Announcement: We are undoing all bans. (theawakening)

submitted ago by PenSHITLORD

We are undoing all bans. We apologize for taking the wrong approach here on Voat - this is a transition for us all, unplanned and unprepared for. We've made mistakes. We are under attack here for this reason and others. Voat members are justifiably pissed at us. Shills are taking the opportunity to spread dissension.

Stay strong. Stay together.

From this point forward, 8ch.net/patriotsawoken will be our default home and ultimate fallback from censoring sites and social media. Any other site is playing by someone else's rules and will be raided and overcome. Voat, if we can ride out this transition phase, may be a soft onboarding for 8chan.

Whatever happens, be sure, Patriots: the home of GreatAwakening is now 8ch.net/patriotsawoken.

The moderation team is on board. The user is a trusted source and made the post since the Mods on-line right now can't post. ThankQ

That's a problem you guys brought upon yourselves and is easily rectifiable. So now one has to question why you need a "trusted source" to spread a message for you guys, and why you guys decided to ham-string yourselves and not fix it. Do you care to comment before you ban me and remove my comment?

This is the most censorious hole on the internet. What a mob of self-gratified wankers.

If you mean this moderation team and this community, you are correct.

I mean fucking Voat. Fucking assimilate version of "free speech." You've been jerking each other's chains about THAT for a few too many years.

To quote the Honorable Justice John Marshall Harlan II, speaking of the First Amendment right to freedom of speech;

To many, the immediate consequence of this freedom may often appear to be only verbal tumult, discord, and even offensive utterance. These are, however, within established limits, in truth necessary side effects of the broader enduring values which the process of open debate permits us to achieve. That the air may at times seem filled with verbal cacophony is, in this sense not a sign of weakness but of strength. [A]bsent a more particularized and compelling reason for its actions, the State may not, consistently with the First and Fourteenth Amendments, make the simple public display of this single four-letter expletive a criminal offense.

How is what this group doing consistent with the First Amendment?

If you think we have found somewhere to talk here, you're wrong.
