Pardon me if this has been asked and answered already, but what happened with Rukkus? Never visited.
Without knowing what the specific story with Rukkus was, I'll say one thing: Being kicked off of essential web services due to targeted adverse interference by the ADL is not an example of "Free speech gone wrong". It's a case of the ADL being a literally evil organization, possessing too much power and enacting tyranny.

The brief version is the admins turned out to be commies, faggots, trannies, and jews. Once they began to "ban all the nazis" while still calling themselves a free speech site, it started going downhill fast.

Ahh. So was it that way from the onset or was it a hijacking effort like on reddit?

You should be thrilled to know that I am racially Jewish and most of my family died in the Holocaust. But actually I am the perfect person to run a free speech site because I hate all groups and all groups hate me, so I won't discriminate. The Left hates me and I hate them. The alt-right hates me and I hate them. The Jews hate me and I hate them. The only things I will ban are whatever is illegal or obscene. Nazis, communists, and other assorted scum will have unrestricted free speech.

I believe it was a case of the admins finally showing their true colors, after some previous false starts. I'm not really the person to go into details, because I only had an inactive account over there. (the site colors and guild structure were too off-putting)
