First they came for r/The_Donald, Steven Crowder and Ben Shapiro and … wait a minute, no they came for everyone else over the past two years while these guys sat around ignoring the problem:

r/The_Donald is now quarantined on Reddit.



It doesn’t come up in search results.



I don’t think it’s a coincidence that this happened on the eve of the Democratic debates. pic.twitter.com/OBVP5z6HCs — Lauren Chen (@TheLaurenChen) June 26, 2019

Reddit’s largest (and only, if we’re being honest) pro-Trump community, r/The_Donald, has been quarantined ahead of the Democrat debates.

The official reasoning Reddit gives for quarantining The_Donald is “threats of violence against police and public officials.”



First, The_Donald is likely one of the most Pro-LEO communities on the internet. It’s pretty clear that Reddit is just slandering us with that alone. 1/7 — /r/The_Donald (@thedonaldreddit) June 26, 2019

Any threats toward public officials, rare as they may be, have been actively removed by moderators forever. Again, pure lies by Reddit.



Why were we actually quarantined, then?



We played a large part in spreading @Project_Veritas‘ Google censorship story. 2/7 — /r/The_Donald (@thedonaldreddit) June 26, 2019

The story that lit a fire under big-tech leftists to make good on what was said in the video (while denying it). Reddit admins removed the story claiming it violated the mysterious TOS, and banned both Project Veritas’ subreddit and company account. 3/7 — /r/The_Donald (@thedonaldreddit) June 26, 2019

But The_Donald is where the story got attention on Reddit, and likely elsewhere. They couldn’t let that stand. They already largely censored The_Donald from reaching the front page, but apparently that wasn’t enough. So they began looking for any reason to quarantine us. 4/7 — /r/The_Donald (@thedonaldreddit) June 26, 2019

This post https://t.co/9KLtBuXxdo about the standoff in Oregon was apparently their saving grace. The link provided displays removed comments, so you can see just how numerous the comments threatening the police are(n’t). In fact, we have far fewer than one post per day 5/7 — /r/The_Donald (@thedonaldreddit) June 26, 2019

out of hundreds of thousands that the admins feel the need to remove. Tough work.



Their given reasoning falls apart with the slightest bit of scrutiny. 6/7 — /r/The_Donald (@thedonaldreddit) June 26, 2019

Two things to notice. This happened immediately after Media Matters called for T_D to be shut down, and it’s the eve of the first Democratic Debates.



Put two and two together. 7/7 — /r/The_Donald (@thedonaldreddit) June 26, 2019

Media Matters led the charge for censorship.
