Been around the block once or twice?
Done some Digg? Gone to Reddit?
You're here now. You're here because you know the trend. Here's how it happens.
- Site says, "WE ARE FOR FREE SPEECH! WE CENSOR NOTHING!!!"
- CoIntel makes a FatPeopleHate, Ni**erHaters, and ILoveKiddyPorn subgroup.
- Media SHRIEKS!!! KIDDY PORN? OMG!
How about this?
ONLY political speech. No racial categorizations. Say, as a group, "WE DO NOT BELIEVE THAT THE MAJOR COMPONENT IN ANY WORLD PROBLEM IS RACE. WE BELIEVE THAT ORGANIZATIONS AND THEIR ACTIONS MUST BE TAKEN CONSIDERED APART FROM ANY RACIAL COMPONENT. We will debate the actions of the NAACP or State of Israel. We will say nothing of Blacks or Jews because only the simple minded look at serious issues with such trivial insight. It is a great lesson of history that the organization does not necessarily serve the interests of its members, and further, that the actions of an organization do not necessarily reflect the will of the members. Americans did not want the Iraq War. The US Government went to war in Iraq, in defiance of the popular will, and based on fabricated evidence. You can go discuss the racial characteristics of Jews, Blacks, Americans, Southerners and Gays... over on Reddit."
I would LIKE a place for political speech AND cat pictures... but Reddit is FINE for cat pictures and I'm not interested in hating on fat people.
Discuss GamerGate on Reddit. That's all about broad generalizations of specific groups...
Go Discuss Jews on Reddit. We'll talk about Aipac here... and Henry Kissinger and Bibi.
Go talk about what southerners "really" think about the confederate flag... on Reddit.... We'll be discussing the SPLC.
Reddit is a playground for the fallacy of composition and confirmation bias. FoC * CB = Bigotry.
Voat should be a political platform... a research platform... not just a replacement for Reddit, or it will be conquered like Reddit.

I think what ruined /r/conspiracy is the limits that the mods were forced to create to please the reddit mods. We shouldnt try and put limits here, it will only destroy this subverse. Let the upvote/downvote be the judge.
