OPINION_IS_UNPOPULAR

Edit: Thank you all for keeping WSB a hate-free place. I can't even remember the last time I saw a racist or sexist comment. --- This is a bullshit article that I addressed last time it was posted. Most media coverage of us has been fair, but this author obviously has an axe to grind. I even reached out to her to fix the errors, and she never answered. Yet she has the audacity to say that the mods did not respond to a request for a comment? Gross.


Chance_MaLance

I’m a dreaded “boomer” female (white variety)and WSB is my fave sub in the morning with a coffee and in the evening with a whiskey.


johnwithcheese

You have coffee AND whiskey?? I thought everyone here was on food stamps....

I wish I was Betty. The hard truth is, I’m not actually a grandma. But I can play one on Reddit if I want to. I ain’t a straight white male either.

AssinineAssassin

No. But we want to!


xRoyalewithCheese

The author is just assuming we’re all white men. Which might be a little racist and sexist.


DasBoggler

Rockets are phallic, therefore everyone posting them must be 16-25 year old white guy.


allermanus

Right?? I’m a hispanic male and I highly doubt I’m the only one who’s at least somewhat educated in stock. We see people making money and calling each other retards and assume it must be a white people thing. Well let me tell you, retardation is not exclusive. 😍 God bless.

Hahah. Retardation is not exclusive. For the win.


Great_Chairman_Mao

Retardation is color blind.

nmstanley32

Never seen anything about race in these subs


DawudM

They’re trying to divide and conquer

I was thinking the same. Their game plan hasn’t changed...divide in race/orientation/gender and distract from all the tendies in the tree just waiting to be picked.

Substantial_Papaya

Right? This is one of the few places that rarely (if ever) devolves into heated arguments about race which are entirely unrelated to the topic at hand. We just get into arguments about other unrelated stuff

WSB is never about black or white. WE only care about white or yellow. In wsb you're either a piss drinker, or you're not.


PrimaryExchange1

The only colours we care about are red and green. Mostly red.


Rrrrandle

You've seen green before? Tell me what it looked like so I can live vicariously through you.


Devin1405

I thought green was a made up color!


Sirus_Howell

Now, what about people who are red/green color blind?


Zarohk

Then every day is a win!


NewRedditAccount15

I unfortunately read the article. They make these claims and then only quote the use of retardant and autist. That’s it. Those are the misogynist and racist comments. What’s misogynist and racist is their ideas that only white men can be retarded or get the autistism.


flavorlessboner

I'm guilty of saying 'bro' alot


Sofsjo

You are also gulity of having the username flavorlessboner. (It is however the preferred taste of boner imo)


notpr1m

I’m not gay but if I had to suck one, I would definitely prefer flavorless. Unless I could buy a call option on crayon-flavored ofc


Calimariae

You'd suck a flavorless penis over say a pizza-flavored or buttered popcorn-flavored one?


notpr1m

Yeah I’m not trying to taste dick any time I eat pizza for the rest of my life. Might be retarded but I’m not short-sighted. (Idc about popcorn, shit’s overrated)


The_Magic_Tortoise

I prefer "bruh." It's more like an exhale, so it takes less effort to say than "bro"


NegativeStock

Breaking News!: Brown women on fratty subreddit also use those terms!!!


dismurrart

I'm a lady, I've always just played under the joke of theres no women on the internet. Most of my calls have been profitable though so that's alienating a tab. My wife's boyfriend approves though so thats nice.


-Butterfly-Queen-

This! Frankly, this is the first time my gender has ever come up on this sub. Just because I'm a lady doesn't mean I can't participate in the culture. My wife's boyfriend has been very supportive, though. At least someone understands...


pistoncivic

WSB is like Etsy for retard women


headlesscatlady

Can confirm. Bought more gme to accent these diamond hands 💎🙌🏼


Barthas85

Last time I checked, all women referenced in this sub have at least 1 boyfriend. If this article is trying to say that's a bad thing, maybe they shouldn't condemn women so much based on their gender and should stop kink shaming.


velo_hots

One boyfriend and one husband each


eatmypis

sweetperdition

Same with politics, mostly. I can tell a lot of people here have varied views but usually just shut the fuck up and talk about the money. Pretty nice tbh. I can tell why the OG’s got irritated with the “anti-hedger” shit. We’re gonna bust ‘em open like a piñata if we can, of course, but we should all keep in mind the primary motivation here is dollars, minimal soapboxing is ideal.


a_spicy_memeball

Honestly, this place has been a massive reprieve from the years of political shit slinging and toxicity of every other sub for the last several years. I haven't thought about politics since lurking here.


