Absolutely Not Kidding — The Trump campaign and his picks for Cabinet are very much like /r/The_Donald, which was spun up by an MRA & 2 years into his administration, was collaborating with literal neoNazis to try to take over the site from the bottom, running off all other subreddit moderators

june (@junlper.bsky.social):

they're calling the second trump term the most "reddit" administration in history

Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):

Some of what I've written before about T_D

Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):

In 2018 the lead operators of /r/the_donald had a backroom / private coordination subreddit with the leads of /r/cringeanarchy and /r/metacanada, where their first order of business was to harass "anti-white racist" subreddit moderators off the service.

(the approved users include /r/gendercritical)

I have said it before an I will say it again —

This is due to the "market reaction" to the rampant, virulent antisemitism, islamophobia, misogyny, queerphobia and open White Identity Extremism in /r/the_donald for four years, while Reddit did nothing.

The GOP dropped all pretense b/c of Trumpism.

Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):

A major factor for why "anti-white racism" has picked up speed with the "New Right" is because there were no consequences for open White Identity Extremism under Donald Trump.

The /r/The_Donald subreddit platformed multiple posts a week citing "anti-white racism"

Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):

And some evidence that the Russians were helping astroturf GOP hate messaging on Reddit, including anti-transgender hatred

Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):

In 2017, Reddit published a list of "suspicious" accounts which they believed to be operated by Russia's IRA to influence / manipulate the 2016 US election.

I dug through that list back then, & one stuck out to me as a "test balloon".

Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):

Everything we saw in the 2024 Trump campaign and now in his policies comes straight out of 2017 era /r/the_donald & Reddit hate subs
