They have a twitter with deleted crypto retweets.

They run this sub which is some gamer sub for LoL.

Some posts in there are suspicious, they allow posts attacking lgbt people

They post quite obviously negatively about fatphobia

They post explicitly transphobic things, they call people "soyboys".

They use the term sigma and beta A LOT.

Calls people deg*nerates

Haha +socialcredit points!

Has financebro posts.

More financebro shit

There's even more financebro shit I can't be bother screening because I'm getting bored of looking at this account.

I do not think this subreddit should be promoted in any way whatsoever, and I really think it should be actively fought against.

    So you would say a defense lawyer for Exxon Mobile does not work in the oil industry? I'm sorry, but do you know what industries are? They are composed of corporate bodies. Support and ancillary workers still work in the primary industry that is driving revenue for their corporate firm. Anyone who works for Exxon Mobil at any level is employed in the oil industry. Anyone who works for Wells Fargo at any level is employed in the banking industry. Anyone who works for GEICO at any level is employed in the Insurance industry.

      That's working in law for the oil sector. It's still working in law. There are certainly degrees of good/bad to it. But characterising it as working in law is how I do it.

      Anyone who works for Wells Fargo at any level is employed in the banking industry.

      Nah that's bollocks mate. The cleaners at Wells Fargo aren't "working in finance". They work in cleaning, that happens to be in/for a financial institution. There is more nuance to this than you are allowing for. You can not tell me that you think cleaners in a bank work in finance.

        If those cleaners are employed by Wells Fargo, yes they are support staff for bankers. If they are a cleaning firm that is paid for as a service by Wells Fargo, they are in the janitorial industry. The source of the value is the industry. The janitorial staff at Wells Fargo are supporting staff who make profit from banking, they are in the banking industry.

          But you concede they do not work in finance.

            It depends where their paycheck comes from. If it comes from value generated via banking they work in the banking industry as janitors. This is how labor is measured by governments and by economists and even by Marx. Trade unions are within singular firms, industrial unions is the union of trade unions within an industry. Your firm determines your industry. The source of the firms profits is the industry. It's scientific and concrete.

              Nah we're just going to have to disagree then. The labour of the worker takes priority here. If you don't work with the financial instruments and products themselves you are not in finance. Sure you might be in a supporting role to it. But you're not in it.

                ok but you are scientifically incorrect and your definition is arbitrary and will set you at odds with how most economists, including Marx and marxian ones, discuss this. Have fun trying to create an "industrial union" without a coalition of trade unions. Random people cherrypicked from all firms, randomly selected by your arbitrary line drawing instead of just all staying in the firm they are in and the source of their profits - which is concrete and not arbitrary

                  I don't care. Wasted my time because I'm too polite not to respond forcing me to argue over piss shit and balls when there's something worth having a fighting over there and it's the fuckers that are in the process of hijacking a movement ffs. Of course I'm frustrated with you and derailing this.
