big part of these cults is buying awards for the most optimistic posts.

it's the same reason why pill subs are allowed to remain. desperation drives engagement. we all know amc and gme aren't going to the moon, but as long as there is the belief it will, people will continue being on reddit.

That place is a negative feedback loop. Provides a slight dopamine hit by shitting on someone, receiving validation for it, and living in a cycle of negativity.

To be fair, GME is the reason why Reddit is now a household name. They wanted it to fuel engagement, but now it’s festering into pure propaganda and snake oil.

Full disclosure: I bought shares back in January and removed all positions several months later.
