The general rule in groups with reasonably intelligent discussion and community moderation, once a community consensus is reached on a topic, is that:
People who complain about groupthink are typically in the habit of doing #4 and then getting upset because they don't get easy validation of their opinions the way people who agree inarticulately do.
As an example on LW, consider Annoyance, who does both #2 and #4 with some regularity and gets wildly varying comment scores because of it.
