The narrative-pushing has been very strange.

I have Reddit-addicted friends who told me the ONLY people who would lose money after all this would be the evil hedge funds, and every retail investor was bound to make a killing if they just HODL

I tried to explain that all those people have to actually SELL, hopefully near the top, to a willing buyer... Most people are not putting much thought into this beyond the fact that it aligns with their exiting emotions toward The Man and sticking it to him somehow.
