But Wells Fargo unlawful behavior!” says Robin’s caption, to which Batman vehemently replies, “We only care about FTX.” The meme’s commenter, Garlinghouse, expressed anger that the FTX scandal’s degree of outrage had not been matched by the record-breaking penalties recently imposed against Wells Fargo for its years-long maltreatment of consumers.

With a history of more than ten years, it is becoming clear that Wells Fargo is one of the worst-managed large banks in America, with a plethora of complaints coming from both customers and workers.

Sam Bankman-Fried has been charged with a crime by Bahamian prosecutors, who claim that he was instrumental in keeping investors and the general public in the dark about the collapse of the cryptocurrency exchange FTX earlier this year. Bankman-Fried is charged with securities fraud, wire fraud, and money-laundering.
