TD literally was a breeding ground for incel hardcore altright racists and nothing was done about it.

What's TD?

The donald. The breeding ground for the disgusting republicans we have now.

It was more like a localized colony or infestation. The NRA, the Church, and FOX are the mother hives. You've got to get the nest, otherwise you'll be running around stomping them out everywhere without ever getting rid of them.

Wasn't it banned? That feels like more than "nothing"

Yes. In 2020. After raiding other subs.
Not because they broke any laws or were racist. Just TOS shit.
If you then claim that reddit did anything to combat the alttight uprising i have a bridge to sell you.

I think they tried to allow for almost any uprising on every side. It's good for business. And what's good for business is good for their Chinese investors.
