> Migration was common, both to similar subreddits (i.e. overtly racist ones) and tangentially related ones (r/The_Donald). Tangentially-related? I'm pretty sure this crosses the line of being tangentially-related to racism. https://i.redd.it/ua1ukmoi8ls21.jpg https://i.redd.it/ua1ukmoi8ls21.jpg

Congratulations, you found a few idiots amongst 700.000+ people.

  This screenshot is about half a month old. I've just opened two of these at random and they both still post in t_d. If it were a few idiots, they'd be easy to ban. I've moderated a controversial sub for years and I guarantee you that a few idiots are easy to ban way before they reach the stage in which they're comfortable with posting shit like this. They know that they won't face any consequences.

  If you think this kind of thing is hard to find on /r/The_Donald, you've either never visited it or are (possibly willfully) in denial.

As someone that’s heard the president talk it really is hard to say tangentially related.

  "Race" is a pre-scientific term. It means whatever people want it to mean. Language is funny that way.

You realize anyone can post anything on reddit? I could go to /r/SandersForPresident and LARP as a violent communist revolutionary, right this moment if I wanted to.

  You could, but you wouldn't get 40 upvotes.

  Yes, you could. You'd probably receive a ban instantly, not have people engaging with you and upvoting you. You'd certainly not be able to do that for weeks (since some of these I've opened at random still post in t_d). I don't know who you're trying to fool by claiming this shit isn't common on t_d, but you're not fooling anyone.
