This is the thing, though. Downvote me or whatever, but that is literally exactly what happened. I'm not lying. Believe it or not, I don't give a frick. But, that is exactly what happened. You do realize that it's possible to have extremists on both sides of the political spectrum, right?

yeah ok chief. i've been on there off and on for 2 years and NOTHING remotely like that has ever been posted. its a cheering squad for the military, law enforcement, etc.

but go ahead & buy into the fake narrative that suddenly the nazis at t_d showed their true colors and have secretly wanted to kill Oregon cops.

this would be laughable if it weren't used as an excuse to silence the biggest pro-Trump sub (Trump had an AMA on there once)

keep telling yourself it was those dastardly alt-righters!

eta and enjoy a downvote.

Of course there are. There are plenty of anarchists and conspiracy theorists who have started calling themselves "conservatives" simply because we have a much much longer leash for free speech than the other side. The moderator of The_Donald went into detail about how much they clean up on the sub. But if they lost their moderation power....

Also, I don't doubt that Lefties were going on there and posting crazy crap to try to get the sub tanked. Call me conspiratorial.
