U.S. opinion on Reddit users driving GameStop stock prices up 2021, by income
According to a January 2021 survey of internet users in the United States, the opinion the respondents held over the Reddit community involved did not change dramatically depending on their household income. Overall, respondents of all incomes were likely to see the Reddit users involved as "heroes" more than "villains." However, respondents with a higher household income were more likely than others to see the group of individuals involved as "heroes," with close to three in ten holding this position.
