re: The Largest Reddit Alternative Ever Made - IS SHUTTING DOWN

My point was not about the pros and cons of marginalizing groups, but rather your theory that those marginalized always deserve to be, because if they didn't they wouldn't be.

My theory, if that's what you'd like to call it, is that if nobody cares about your message, nobody has to read or listen to it. If you write a book that no one wants to read, barnes and noble doesn't have to put it on the shelf (nor does any other platform). No publisher has to publish it. Is that unfair? Is that unequal treatment?

Oh, here we go again. Now people you disagree with deserve to belong in the same bin as kiddie porn peddlers.

I never said that's what they "deserve". I said if that's what your preferred content ends up bundled with in the marketplace of ideas, maybe it's time for some self-reflection.

You have zero self-awareness.

(eta: voat also doesn't/didn't tolerate child porn, so this is yet another off-topic invented smear intended to group disagreement with society's worst behaviors)

---

Again, big difference between disagreement and fabrications passed as truth. And I could have sworn that voat had a kiddie porn problem at one time, but if not my mistake. However I'm happy that you seemingly agree that we should marginalize speech that is clearly harmful to others.

I didn't say either of these things Try to respond to my actual points, not the hard-right reactionary strawman you're concocting

You don't think you are doing the same to me? I'm a pretty reasonable person, not "hard" anything. I'm definitely not lumping opposing views and disagreement into the bucket of rightfully marginalized content, as you keep accusing me of doing.
