Why wait until it becomes a problem? The_Donald literally started as a joke brought over from 4chan. It grew and over time it basically went from “too small to do something about it” to “too big to do something about it” (to Reddit admins at least). Why even give these people a platform? We don’t have any reason to give them space to grow.
