Has anyone checked out the_donald, the pro Trump subreddit?

[Kablooie]

They worship him like he's a god.
And they are unbelievably arrogant and so gleefully cock sure that they are 100% right and everyone else is wrong.

It's like John Cleese said:
Blessed are the stupid, for their confidence makes them so easy to spot

1. Why promote their webpage?

This isn't helping anyone.

9. Why?

Do you really think one of us will read that crap and suddenly say Wow I want to be trump supporter. Reading those comments only cement my feelings. THEY ARE IDIOTS!!!

10. It's not promoting

Unless your view is any discussion of anything is a promotion of that thing. What a quiet world we would live in if that were so.

2. They also took over the conspiracy forum - people are pissed becasue it used to be fun.

Now it's nonsense about BO and HRC 24/7.

I'm getting a big kick out of the Neoliberal
Forum, I have to say that though I live resist, neoliberal is pretty funny right now.

3. It's reddit...

I post in R/fantasy - generally tame and well moderated by sensible people, visited by successful authors regularly, and really one of the best resources for fantasy readers on the Internet, yet it still turns into a sewer at the merest mention of women, gays or minorities.

4. Yeah it's filled w bitter young men- the XX chromosome forum

Became a default Reddit and while women do try and use it to discuss things, it's filled with idiot boys and men constantly asking for proof sexist shit ever happens. They're some sad ass men on reddit.

5. Cleese is a very wise man

because there's nothing like abysmal stupidity to confer boundless enthusiasm and self confidence.

6. It is also trolled with a mission.

7. Are we sure they're not Russian bots? n/t

8. Good point! Some probably are. (nt)

[mucifer]

11. Just realize most of reddit does not have that opinion. Go to r/politics

https://www.reddit.com/r/politics/ see what they are discussing. It's liberal. It has 3 million subscribers. It's the general politics page. I have found interesting articles there that I have posted on DU. It's a good resource.

12. Don't go there...

Just don't. That place is a cesspool.

[ogsball]

13. I got kicked off of it . . .

. . . trying to reason with people.

As part of the notification of my banning, I got a very weird e-mail insulting my family.

14. "The God Emperor"?

These people are unbelievably stupid and insane just like the pig they worship.
