I don't even think its really normies causing these types of problems.

Its the same type of guy who runs pump and dump schemes and does venture capital investments. Someone who already has a lot of money (aka not normies) and is trying to make a lot of quick bucks injecting money into something and then pulling it out without a care about the product/company itself. Or some ultra rich guy whose only in it to feed his ego and need for control.

The normies buying a handful of tiny shares hoping to increase their wealth just a bit are very unlikely to even have their opinions heard, its just assumed what they want is "money" and the board talks for them.
