WSB started as a canard to get more drunk tourists to the small stakes poker tables, in this analogy the poker table is low volume options where you can get a handful of robinhood investors to move the price and make a quick thousand bucks. It’s still that today, but larger players with more money figured out that they could do that too, and potentially on a larger scale. That’s what this has always been about. There’s no movement, there’s no postmodern narrative, it’s just a bunch of people pumping and dumping and using the “movement” thing as a fig leaf.
