Do you have a link? I can't find anything after some cursory googling. Also, how did T_D respond when the hoax came out?

Also, do you see a problem with one person doing something bad, and then blaming a whole group?

I remember seeing the user post the image on T_D immediately. Can't find it now, he likely deleted it. It was highly upvoted.

I don't remember seeing a "we are sorry about the fake story" post.

I am not saying everyone is lying. I am saying the sub exists to find incredibly colorful stories that center around white people being attacked and victimized to stoke hatred against all non-whites. Muslims/blacks/mexicans/etc.

Here's some threads I can find about it:

https://www.reddit.com/r/The_Donald/comments/6wn655/remember...

https://www.reddit.com/r/The_Donald/comments/6wp8p6/what_a_l...

Upvoted quotes: "What a fucking idiot.", "What an Imbecile.", "Did he just commit self-harm just to get attention? What a retard.", "That's pathetic. Disavowed.", "On the bright side, someone stabbed him."

If you think that is what T_D is about, you obviously haven't spent much time there.
