What. The. Fuck.

This site was created as a back up site for r/the_donald, in case r/the_donald got taken down. Well, it did, essentially. And lots and lots of people have come over, as planned. But some of us who've been here for two months are whining about it. It's utterly bizarre. I've the suspicion that their motives are not perfectly plain, that perhaps, they're plants to try to reshape the culture here? Hmm? No?

Frankly, this site now has the feel of t_d in the olden days, the glorious days, during the primaries. And I love it.

Best meme yet

I missed it. I wish we had a meme section

Same that would be awesome to have a section for memes. I rely on https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCyB3vvEKRjBP3r1xptvCPrA for my weekly recap. There are always a few I've missed every week.

A mystery wrapped in an enigma, tucked in a dress.

I suspect we're being concern trolled.

I can't think of any patriot who'd spit in the face of what the mods achieved here and how valuable it will be in the lead up to November.

I recommend asking anyone complaining to message the mods and let them know about their issue so it can be fixed. If they keep on complaining or can't articulate how TheDonald.Win ruined their life, then it's likely they aren't interested in anything beyond attacking President Trump.

"Do not let your fire go out, spark by irreplaceable spark in the hopeless swamps of the not-quite, the not-yet, and the not-at-all. Do not let the hero in your soul perish in lonely frustration for the life you deserved and have never been able to reach. The world you desire can be won. It exists.. it is real.. it is possible.. it's yours." -- Ayn Rand

I am attempting to light fires in the comments. They cannot extinguish the glorious days.

the comment sections are what keeps the shit interesting. Before TD was completely taken over, there were no comments here, and it was boring as fuck. Now, in the last 24 hours, we finally have threads with more than 20 comments after being up less than 3 hours. This is what we need.

The meme war effort starts with you!

If everybody has that attitude, it will return in all its glory -- and more.

When this got out of beta and announced on T_D mods made it clear it was being unveiled earlier than anticipated due to Reddit admins upping the threats. I am glad it was here, waiting.

We're lucky to have such great people with us and among us. We're lucky to have such a great country and one of the greatest Presidents of all time. AMERICA!!!!!

Sorry. I just don't get this. Reddit taking down t_d is a monumental event on the internet. T_D has been a apart of the lives of so many, and it was just ripped away, in a brutal act of political censorship. Of course they're going to talk about it. It's perfectly natural for the refugees to talk about.

Why you'd complain they're talking about it, is what's mysterious.

It's possible I've missed those posts. I haven't seen posts or comments critical of this site.

I mean, some people are wondering about various functions they're used to on reddit. But they've been polite about it, so far as I've seen.

This site is better than having commie overllords control the Dom reddit

ThomasGiferson [S] 1 point ago +1 / -0

That's my sense of it. After, the election, it felt like t_d was being slowly constricted day by day. This place feels, to me at least, a bit more free.

AMEN!

Lol. I was an early adopter here. I lurked loooong time in T_D, only signed up there as protest of the quarantine.

People are silly. And we are all free.

Some olden pedes here might resent new people only came after being forced... we’re not really ‘Merica... we’re ‘Merica EVERYWHERE!! And liberty and freedom is a birthright from God. So let them feel as they want, new folks, and show them there’s reason to rejoice with all the new folks and more fresh content, more spicy memes, etc.

They prolly are older pedes, and can’t keep up with all that upvoting on NEW now

I don't know how you came upon this special insider information that older Pedes are causing a problem here. I take great offense at that baseless accusation. You got facts to base that on? Put up now - we're all listening.

That’s a lot of high energy. Good. Now take a breath Alex Jones. ?? I said might. might. And also said prolly. Maybe I was basing it on my old ass and thinking I’m gonna take 10 million years finding shit in the middle of all this glorious new content and various comments. Love to all my pedes. Old and new. Recent or cranky and high on dragon energy.

Don't attack your own kind. That's what they want.

Fuck em. Reddit is gay. I'd rather be more like 4chan without all the buttholes but keep reddit's updoodles

Seriously, late 2015/early 2016 was the WILD FUCKING WEST days of T_D.

It was glorious.

Many of us were lurkers. I joined after the quarantine but have loved the comaraderie here.

No true pede would complain about it. This has always been the plan.

“Low energy” always gives them away.

Anyone who doesn't like our new brothers and sisters coming over from Reddit or anywhere else can go back to 4chan, where they obviously belong.
