Because TheDonald is a mix of racism, sexism , it's not a political view and it's affecting the whole site now.

Absolute free speech can have real consequences, here's a sad example from the Rwandan Genocide (copied from Wikipedia):

> The Power groups also believed that the national radio station, Radio Rwanda, had become too liberal and supportive of the opposition; they founded a new radio station, Radio Télévision Libre des Mille Collines (RTLMC), which broadcast racist propaganda, obscene jokes and music, becoming very popular throughout the country.[89] One study finds that approximately 10% of the overall violence during the Rwandan genocide can be attributed to this new radio station.

But the same can be said about the infamous "SRS" and yet the admins have taken zero actions against it.

[Melk]

SRS isn't on r/All 24/7. SRS doesn't fill up 90% of /rising. SRS is only "infamous" for being a deflector for criticism of far right subreddits. No one has heard from that subreddit for years.

There are much more active subreddits that side with SRS if you want to go there, like circlebroke. There are also much more extreme subreddits than the_donald, like TheNewRight. Nobody is talking about banning those subreddits. This isn't a partisan argument. The_Donald is (purposely) interrupting how reddit works. I'm not an American and I have no dog in this fight, but the_donald is ruining reddit for a lot of us.

SRS users are actively undermining and destroying other subreddits, either by infiltrating the mod team and gaining their trust, or abusing reddit's bureaucratic process and having the existing mods removed for inactivity.

This has been happening for years, and the admins are complicit in it. As far as 'ruining reddit' goes, SRS/SRD are among the worst offenders for sure.

Don't go to r/All?! (Or maybe adminst could "ban" it from r/all without banning it completely.)

[zyx321]

They drastically reduced the amount of articles from the same subreddit that can be on /r/all at the same time. The page used to be >90% Trump before the change (and >90% Sanders or >90% Obama during their respective campaigns, but of course the admins never bothered doing anything to stop that)

and >90% ron paul before Obamas rise

[wtbob]

Ah, but SRS is hate speech for a cause the reddit staff believe in, while other subreddits are hate speech for a cause the reddit staff don't believe in. Huge difference.

SRS also migrated to SRD, so they can stealth brigade subs with little backlash

[TazeTSchnitzel]

SRS is reddit's favourite bogeyman, but it is, and always has been, just a place that pokes fun at the rest of the site.

The admins aren't even on their side (their political leanings are assuredly different); SRS were just never as bad as people claim, and so the admins never had a reason to ban it.

[CptJamesCook]

There is no racism on the_donald. In fact, the sub prides itself on it's non-racist attitude.

[realusername]

Then they must be disillusioned because the sub is indeed racist.

A small extract from r/The_Donald:

> There are already loud voices saying Paris isn't Paris anymore, with more african/middle eastern faces than french ones, it's not surprising. (+124 points)

> So much cultural enrichment, how would our nation ever survive with out such multiculturalism and diversity? (+44 points)

> No mention of race or religion? Guess that only means one thing.

on another one:

> Arabic? Don't you mean Swedish?

I just took a random thread, there's probably 100s of others.

A trivial search finds this thread: https://m.reddit.com/r/The_Donald/comments/5dtubi/fuck_actua...

Even if you think whining about how liberals are treating Blacks laxly with affirmative action isn't racist, there's someone saying he favors people creating racially homogenous communities in the US.

[basch]

it's not hard to selectively represent a group.

look at them cheer for a samoan hindi woman, and openly mock the idea they are racist and sexist - https://www.reddit.com/r/The_Donald/search?q=tulsi&sort=top&...

(if you are looking at this post months in the future, you will probably need to remove the 'month' search restriction.)
