Trump-related prophecies
Donald Trump's ear was apparently nicked by an assassin's bullet on Saturday. Since then, we've had a bunch of people post about a video that claimed that Trump would be shot in the ear, would have his eardrum burst by the bullet (probably due to the sound), and that he immediately would fall down and turn to Jesus.
Today someone posted a video about the video and McClanky linked it in our Discord and I removed it. I removed it because from my perspective, which is not a Christian perspective and not the perspective of a Trump supporter, the whole thing is stupid.
I'd like to solicit your opinion about this. Should we leave this material up, or should we take it down?
This is not a general referendum about videos. I don't know what it's about, actually, and that's part of the problem.
How much is too much when we're talking about what I would characterize as prophetic fever dreams about Donald Trump?
This post will remain stickied until late Thursday or sometime Friday.

I'm getting the sense that you guys are okay with us just taking a machete to this stuff, but I'd like to get /u/dion_reimer figured out.
/u/Shaddam_Corrino_IV has a mock concern that would bother me if it was a Christian saying it. The reason I'm posting this is that I am not Christian and recognize that my perspective is influenced by that, and I don't want to just bury concerns of Christians. I'm also aware that with regard to some things, liberal Christians are more likely to agree with me than conservative Christians, and they outnumber the conservative Christians, and I don't want the conservative Christians to get buried. I'm not getting a lot of pushback on this from *anyone* though.
