No bank can handle a bank run.

I don't know what really starts them, I guess.

Confidence?

Bank runs in the post-social-media world will spread, well... virally.

Let the meme wars begin for real. Let's get some bank runs going. Where those 4chan fuckers at when you need them? Boomers believe everything they read online.

Maybe check out your local laws and make sure your VPN is as good as you think. I think inciting bank runs is frquently illegal. But I think you have to get specific about which bank for it to be a problem.

I'd be happy to see the meme warriors make them pay here, but you're right, this is definitely beyond Clinton memes. If you threaten the money, even if you're the President, they're coming for you.

Its exactly the excuse they need to start a cbdc.

Yeahhhhhh. If nothing else, every time a bank shuts down, there's more consolidation. Eventually all commercial banks will be owned by 3 or 4 banks anyway, which just happens to be the same banks that are the shareholders to the federal reserve.
