Are people downvoting this comment because they disagree with the political affiliation?

Probably just because it's a boring comment that doesn't add to discussion? (r/the_donald was doing that in 2016)

But this article is from 2016, seems relevant to me.

pdw didn't exist then. How is some site not on reddit rehashing a joke from 7 years ago relevant?

Because the article is about an edit on our subreddit and we keep the memory alive today. I expect your bothered that people like me exist and come to HN and other normie websites. You can't possibly in good faith be arguing that it isn't relevant.

> your [sic] bothered

Nope, bored; see first comment

> and other normie websites

Your reddit knockoff devoted to a US president is for normies, it's mostly reposted Facebook content. Do you know what this site is about? He has a Twitter knockoff too, and he's against big tech right?

Seems clear enough to me, yes.

What is pdw?

patriots.win, the exodus ship of T_D

It was originally thedonald.win but there was some dispute with the domain owner who left the (anonymous) team behind the site.

Nobody really knows who the ownership is, but objectively speaking the programming and build quality isn't bad. They've tried to branch out with communities.win but it's still suffering from the Voat problem of a high concentratation of banned subreddits.

Don't ask me. The whole setup is kinda sketchy IMO, I'd be careful what you post there. At least one person was arrested for comments made on the site. Obviously, you shouldn't post things that could be construed as a threat on any forum... but that one in particular is likely some sort of honeypot.

Personal Defense Weapon, the Parallel Data Warehouse reddit, or one of the_donald knockoffs (Truth Social etc) I guess?

pdw is r/the_donald
