/r/the_Donald has this stupid conspiracy that a pizza parlour is a child sex ring and Clinton was involved, that became /r/pizzagate which the Admins tried to clean up because its retarded and was doxxing innocent people so they called the admins paedophiles.

I feel stupider just for having had to type that..what a world we've built.

It's more than just stupid too.

Innocent people have had death threats over seriously bizarre allegations. The FBI really should be involved and people charged.

Of course, now any FBI investigation would have to take into account that reddit employees are known to silently edit comments.

If spez was going to do anything in retaliation he should have just renamed /r/the_Donald to /r/poes_law.

That would have been elegant and not touched user history.

I honestly can't tell with that sub at all. Its fascinating to visit like the redpill used to be, some very strange people out there.

Don't just write it off. They are onto something! I've seen many redditors solve real life mysteries.

I'm not talking about spez.

I am talking about the fact that the pizzeria owner and his staff have had death threats against them from members of the Reddit /r/pizzagate sub. The FBI should be investigating this and charging people.

People are missing the satire here.

Honestly, why do people get riled up about death threats on the internet? How many death threats have resulted in actual deaths? I'd put the number at around zero.
