If you mean that posts that don't align with the hivemind get downvoted to the point of being hidden, then yes, that is true. It's how reddit's voting system works.

In the short term, it is possible for mob mentality to take over, but in the long term, you will see this fade and WSB will return to a point where there's a little (but not much) more nuance to the conversation.

If you meant that "the forum" as in "the moderators" delete things that do not align with the echo chamber, then you are incorrect. On an absolute basis, more pro-"meme stock" content is removed than anti-"meme stock". You can verify this yourself with PRAW, or simply by refreshing /new.

SEC may come after you - be warned, there is precedent. For example here is one: https://www.seclaw.com/15messageposter92000/

yeah that explains why some high profile reddit accounts posting on r/wallstreetbets have started to deactive themselves.

I wouldn't be surprised if SEC has been archiving r/wallstreetbets. Actually they might not need to as it is impossible to delete your comment history.

I predict that we may see lot of people get penalized and perhaps even jail time for pumping up meme stocks, although it will take years.

Reddit has all comment history, dms, emails and ip addresses just as a routine measure.
