    There was conjecture that the FBI wanted Reddit to leave The Donald intact because it created an easy to track community of violent extremists. I’m guessing those who posted threats of violence on there are still under some kind of surveillance. One can hope, anyway.

      Sounds like the ATF providing guns to the cartel under the guise of tracking. They’re creating a demand for their services.

        Encouraging Reddit to leave a forum open allowing potential violent criminals to post their plans is like “providing guns” and “creating a demand”? You’d have to twist yourself into a pretzel to come up with that.

          Aren’t Republicans suing right now because of government manipulating social media? Guess it was OK when they were keeping the nazi recruiters open.

      Would they all just have moved to truth social now?
