I am not and never was a reddit mod. I like feeling like I belong to a community of people. I love being on all the stupid in jokes ETC... However, if VOAT becomes a cesspool of jailbait and like minded subs, I wont like being a part of this community because it will make me feel creepy.
I dont even mind seeing a picture of a beautiful 16 year old girl in a bikini, I can appreciate that shes beautiful. I just dont want this place to become the place where the lines are blurred because then everyone on the site is labeled a creep. I dont like being labeled a creep.
Also for all the MODS of Jailbait and the like, remember what they did to violentacruz, can you really take CBS news coming into your home and or workplace and telling the world you mod a sub dedicated to oogling young girls. Is it really worth it? Is it worth it for VOAT overall? What happens when the investigations start and Voat needs to spend hundreds of thousands of dollars on lawyers to see if something is illegal or not?
I am a huge free speech guy, but VOAT needs to do whatever it is to make VOAT a platform where it succeeds. If that means Jailbait needs to be shut down then so be it. I do not believe that its a big deal. Let Voat do whats right for voat.
More than free speech I left reddit because of the downvote brigades ETC. You couldnt have a normal conversation with a opinion that differs than the herd without getting downvoted to oblivion. I didnt leave because they banned FPH. I kind of agree that FPH constitutes harassment. I dont feel the need to post a picture of a moose and shame him/her. You can trust me they already feel that shame.
Everything you just said was about how you feel, which are feelings you are entirely entitled to have. But the whole idea behind voat is that it is a place for people to discuss topics that they want, as long as it is legal. It is easily avoidable. Did you feel like a racist on reddit because coontown existed? Or like a Nazi because gasthekikes was around?
Be confident in yourself. You know who you are and what you do or do not like. If people happen to use voat to do weird shit, you know you aren't one of them and anyone that tries to tell you that you are one of them probably has some other reason for doing it.
