Reddit already has a history of killing subs it doesn't like via 'quarantine' or outright bans.
"Restrictions on a quarantined community include:
Requiring an account with a verified email address
Requiring an explicit opt-in
No custom images
Will generate no revenue, including ads or Reddit Gold"
Reddit is a business, not a bastion of free speech. They have killed communities for less than what The_Donald was doing. I'll let you speculate on the motives (:

This effectively kills subs unless it's lifted.
Subs targeted for this range from offensive to innocuous (E.g. freckles, female ejaculation, a racist anti-black community) https://www.reddit.com/r/GoldTesting/comments/3fxs3q/list_of...
