There are some very pure freedom of speech arguments to be made for option 1, which is probably the option I'd support. That said however, the practical real world situation says that without advertisers and investors voat cannot probably last long term, especially if something drastic happens, such as Reddit's The_Donald moving here due to a ban. I would have concerns as to how voat would survive such an influx of folk, numbering well into the 1000's. The site needs investment, and that won't happen if an advertisers message is displayed along side a sub such as niggers or fatpeoplehate. They will just stay with reddit or others.
If I had to choose between those subs and Voat as a whole, I'd choose Voat.
