Last month, Reddit admins shut down three subreddits catering to the internet Nazi phenomenon known as the alt right.

I‘m back from the depths of flu-dom and ready to take on the world, or at least some of its most terrible and ridiculous aspects. I’m not quite at full strength yet, so posting may be a bit light for a few more days. But the flu is definitely on the way out. Thanks for your patience and support!

And now the meat: Congress is on recess this week. That means TOWN HALLS for you to visit with several hundred of your new friends.
