    Exactly. r/thedonald started as a tiny joke sub started by 4Chan that wasn’t dealt with until it became a festering cesspool of hate that became big enough to be a serious problem, brigading other subs and spreading hateful rhetoric. It has to be nipped in the bud and made clear that it is not welcome.
