“And that’s the point, that it’s completely detached from the wider economy, that it’s currently being sustained by amateur investors spending their life savings based on social media, and it’s being aggressively manipulated by predators both ways.”

Hence my point about “not real” and “fake” really referring to things…

This is getting to the point of splitting hairs.

Right, but the point everybody keeps making that you seem to be deliberately ignoring is just because something has an impact on our lives doesn’t mean it’s logical, rational, or in any way based on reality.

If it wasn’t real people wouldn’t be doing it to make serious money would they...

BB did just partner with Amazon as well as a few other companies in an attempt to pivot into an online security company. The stock isn’t entirely a meme.

This is probably my favourite.

“King of the Memes” is better than being president anyway. I mean, nobody keeps a folder of presidents or presidential candidates. Women, maybe, but not presidential candidates.
