I can see why shutting down far right wing extremist groups can be justified (or for that matter, far left wing extremists as well). But some folks meme'ing about stocks? Come on. Edit: If you're spewing hatred on me for some kind of retribution, shame on you. This isn't a place for that.

It turns out that handing the public square to centralized control ends badly. Who knew! You reap what you sow.
It's not "you reap what you sow" and you're not handing GP some funny "gotcha". It's just plain obvious decency.
Some people don't get that, and then they're surprised that most normal humans think it's suspicious, as if they don't get it on purpose. Then they get upset because they start to look like nazi sympathizers.
That is what "you reap what you sow" looks like.

"It's a private company, they can do what they want!"
I don't think the people who came up with that rule really accounted for one company becoming the main channel of communication for the human race.
People generally seem love to make excuses for Power when it's stepping on people they don't like, and are then somehow surprised when Power turns around and crushes them.
Just delete the group and say: "It violated our terms of service". That's probably also a lie, but at least it's a little less obnoxious.

If you don’t like it, build your own stock market.
It was fun when Trump was banned from Twitter, but now I’m mad about WSB!!
Orange man still bad. Most haven’t realized that the establishment used every trick in the book to install their preferred patsy. They will understand in time.
Not that this was your intent but wanted to comment on what I've seen a few places around the internet -
I've seen various comments online comparing this to Robinhood shutting down people's ability to buy certain stocks, or their clearinghouse forcing it, etc. I don't think they are comparable.
