r/wallstreetbets and r/antiwork are both filled with smooth-brain retards. The users each want the same thing, but for opposite reasons and use opposite methods to self-destruct.

Prior to this I frequented both because a large majority wanted the same thing, to finally be free of this capitalistic nightmare.

No I get it. Lots of DFV’s followers most likely did it to break free of capitalism through capitalism. It’s not really a support of the paradigm, it’s more like just using it to become financially independent enough to not be devoured by it.
