CMV: The_Donald subreddit should not be forcibly taken down.

Healthy discourse will never happen in a subreddit like that.

I'm not sure that healthy discourse is the point of the subreddit. They are pretty clear it's a celebration of Donald Trump. They are very open about it not being a place for debate, any more than a r/ontruegod is open to debate about Nicholas Cage's greatness.

So do you believe that, because it's "potentially dangerous" (as are many subreddits), it should be banned? If another subreddit whose main purpose is to celebrate Trump rose in its place, would that also be "potentially dangerous" and therefore ban-worthy?

In other words, what conditions woudl need to be in place for a Trump-loving subreddit to not be banned? Because there will always be trolls and people saying dumb things, and no mod is alert or fast enough to deal with it all.
