Mass hijacking spree takes over subreddits to promote Donald Trump:
Dozens of discussion groups on Reddit—including those dedicated to the National Football League, the San Francisco 49ers, and the Gorillaz—were hit in a Friday morning mass takeover spree that used the subreddits to spread messages promoting President Trump.
The hijacked accounts had tens of millions of combined members. The 148,000-member subreddit Supernatural, dedicated to the TV show by the same name, was emblazoned with pro-Trump images and slogans. Reddit personnel have since restored the moderator account to its rightful owner. The image above is how the subreddit appeared when the takeover was still active. The takeovers came five weeks after Reddit banned /r/The_Donald, a leading forum for fans of the president, and hundreds of other unrelated subreddits for violating recently rewritten content rules.
Reddit personnel published this post captioned, "Ongoing incident with compromised mod accounts." Reddit personnel then warned that moderator accounts were being compromised and used to vandalize subreddits. It asked moderators of affected subreddits to report them in responses.
A larger list of subreddits reported as compromised is available at the incident report linked above.
[...] Reddit officials issued the following statement: "An investigation is underway related to a series of vandalized communities. It appears the source of the attacks were compromised moderator accounts. We are working to lock down those accounts and restore impacted communities."
[...] At the time this post went live, most or all of the affected accounts appeared to have been either restored and reverted back to their previous condition or banned for terms of service violations.

Trump and the progressives are putting up a pantomime, but progressives want to go beyond the concept of "country" because the root of all evil is the old order. Me thinks the problem of the old order is that it ceased when the thieves (merchants) took over the bullies (aristocracy), so you have the new order damaging society and blaming the old order. So ANY way to run a country is better than the progressive way, unless you don't care for the country.

Well you're certainly not going to win over any of them with insults. Really, you guys are your own worst enemy. When you attack a group, they always reinforce each other and dig in harder. Next time try some understanding and you'll have a chance at meeting your objectives. Until then, you're acting in the same manner as the people you hate. Nice double-standard. Enjoy your hatred of haters, just be sure not to look into a mirror.
Trump was seemingly a chance at an outsider who wasn't a corrupt political elite. He sucks, but you'll never make any progress if you don't take changes.

Speaking from the provinces, we have progressives and free thinkers. Free thinkers wondered at the scandal of Italian money given to the Clinton foundation just before the election. Then wondered at the projections which gave the losing candidate as a basically sure winner. Now we are wondering at the power struggle between the Jewish Soros on one side and the extremely pro Jewish Trump on the others, because we have a truly supremacist philosophy manoeuver both camps.
Progressives feature no more than 3 guys who use they own judgement, and are attacked by the party line which all others blindly follow. So they actually go from #abbracciauncinese to lockdown to immigrants pardon migrants can roam the land, all others must follow one directives.

I have no intelligence chip. They removed it so I could better understand AC comments.
