TheDonald.win owes its success in part to its Reddit-like interface, which has made it a natural landing point for the displaced community of r/The_Donald. Meanwhile, with lighter content moderation than more mainstream platforms, users are afforded a greater degree of freedom in what they can post.

“Where TheDonald.win did really well is to replicate the functionality of Reddit and also created a place where the community could transfer itself over to,” said Mr Carusone. “In a lot of ways it’s a more distilled and refined version of their community, free of safeguards.”

It's kind of funny that they can't help but make it seem like a pretty cool place.

No I mean the, "deviating from the male stereotype of of being an ultra-chad at all is a sign that you're an 'egg' and secretly trans, you just don't know it yet."

Yeah, there are definitely redpilled people there, but the most interesting conversations are the ones where someone goes from "Why couldn't you have just asked nicely?" to "This is completely unreasonable, I don't think you even watch anime."

Also the ones where moderate lefties (if such a thing still exists) realize that this will likely stoke transphobia. The exact opposite of the stated goal. (Do we have a better word for transphobia yet? Just typing the word feels like propaganda to me now. Why does everything have to be a phobia?)

Yes I definitely see it. I just want to know if there was actual unethical activity on brave's part that I should be aware of, or if there is a greater context I'm missing.

Opening scene of Cold War 2?

I don't want to seem to eager, but there might not be any other options when it comes to china.

So, is there any legitimacy to this? Should I switch off of Brave or is the archive.is just pitching a fit?

Well, I suppose this is a form of purity spiral too. Eventually the Democrats will be unable to find any remotely competent candidates that fulfill all of there ever-growing list of requirements.

I'm not sure. Though thinking about it now I forgot to archive it. Though you can hardly brigade a nuked sub now, can you.

This seems like defensive moderator action of some kind, so let's wait and see what's up.
