I'm not sure if this is supposed to be posted here but I'm not sure this would be welcome in c/wallstreetbets (lmao) either. It's just sad and dispiriting. Not really gonna say more about this because it's been pretty draining tbh.
Also, before someone says "well I don't think it's WRONG to talk about this, and I don't think it's praxis, and y'know I had to pay rent and spent some money on this and I just like laughing at Melvin eating shit and...." cool, I'm not talking about you, you know which people I am talking about.
There were people trying to justify it as praxis by quoting a joke in a letter Marx wrote to his father where he described his stock market activities as separating the enemy from his money, which is an obvious joke you make when faced with the oddity of a socialisr engaging in the stock market and not a piece of theory.
