Sharing platform Reddit has removed a popular forum that focuses on the assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump.
The “Thomas Crooks” subreddit was banned for supposedly violating Reddit’s rules against posting violent content.
The assassination attempt against Trump occurred on July 13 in Butler, Pennsylvania, which ended with the death of Thomas Crooks by Secret Service snipers.
The shooting has now become one of the most historical events in United States history and will likely be discussed for years to come, but not on Reddit.
Reddit’s decision to ban the topic has raised concerns about its limits on free speech.
The now-defunct subreddit had been a hub for users seeking answers and sharing information about the incident, The Post Millenial’s Katie Daviscourt reported.
Discussion on the forum ranged from speculation about potential Secret Service security failures to theories of it being an inside job.
Unsurprisingly, Reddit has failed to provide specific examples of the offending material for the ban.
