Sounds more like the SEC have found a bunch of worthless penny stocks they can use to justify some new rules and regulations that will also conveniently affect the stocks that have been all over the news without directly citing those stocks since that would surely cause an uproar.

They aren't new rules or new regulations.
U naive.
Sure, because what has been going on forever is the thing that just happened in the last month and not the age old scam.

Hey, saying that out loud, it sounds like maybe you’d be interested in a random penny stock I heard good things about!

This is an obnoxious answer to a valid point.
There aren't any new rules or regulations. It's a valid answer to an obnoxious "point"
you are referencing a sibling comment, not the parent.
Lammy claimed new rules and regulations, that's directly up thread, not a sibling comment.
Ding ding.
Yeah, it's like "yes we stopped GME being traded but also all these others, we aren't focussing on one stock here"
the sec didnt stop gme trading.
Yet, is my point. If they do then they can say "Gme is not a special case"
What an insane pivot from the factual inaccuracy of “the SEC stopped GME trading.” Just admit you had no idea what you were spewing and move on.
I won't because I understand what I said. If your reading comprehension is so poor that is the fault of your education.
The self-delusion required to think that any form of regulation is somehow an affront to your personal freedom is the hallmark of our broken society.
Regulations go against personal freedom by definition
Don’t confuse freedom with anarchy
