They are just playing the wall street slot machine with their pervasive bet that a stock is going to go down. Then when it does the (generally institutional) player makes a nice return for the shareholders at the expense of the companies that they short.
It is quite a strange "investment" as it is generative on the degeneration of something else. Rather than investing into something that adds value and grows, this seems counter-productive to what we would consider good for society.
Community Trading might become regulated and taxed, but I suspect that the genie is far enough from the bottle that it won't entirely go back.
I hope the genie is out. Then, I hope that the wealth the community has generated gets put into crypto. Have the hedge funds finance the move :)
