Stonk Wars Unites Star Wars Fandom

Reddit users with diametrically opposed views of Star Wars have found common ground in the frenzy surrounding shares of GameStop. Amazingly, legions of sequel-hating fans from r/SaltierThanCrait are exchanging awards and positive mojo with Disney apologists from r/StarWars at r/WallStreetBets.

“Today was the first day in 4 years that I didn’t downvote FakingStarWars or report them to the mods,” said long-time Star Wars Redditor, PomojemaSWNN. “I actually gave them some gold.”

The very public battle between hedge fund managers and private investors has even attracted dank members of r/prequelmemes. Battalions of their finest meme warriors are using humor to entertain and encourage millions of Redditors to “STAY STRONG 🚀 🚀 🚀 🚀 🚀 🚀 🚀 🚀 🚀 🚀🌕💎💎💎💎💎💎💎🤲”


It remains to be seen whether the unofficial armistice between Star Wars subreddits continues beyond the current Stonk Wars. In any case, a huge thank you to GameStop for inadvertently bringing the fandom together. Shout out to Pomo for the gold, too.
