a place for differing opinions regardless of good or bad intensions.

People who cannot argue their points without resorting to name-calling aren't welcome here on saidit. That's what the pyramid of debate means. You can have any viewpoint you want as long as you argue it intelligently and respectfully.

This isn't voat where any old shitpost is allowed. There are other sites for that.

ok so shitredditors say is gone now by that definition. along with memes because that could be used as offensively shitposting and i'm sure there's multiple other subs that could "loosly" fit that definition.

Do you see where i'm going with this? it's only allowed what you deem fit by your own personal beliefs/opinions or something is banned to being offensive by your personal beliefs/opinions. And thats not to say that coontown may or may not have been utilized to test the waters as bait of censoring due to inactivity. and you proved their hypothesis. I'm saying this was a bad judgement on your part with how you responded.

coontown is not the same as shitredditors say, not even close. I don't care about proving the hypothesis of people who only care about destroying things anyway. Can't please everyone. We have to draw the line somewhere or saidit will just become voat.

voat became what it is today because of what reddit did after pao.

I don't know if you were their during that whole fiasco but average redditors flocked over their in droves to the point where their servers crashed for like 2 weeks and they returned back to reddit and the ones who couldn't remained and that is what you see today. they took over to the point where the owner just gave up on it and they retaliated and banned against anyone "normal".

and you see what reddit has became today because of "pao's" censorship.(pao may have been more of a scapegoat in order for reddits implementation)

Yes, but voat also stood by while they let neonazis take over the site, and we don't intend for the same to happen here

How will you go about ensuring that neonazis and the like don't "take over" Saidit?

By enforcing the pyramid of debate. Turns out neo-nazis are usually pretty terrible at arguing their points in a calm rational respectful way, if voat is any indication.

I'll help. We can only do this together. The only way we can do this is keeping the quality of the site high enough that we won't get blacklisted from jobs by mere association. (Well, from jobs that we'd want to have, anyway.)

Thanks for this! What is the general feeling regarding conservative Christians?

Every ideological demographic is welcome as long as they are respectful towards others. That's the cool thing about saidit
