Want to see something really scary?

This is an archive link to an active thread on T_D right now, one that keeps getting deleted. It's safe to view the archive of it that I linked to.

Here is a T_D subscriber who posted a popular thread back in early October, about Hannity covering the Podesta emails and he was clearly using our research in his story on Fox News. It gained lots of views and was on r/all. When the guy who posted it woke up, he saw that he was banned in some subreddit he had never heard of, a computer programming sub. He's not a programmer at all. He asks about it by messaging one of the mods there, and is told he was banned for posting a link to a computer virus. This guy knows nothing of it, tells them he didn't do it, and they suggest his computer has a virus that must have done it. Thing is, it's a Windows virus and he's got a Mac.

So he shrugs it off and forgets about it. But it dawned on him today that the most likely thing was some admin at reddit used his account to post that up so that they would have a reason to outright ban him, as punishment for him driving awareness site-wide that the Podesta email leak has some super damaging stuff. Keep in mind, this is right after the "pu$$y grabbing" audio and Hillary supporters certainly didn't want the narrative to change away from that.

Essentially we have proof that what we most feared from the reddit admins, who showed they would edit their database to change our posts without leaving a trace, will also post using our account stuff that is very bad.

It's simply incredible and frankly a bit terrifying.

We have contingency plans in place, I'm not sure what they are (secret for now) but their twitter feed will tell us where to go when it comes to that point. Thing is, reddit is the 7th most popular US site on the web. Voat has perhaps 0.001% as many page views.

I'm continually amazed that people get so emotionally invested in some politician that they have never even met or talked to directly that they would be willing to go to such unethical/immoral lengths. Or, even get to the point of tears if the politician doesn't get elected.

I'll be the first to admit my life is pretty empty and unfulfilling but I've never once considered hitching my identity to someone (or some party) like that. Doing research and debating about their background, ideas, policies and the like is one thing but these people are on a completely different and weird level.

I'm following the Twitter link too. Too bad we have to stay at the shitty Reddit place.

I get what you mean, but people could say the same about Trump supporters. Why are some so invested in Trump winning?

Well, you see, there were a lot of people like me who realized that if Hillary won this election, it was over. This was it. I could go on and on about the why and where but these are the three main reasons:

1. She would appoint 1 to 4 SC justices. Most likely 3 or 4. They would be of the progressive socialist globalist variety.

2. She would have doubled-down on letting 3rd world "migrants" pour in, 80% who would be life-long reliable democrat voters. And they would overwhelm our welfare system (as if it isn't already.) This is the Cloward-Piven strategy that Obama and Hillary fully ascribe to. It would be impossible to elect a conservative anything to a national office for two or three generations.

3. Our country would be sold to the lowest bidder to the globalists. In 30 years we'd be a 50th rate shithole.

So that's why a bunch of us said "We got to win this thing." You may see it as silly. We sure didn't.

I agree, but really it's only super important that we stay on reddit until Jan. 20th and he's inaugurated. They are still trying to steal the election, we can't let up. Must stay as visible as possible. Once that milestone is passed, we really don't need T_D anymore, other offshoots can be made in a variety of places.

I've already seen a report of Jen Palmieri starting shit so Trump will have a difficult time and/or get impeached. What slimy characters those folks are. They got beat at their own game and now can't stand it. Just slime.

I know, while I was responding to the current issue, I was careful not to call out a particular party.

I won't debate the merits of a Trump presidency... I did choose him over Clinton for many of the reasons listed. Plus, I just plain ol' didn't like Clinton's (and her followers') attitude against "deplorables" and the road that attitude would lead us down.

I don't think (nor did I ever say) the "We have to win this thing" attitude is silly. It's the "We need to cry, lie, cheat, oppress others' opinions to win this thing" attitude coupled playing the victim and throwing a tantrum because one's candidate didn't win that I am referring to.

Nope. I can say that w/out being legally prosecuted.

Like I said, their site, their rules.
Reddit is a site that allows extreme porn, Marxist subreddits dedicated to the overthrow of the US government, pedo chat, on and on and on. But a subreddit devoted to promoting Trump for president is literally too much for them.

Dude, I'm on The_Donald like 95% of the time, r/golf 2%, r/videos 3%. That's pretty much it. It's also about 50 billion times more active than here.
