WSB has been taken over by the hedge funds.
posted 5 years ago by akai_ferret 5 years ago by akai_ferret +53 / -0

Active mods kicked, bunch of new mods added. They're trying to tell people to sell, instead of hold.

Previous mods are regrouping at: https://www.reddit.com/r/wallstreetbetstest/

Trying to petition admins to give the sub back.

Do the previous mods sincerely believe the admins aren't aware of & didn't approve of the hostile takeover? T_D's mod team learned this lesson long ago. They should just encourage wholesale migration to their .win instead of trying to retake control on Reddit, considering that site's rotten like a fish - from the head on down.

They don’t run their .win. Doggos just made it as a just one case, he contacted them about it and they never contacted him back.

Before: https://web.archive.org/web/20210130043045/https://old.reddit.com/r/wallstreetbets/about/moderators/ After: https://archive.is/uza5d Many mods got removed. A few new ones added. But a bunch of mods remain too. Wonder what's going on.

EDIT: I went into only1parkjisung's profile to look for clues. His last post is a since-deleted state of the union, so I assume it may be related to that. https://archive.is/uCPEG

This new one was set to private.

Are you sure? Do you have archived posts saying so by all the WSB mods?

Looks like the admins stepped in, though the dust as yet to settle: https://www.reddit.com/r/wallstreetbets/comments/lcvluc/an_update_on_the_wsb_coup_d%C3%A9tat/

Isn’t the “squeeze” over? Why would you hold?
