I'd like to participate in a community like this, but where would it be hosted? Reddit, saiddit, something else?

Reddit is obviously hostile towards us, Saiddit and all other reddit wannabes lack perspective, I would say Discord.

Discord is banning servers which are reported as "transphobic" so good luck with that

Well, like I said, no one wants to be a platform for "hate speech". It's bad press.

What the fuck is the definition of "hate speech", I haven't seen a coherent one yet. They are allowing hatred against white people, threatening women with rape and death, vandalizing shelters, yeah that's totally not hateful

That's the magic of "hate speech". You can call all sorts of things with that label if you try hard enough.

I saw an actual poster in my city saying "racism is not an opinion", which is absolutely ridiculous. "hate speech is not free speech" also doesn't make sense, but these idiotic phrases get shared everywhere.

You're right, this is an incredibly dangerous concept in general. "Hate speech" is the only known mechanism that has enough of social support to successfully limit freedom of speech.
