I am sure there is a lot of cross traffic between here and thedonald.win, myself included, although I only lurk there. I've been lucking since before the 2016 election, before reddit even banned the original subreddit.
Since the election there has been a huge number of election fraud posts, and while some of them certainly seem to have merit, there are plenty that don't. As a consequence I see posts that call for "low energy pedes" to leave, or Republicans (that aren't Trump supporters) to leave, etc. I fear that the signal to noise ratio is too low, and it makes it too easy for the MSM to ignore.
I have my own theories about what happened with the election, why, and how, based on what I've read, that I hope are reasonable, but my title question is an important one. It also asks other things. Is the Trump movement growing or shrinking? Are reasonable voices being driven away who really want to sort the fact and fiction? Are we all deluding ourselves?
A tangent, but I have to ask: do the TD lads have a compiled resource for this kind of data? We've been having information-based skirmishes for years now online, and I think it's essential for any online community under attack to develop a widespread understanding of things like shilling, disinformation, and trolling.
I come from /pol/ territory, and while a lot of their ideas are considered unsavory, they had some fantastic resources. Shamefully, I can't share their COINTELPRO guide because I'm a dummy and didn't save it (and google search will never show it). But the point is that that kind of image featuring compiled data was how the /pol/ group passed such essential data to new users.
If TD has no such guide, well...I hope they can make one because they get (and should expect to get) so many newcomers. They know they're a target, but the attitude I always see there is that reports and mods will solve everything, thus making it unessential to understand the vectors of attack that are most likely to occur.
