2000 comments on a post by an approved submitter is the opposite of "been shut down."
To my earlier point:
> So now it's the truest propaganda machine, you're saying. Approved users only for consumption by a dedicated subscriber base.
The link itself is to a pinned, mod-posted, announcement link to an article about an executive order to strip social media platforms from liability protections from charges of bias.
The most recent non-announcement post was two months ago.
Other choice top-level comments:
- "Huh and coincidentally I see a TD post on my feed for the first time in months."
- "TD COME BACK"
- "The Phoenix shall rise from the ashes"
- "OMG it’s been so long, I have missed you all my friends!!!"
Meanwhile, taking a jaunt to thedonald.win, shows what is basically a reddit clone with much more activity, easily verifiable with two minutes examination.
I'm not a /r/the_donald reader/subscriber/whatever, and haven't followed whatever reddit drama has transpired, but it's pretty clear they've been shut down for a while.
