I see alot of negative press on apps like robinhood and its hard to tell whether grievances are legitimate or said 'serious investors' are upset that democratizing the stock market reveals it to be as stupid as gambling.
Same with bitcoin I find. Oh Goldman Sachs say it's a scam? Right then.
I've seen this sort of discussion around Substack too. There was a piece from NYT or someone criticising it and some people viewed it as them trying to put pressure on Substack for hosting people who've been "cancelled" or don't toe the line set by establishment media, e.g. Greenwald, rather than due to any legitimate issues with the platform.

What trading platforms do you use. How did you set up. Break it down for the psychedelic socialists
I use a Stocks and Shares ISA with a provider who offers a stockbroking facility which allows you to invest in individual stocks (not all ISA providers give you this option).

Yeah I don't think that being suspicious of some research on a new model from someone who has a vested interest in the status quo remaining the status quo makes me the Comic Fan.

That Wall Street Bets thread is absolutely mental.
Martin Shkreli was their patron saint at one point. I think he may even have been a poster, but I'm not certain. I remember going on there a few years ago and there were people posting photos of strippers' asses with lines of coke on them, ridiculous losses and whatnot.

Apparently there is/was a voice chat somewhere for the GameStop stuff and it was absolute madness, way too many people for anything coherent.
 
Here's the plan - surf US / Canada shroom boom, get rich and embed ourselves culturally in UK at same time. Use clout to influence UK gov policy. Psychedelics on NHS. Use media empire to target and radicalise suggestible mentalists. Psychedelic socialism by stealth. More orgies in my bedroom.

I'm only really familiar with wallstreetbets through the lens of /r/subredditdrama who just link to shit going off in other subreddits. This is a favourite of mine

Wow, the New York Times subtly preserving the power status quo via hit-pieces on upstart threats—very surprising!
