Am I the only one that doesn't give a shit? Both of these subs now are full of posts accusing the other of being shills and insinuation that theirs is the correct sub. Fuck off.

I don't believe everything I read, and neither should you. If you do, you're fucking retarded. I don't come here for that bullshit. I come here to see if any interesting tidbits from the Chans or Twitter that I may have missed have filtered through. That's about it. I feel like I'm caught in a squabble between a bunch of petulant children.

You're not the only one, although I do care a wee bit more than you. I've almost never interacted with a mod nor had any need to. I never felt like there was any issue at r/greatawakening, as I certainly never had an issue. That said, your post was about thread moderation being a bit juvenile when the real reason we are here is to follow the greatest story ever told (maybe 2nd greatest in deference to my Christian brethren).

My response to that is that it seems that there are very sincere "Goats" who are concerned with the integrity of "their" home site. I can respect that, and I'll visit both of these Voat threads for now, as both have some good Q-comment......the reason I come in the first place.

so what you're saying is you're perfectly fine with people getting banned for "calling out the mods" that's behavior you approve of and feel no need to address? Why did you people even leave reddit if you like censorship so much?

also don't put "their" home site in quotes. Voat is both funded and coded by the existing userbase here, we have a legitimate claim to the site as a whole.

No, what I'm saying is that I haven't witnessed the behavior ya'll are describing. There's enough seemingly reasonable people here who have responded to me that I recognize that this actually is an issue, even if it hasn't directly affected me.

Please appreciate that this entire dilemma is new to me and was unasked for, but I'll stand on the right side of any censorship issue and I appreciate ya'll communicating the need to me and others.

The problem with censorship is you don't hear from the censored pay attention watch the logs
