    I can’t remember which one, but there were a couple filled with crypto millionaire-wannabes with a libertarian slant that would share tips that always seemed off. And people in the comments would be so sure that THIS time it would be the big break if people just “hodl” or shorted a stock but were literally thousands in debt for investing everything in Truth Social. It wasn’t r/wallstreetbets but it rose shortly after r/thedonald fell. That’s all I remember because it felt like staring into the sun. *shudder*

      Also r/detrans. What an enormous shithole full of people with awful takes and a conscious stream of hate. It had a huge slant against science and parroted misinfo about the human body and society, always punching down on trans folks, though they pretended not to. I know a few of them were detransitioners, but I’m convinced that the entire sub was planted by some conservatwat to rally hate.
