    The word we carries so much weight that Brian Shaw would blush. When we beat them, it's because there's class consciousness that can help define the deep, empty alienation. It's clear that it exists when you feel ecstatic about a hedge fund going under. That viscera wouldn't exist if you had never been introduced to the idea that there is a class of people rigging the game. It doesn't take a lefty meme to convince people to jump on the gamestop train, they just get it. If not class, then who is the we that took on wall street? Unless they feel some supernatural connection to posters exclusive to r/wsb and believe they are solely responsible for the short squeeze, then we probably means that there is a side they are on. Apolitical is lazy and lacks introspection into what is right there in their face plain as day - who exactly is we? Whose interests are antithetical to we?
