Reddit Shuts Down Forum Probing Trump Assassination Attempt, Fuels Censorship Debate

In a controversial move, Reddit has banned a subreddit dedicated to discussing the assassination attempt on President Donald Trump, leading many to accuse the platform of censorship. The forum, which centered on uncovering details about would-be assassin Thomas Crooks, allowed users to share information and theories about the July 13 attack in Butler, Pennsylvania. Crooks was killed by snipers during the attempt on Trump’s life, but many questions remain about the incident.

Reddit claimed that the forum violated its rules against violent content, but provided no specific evidence of this. The lack of transparency has sparked speculation that the ban was less about content moderation and more about silencing discussion of an event that could influence the upcoming election.

Trump’s heroic reaction to the attempt—raising his fist and urging his supporters to “fight” — has captivated his base, yet the mainstream narrative seems intent on burying this story.

This move by Reddit follows similar actions taken by Google and Facebook. Google scrubbed related search suggestions from its platform, while Facebook falsely flagged images of Trump’s defiant gesture as “AI-generated.” Both companies faced backlash and accusations of interfering with the election.

Critics argue that Big Tech’s actions are part of a coordinated effort to control the narrative surrounding Trump’s assassination attempt. The banning of the “Thomas Crooks” subreddit raises serious questions: Are these platforms genuinely concerned with “violent content,” or is there something more they don’t want the public to know?
