Moderators for the now-banned subreddit “r/The_Donald” have helped other subreddits with toxic content find a new home, using a backup forum created to circumvent previous Reddit restrictions. Although Reddit banned some of these subreddits this month, r/The_Donald and others have had ample time to prepare.
On June 29, Reddit announced that it was banning about 2,000 subreddits in an attempt to make its policy against hate speech more explicit. One of those banned forums is r/The_Donald, a pro-Trump subreddit known for spreading misinformation and bigoted content. The subreddit was quarantined in June 2019 by the platform following a Media Matters report on its users issuing calls to violence against law enforcement. In the months following the quarantine, the subreddit’s moderators created a backup forum called TheDonald.win, which they then promoted on r/The_Donald and which the subreddit’s users officially moved to earlier this year after a further crackdown from Reddit.
TheDonald.win is now extending its efforts beyond just providing space for users of r/The_Donald. Since June, and particularly since Reddit’s announcement, the moderators have helped launch new forums for multiple subreddits under the existing “.win” infrastructure. Thus far, the forums that have clear ties to the subreddits include:
-
A forum for “r/GreatAwakening,” a subreddit dedicated to the far-right QAnon conspiracy theory. The subreddit was banned in 2018 for violating Reddit rules on “inciting violence, harassment, and the dissemination of personal information.” In July, one of the moderators of TheDonald.win had urged the subreddit’s former moderators to contact them to create a new forum. One of the users on the forum wrote that “some mods from donald.win are helping us get up and running” and that “Im not sure if we would be here without them and their help.”
-
A forum for “r/GavinMcInnes” and “r/CensoredTV,” subreddits dedicated to Gavin McInnes, the founder of the far-right gang the Proud Boys, and his streaming platform censored.tv, respectively. The GavinMcInnes subreddit was banned earlier this year for “posting violent content.” While announcing the launch of the new forum, a moderator thanked TheDonald.win “for not only giving us a place, but letting us roll this out early.” McInnes has already promoted the new forum on the social media platform Parler.
-
A forum for “r/MetaCanada,” whose users, as Vice noted in 2017, “spend their time cheering the deaths of those who had the gall to be feminist (or simply not Islamophobic).”
-
A forum for “r/ConsumeProduct,” which was also banned on June 29 for hate speech. A moderator for the new forum when announcing its launch gave a “big special thanks to the The_Donald team for allowing us to be here.” A moderator for TheDonald.win wrote after r/ConsumeProduct’s ban, “We had started working with the /r/ConsumeProduct moderators to provide a new home for them at Win prior to their ban earlier today.”
-
A forum for “r/KotakuInAction,” a subreddit dedicated to Gamergate, a far-right online harassment campaign against women in gaming.
-
A forum for “r/KotakuInAction2,” another subreddit dedicated to Gamergate.
-
A forum for “r/WeekendGunnit,” the biggest subreddit for the extremist “boogaloo” movement; in response to the June subreddit bans, the subreddit voluntarily closed down and announced on Reddit its move to the “.win” community.
-
A forum for “r/conspiracy,” a conspiracy theory subreddit known for spreading anti-Semitism and popularizing the false Wayfair conspiracy theory. A moderator for the subreddit announced the launch of the new forum as a “back-up/contingency plan if r/conspiracy were censored or otherwise neutered.” And while announcing the new forum, a moderator for TheDonald.win called it “particularly exciting since it's a topic that many on The Donald have an existing interest in.”
-
A forum for “r/tucker_carlson,” a subreddit dedicated to the Fox News host who is known to be beloved by white nationalists. A moderator for the subreddit encouraged followers “to please make an account at our alternative location” and suggested the new forum was a backup in case the subreddit was banned.
-
The launches of these new forums suggest that Reddit’s delay in implementing its ban, particularly of r/The_Donald, seem to have come at a price, allowing the subreddit time to create a whole new platform with even fewer restrictions for some of Reddit’s more toxic spaces.
Calm down owly.
looking into it.
Mockingbird Media reports already calling this a "Russian" hack (51 min)
Also check out based reporter at 58 min who drops her mask and asks about Antrim County audit AND the 2018 executive order on election interference.
haha fuck off
haha the madman retweeted! Lin Wood is a man on a mission.
The CEO of Dominion Voting Systems, a voting machine and software company, will answer questions from legislators in Michigan on Tuesday.
It will be the first time John Poulos has answered questions since the Nov. 3 election, which saw 28 states use Dominion products.
Poulos could face questioning about an audit released Monday that concluded Dominion’s system “is intentionally and purposefully designed with inherent errors to create systemic fraud and influence election results.”
Data firm Allied Security Operations Group examined machines and software in Antrim County this month, saying Dominion products were to blame for the infamous vote flip that occurred in the county.
According to a brief agenda from the Michigan legislature, Poulos will give a presentation during the Senate Oversight Committee hearing at the Capitol Building in Lansing at 1 p.m.
State Sen. Edward McBroom, a Republican, chairs the committee. McBroom and a clerk didn’t respond to requests for more information.
State Rep. Matt Hall, a Republican who chairs the Michigan House Oversight Committee, originally requested Dominion send representatives to answer questions from lawmakers.
When he received no response, he threatened to subpoena Poulos, according to a letter obtained by The Epoch Times.
Poulos then wrote to McBroom, saying a company representative could testify on “the continuing malicious and widespread disinformation campaign” against Dominion.
"I appreciate the opportunity to correct the baseless and defamatory claims being made about our systems. They are harmful not only to Dominion, but also to the countless hardworking election officials across the state, as well all Michigan public officials elected through a fair process,” Poulos said in the letter.
Dominion representatives have been sought for questioning by lawmakers in other battleground states.
The company committed to sending employees to answer questions from legislators in Pennsylvania last month but backed out, citing “threats of litigation.”
Arizona Senate Judiciary Chairman Eddie Farnsworth, a Republican, announced during an election oversight hearing on Monday that he would issue subpoenas requiring Dominion machines in Maricopa County be audited.
“There is evidence of tampering, there is evidence of fraud,” he said.
Hall said in a statement last week that he was aware of reports about software issues causing irregularities to occur.
“Representatives of the people must be able to ask officials at Dominion questions in order to provide clarity and restore faith in our elections process,” he said.
“Dominion has finally agreed to testify publicly next week. It’s about time,” added Michigan House Speaker Lee Chatfield, a Republican. “We need to get to the bottom of these accusations and hear from them.
All mail ballots in Clark county were counted first by running them through a digital scanner. If the scanner cannot read the ballot or determine the voter's intent, the ballot is sent to an adjudication or application team, both of which are overseen by a bipartisan election board.
County elections officials have said about 70 percent of ballots are sent to be reviewed by election officials.
Yesterday, the Michigan Voting Machine forensics report was released due to a judge order.
Incredible that it took a judge to get us this crucial information, and there are actual human beings that tried to prevent it from getting out.
Hear ye hear ye!
21 upvotes and 0 downvotes after 8 hours...we're doing OK :)
not sure, I'll look into it.
Me? I really like it, which is why I helped this project along.
both DNC and GOP had electors cast votes so they will be contested.
Pennsylvania too:
"The conditional resolution states that electors certify their votes for President and Vice President... "
Pennsylvania & Georgia have taken formal votes to send Electors for President Trump, giving rise to a potential scenario of "dueling slates of Electors."
meh, I've known some of the mods on the team for 10+ years. A few I definitely trust and their hearts are in the right place.
They're trying to preserve /r/conspiracy but it's becoming a fool's errand.
