Reddit’s “The_Donald” group claims 740,000 subscribers, or “patriots,” as they call themselves. This raucous corner of the internet is home to all things wonderful about Trump and tends to get slammed by critics as toxic to the public discourse.
From Islamophobia and misogyny to disinformation and propaganda, the group is often called out for violating Reddit’s rulebook. Yet, even as more sites have been purged across social media, “The_Donald” is still going strong.
But why? Let former Reddit CEO Ellen Pao explain it:
‘The fear that platform employees have of their users drives a lot of decision making in ways you don’t expect. My guess is that there’s a lot of fear of people who are running and using The_Donald. It’s not a subreddit that is following the rules or should actually be there.’
As she told Mother Jones in a recent interview, beyond the fear of backlash from users, it boils down to a business decision. “It’s hard to take down a subreddit which is driving a lot of traffic,” she said.
Meanwhile, current CEO Steve Huffman has been roundly slammed for allowing the group, which hails Trump as “God emperor,” to stand. Last year, Huffman elaborated as to why racism doesn’t violate Reddit rules.

There isn’t one of them who actually believes in free speech, and there never has been.
“Liberal fascists are attacking conservatives on every front. They SYSTEMATICALLY shut down every startup to rival Big Tech, the mainstream media or even private individuals who are having an influence.”
Doesn’t matter to our resident Libertarian lunatics at FR. These morons are incapable of recognizing that we’re at war and they cheer on the fascists and communists in social media, as long as they can can thump their breasts and annoint themselves as constitutional purists. They’d much rather see America fall than admit they’re full of leftist, libertarian crap.
In pre-WWII Germany, in order to segregate population/demographics, and to elevate the German people to “The Master Race”, and socialism as the higher form of humanistic governance, it was necessary to force a no holds barred effort to eradicate the idea of God. Evolution had to be universally enforced and Christianity relentlessly ridiculed.
Secondly, there had was a near universal academic, media (radio and press), and entertainment effort to ridicule or mock any who did not confirm. Like today, the press and radio (media establishment), worked to eliminate any and all discent.
Naturally, the next phase saw the full on effort and attack of any and all businesses believed to be supportive of any enemy of the humanistic, no moral boundaries, socialist state.
The next phase in the US will see much more proactive dishonesty from all left-wing entities and proponents of no moral boundaries, and much more violent steps taken to silence those who love God, liberty, our Constitution, and the existence of a U.S. which represents such a purpose.
It really is like Germany before. Jews and practicing Christians, those who espouse real justice, morality, liberty, and the sovereignty to impliment them, will always be the enemy of those who seek a world without God, no moral boundaries, and a sovereign totalitarian global government.
DARPA was involved in a bunch of this also.
Or how about “dissent” in place of “discent”.
A modicum of commonsense.
I didn’t know there were places to hang out beyond FR

“Racist... Because they used a Green Frog to mock Hillary.”
I’m a 4 Chan and 8 Chan alpha member. We have FAR...FAR WORSE names for Hitlery and Obamatard and that Chewbacca ‘wife” of his.
The_Donald rocks.
If it still exists, it might actually catch on in the current climate.
The deranged Red Guards parrott Ellen Pao had her 15 minutes of infamy when she tried to sue her way back into Kleiner Perkins, one of the most successful VC firms in the world.
She's basically an unhinged Leftist Chinese racist who thinks she should be in charge of the entire Western world since she's Asian and us filthy Caucasians owe it to her.
As a VC she was a total failure, just a martinet who couldn't pick a winner if they ran over her at the finish line. So they fired her.
Now she's making noise again for attention and $$$.
Someone else brought up Freestarter, the Patreon alternative liberal financial institutions AND Big Tech shut down. When you can’t collect money via Paypal or Mastercard, hard to stay in business. When the Freestartr page is blacklisted on the internet and people can’t easily share their campaigns, they can’t raise money.
Would you consider Freerepublic similar to Usenet?
Reddit is full of cucked white liberal soy boys that only know group think.
No. Usenet is/was unmoderated and divided into newsgroups. No one could get banned or suspended.
It is not a news aggregator so much as FR is.
It is divided into newsgroups. The group Alt.current-events.clinton.whitewater got to be a bit of a player, rating a write up in the London Telegraph.
Fun times.
Here is the thread on Reddit’s The_Donald sub (which I love to read through) https://www.reddit.com/r/The_Donald/comments/bjwj2q/former_reddit_ceo_ellen_pao_says_trump_reddit/
From woman who slept, sued, and cry bullied her way to where she is.
Correct, and its worse than that.
You ought to. They really have a fun spirit over there and it's a positive and energetic place to be. You don't get any of the "woe-is-me-all-is-lost" negativity that often creeps into this place. Try that over there and they will chase you off pretty quick. They love our president, love our country and make no apologies for it.
