Voat is stagnant because reddit has the monopoly. It has nothing to do with people posting about jews or whatever. It would be this way if voat instituted sjw censorship or not or if it was further right or left than reddit. The culture wars get a lot of play but most people dgaf. Beneath the frontpage the countless subreddits about technology and anime or whatever which are the overwhelming bulk of reddit see no reason to move because of another silly ban that doesn't affect them. 4chan being known for its rightwing section didn't stop it from becoming the most popular imageboard although they are being more persecuted for it. People from voat can do a better job informing and attracting banned communities here but other than that its just a matter of inertia.
