A lot of Redditors hate the Reddit IPO | Reddit warned us that its users were a risk factor, and boy do they sound excited about shorting its stock.::Reddit seems like a likely candidate for a meme stock. But the actual reaction suggests that r/WallStreetBets isn’t going to send the stock to the moon.

100%, this is a trap being set for retail investors... not touching this even if I had a 1000ft pole.

What if you had a 1001ft pole?

That’s the whacking pole

If I had a 1001 foot pole I wouldn't be browsing Lemmy on a Saturday night.
