This website is growing, and unlike Voat, and hasn't been overran with racist schills/bots/sockpuppets plus maybe a few actual racists. So, this website is shaping up to be fairly promising. And unlike Reddit, no there isn't any brigading or mass flagging, at least not yet. So right, I'm actually finding this site to be more enjoyable than Reddit.

That Voat statement is spot on. I feel pretty confident the posters are attempting to be edgy....... and yet I feel like I need to take a shower after perusing the site.

Nice username !

It's actually done to protect free speech. Every time there's a new influx of people on voat the old goats (me included) start a bit of hazing.

Once we get rid of the people who think they like free speech until they get called a 'kike nigger" as a term of endearment.. Then the conversation goes back to normal.

It's militant free speech. I just ignore it, generally.