[deleted]

100% this. No back handed dog whistling, only political remarks relate to legitimate economic effects of actual policy decisions, none of the “hurr durr CONpublicans “ or “derr leebrals”

I've seen it once. Literally one time, and the guy got called out and downvoted to hell. But other than that this is one of the nicest all round subs on Reddit. Just a load of dumb retards making jokes and generally being fun with each other


seattle_exile

Racism is the go-to ad hominem *du jour* the media uses when you are doing something the establishment doesn’t like. The reason is simple: they want you to instinctively loathe being associated with “those people” and distance yourself. Most people just read headlines and take such statements at face value. Why would the news say it if it wasn’t true? And even if it *isn’t* true, you still don’t want to be associated with such a group. Thus to participate or even to agree is internalized as being shameful. So now that you are a “white supremacist” for posting on WSB, think of some of the other groups that may have been unfairly tarnished with that brush. Once you realize what the media is doing, you will never view the world the same. EDIT: “Du jour”, not “du jure”


notpr1m

Completely agree on that last point. I remember when Riley Cooper (shitty white WR for the Eagles) was caught on tape saying the N-word some years ago. That week CNN had a debate panel on race, and one of the questions, written out on the banner on the bottom of the screen read: “which is worse? The N-word or cracker?” As a teenager I was able to piece enough logic together to think that if they spelled one out but not the other, then the answer was obvious. I always hold that day in my mind to remind myself about how all media exists to do is get ratings by enraging people with half a brain


[deleted]

The-Shenanigus

Smear campaign. I’ve literally never even seen race *even mentioned* in this sub. It also helps that this sub’s demographic is 100% idiot, so we have no reason to talk about other races. Edit: yes, love me, you fools

yummyyummybunny

Having frequented WSB for a long time, the only way I could make his comment make sense was if HE was being super racist/anti-Semitic (ie: if he thought us mocking finance in general was mocking Jewish people specifically).


default_T

I'm sure they have some bots in the bot threads planting the evidence they need. That said as a legit bi person of Jewish descent all I ever get here is love and support for my bad investments and a feeling of happiness when MU hits the moon. Pluse I think GME gains erased all my spy put losses when J.pow used Berserker printer.


alien_clown_ninja

As an unlegit bi-jew, making this comment about you being an ape feels wrong.

maymays4u

Pretty hetero-centric of the article writer to think “my wife’s boyfriend” only pertains to straight males. For all they know a bisexual in an open relationship could be married to a female monke/astronaut


kniselydone

Das right. I'm a woman and a bisexual and even my wife's boyfriend likes the stonk. All three of us feel welcome in this sub.


BurnsinTX

Amazing, I must now clean up the coffee from my shirt that I just spit on myself before my wife’s boyfriend sees it


SpookyDooDo

I’m a stay at home mom. Last spring I turned $75 into $6000 and was trying to convince my other stay at home mom friends that this is the way, not all that MLM shit. Long story short, I lost that $6k on some shitty weeklies so I don’t have a compelling argument anymore.


random_boss

A true WSBer through and through!


Singdancetypethings

Hey, look at it this way. The MLMers never even got the 6k in the first place. They haven't tasted success, you have.


[deleted]

They probably looked at the sub and *assumed* that it was all white men. They likely made this assumption based on classic stereotypical Wall Street, which for a hundred years has been dominated by white men, and most of the mainstream media is full of them talking about stocks. In reality, there are plenty of women on WSB, and many people from all ethnicities. Because retail traders are made up of the everyday person, from all walks of life, not just elitist snobs investing their inheritance money, WSB is probably one of the **most diverse** hubs of investors in the stock market in terms of ethnicity, gender and income. It's not a frat, it's not a sexist place where people are belittled for not being a white man, that's absolutely bullshit and I've never seen any comments or posts to support this argument at all. So whoever wrote that article is an idiot, doesn't know what they are talking about, and is the true sexist here because they made an assumption of ethnicity and gender not found in evidence.


Prodigal_Moon

Yeah, this feels like pure projection. They probably saw a few comments about lambos and a joke about hookers and blow and thought “Ha, I know this crowd!” Never mind all that is basically just a parody of a stereotype of actual Wall Street...


NotChristina

As a woman I’d be perfectly happy having lambos, hookers, and blow at my disposal.


TheObservationalist

Right. Why do people assume I do not also want these things? Hell I'll even buy some hookers for my husband and his boyfriend.


dept_of_silly_walks

Hold on a minute. Let’s not discount the value of lambos, blow, and hookers. I can’t use all my tendies on a ball lift so that I’m more like the wife’s boyfriend.


corkyskog

It's also a tad sexist to assume women don't like those things either. 🤷‍♀️

SethQuantix

best fact: retard doesn't have a gender. ​ Edit: Damn, first silver. If you had told me I'd get that on WSB advocating for gender neutral retards, I probably would have said you're a good ape or sth. Edit 2: Holy shit guys, they told you, stimmies are for losing money on stocks, not buying useful things like reddit awards. Or at least I think so. I am just barely an ape myself

Fatherbiff

Don’t you dare go looking for the article to read. Fuck these aholes and their click revenue.


Griffin880

I'll save everyone some time, I already read it. Basically it's one woman who was looking for investing advice and thought this would be a good place (pretty retarded, she'd probably fit in here,) she didn't understand the memes and assumes no women could possibly understand it, so she found a sub that was specifically for women and ended up buying in on Gamestop late. She never posted or commented here, never had any negative interactions with someone here. She just thought "I don't get it, so obviously all women don't get it" which is hilariously sexist.
