if the SEC actually tries something like that, do we think there could be any unrest? Given that something like two million people have poured into r/WSB and I assume a significant fraction of those have put some money into all this?

Biden and Trump are traitors to America.
Imagine being shocked about the fact of greed, corruption, and abuse of power in government.
The media is a propaganda tool fueling the two parties hyperpartisanship and killing the country, it's time to end the "freedom of the press"
Violence against the government is and should be accepted by the people, especially when said government wants to and is actively stripping away your constitutional rights.

Never forget there's a big difference between Wall Street and Las Vegas: Las Vegas is regulated. If you have a net positive position today on GME you should sell tomorrow. Buy on the rumor, sell on the news.
