my brain always tries to read BBBY as BBBlackberry because I still cannot conceptualize the mentality needed to not only get excited about ~~Buy Buy Baby~~ fucking Bed Bath & Beyond (I legitimately forgot which oversized waste of retail space these fuckers were obsessed with), but think that owning shares in it is an economy-shattering financial hack opposed only by the billionaires they claim to hate and yet cannot wait to become

Yeah called this dude out just the other day. Hes definitely a shill and his buddy wild gaselle is posting similar shit on another sub. All we can do is wait, all of the negativity is just that, negativity. If there weren’t so many ppl ready to crucify pulte and pp I might be nervous, but it’s insane how much hate they get. Very similar to DFV in his day.

this is what psychosis inflicted by capitalism sounds like, and I hope that one day we’re distant enough from the system that pushes folks into these thought patterns to prevent anyone else from being afflicted

Not far off, per Wikipedia

in 2007, [BB&B] acquired Buy Buy Baby, a chain of baby supply stores founded by Feinstein's sons

I agree though. It's not hard to imagine a crowd of mostly millennial redditor men get nostalgic for companies like Gamestop, AMC, Blockbuster or Blackberry, but I didn't exactly imagine them being a demographic big into a big box furniture and interior decoration store. Ikea, maybe.

Liberalism failed to end history after all, so anticapitalism is popular again. You don't have to be a leftist or even have a coherent political worldview at all to resent the billionare caste. "It should have been me" is more than good enough for many.

Not even furniture, really. It's more like sheet sets, comforters, bed skirts, faddish kitchen utensils, small cheap appliances, towels, toothbrush racks, etc.

I expect a lot of BBBY nuts are the "mattress on the floor with no fitted sheet" type, but they probably spend money on desk/chair and living room media furniture.
