Nobody's coming for the Trump Supporters.
They did not play by the rules that all voluntary users of a private website agree to abide by.
They are still free to support Trump on other sub reddits, are if banned from reddit they still have the rest of the internet to play in.
- khawkins 7y agoNearly the entire subreddit is playing by the rules. If the actions of a minuscule percentage of anonymous social media accounts can result in the destruction of entire political forums, then this establishes a dangerous precedent. You can silence opposition groups by planting false flags and spreading infighting, hatred, and violence in their communities. It seems like the sub /r/ChapoTrapHouse seems to claiming they did just this. We don't want a world where opposition groups are regularly trying to astroturf calls for violence in the other group. This guarantees escalation; some of these calls will be carried through.
- jrace 7y agoThe rules state no calls for violence. that subreddit called for violence regularly.
