In an up to 2015 I would visit one evenly sampled across the US political forum around election times to see what's up. I saw that Trump was winning and someone with a lot of firepower coming out had a www.reddit.com/r/TheDonald in their signature. I went there and was blown away at the tool and reach that was reddit for politics before it was censored.

I had posts there that were title text only that made front page etc. I frequently made front page maybe once every couple of days. Posts I made mattered. They reached 10s or 100s of thousands. The reason 'dumpster fire' is in your lexicon? That's me. I so flawlessly used it on one case at the right time to describe the democrats that for days and literally forever afterwards they've been butthurt'edly and uselessly been trying to use it in the other direction.

Never saw it being flung around anywhere on reddit etc until I used it that one time.

But now they've censored the living shit hell out of everything. Things I / we post here DO affect the zeitgeist. I've seen it many times. However I DO NOT reach 10s or 100s of thousands anymore with HIGHLY validated single messages / posts. But I feel like I still post here and places like that as if I do.

I was here to get some redpills and I got a lot of them plus a new faith in Jesus Christ, the merchant ass-kicker! I used to think I could make friends here but I found out it's way easier and better afk.

I'm a drive by idea spreader. I get an idea, find a cool link to share or something funny and I post it here.

I'm here because voat was euthanized. Also the rose colored glasses we look out at the world with.

Ya well you know the phrase "hot beef injection?" It's in your lexicon because of me.

My friends and I were using that circa 1979. Bum blast was another one popular back then

That's impossible. I coined the phrase myself while I was playing as a substitute for my aunt in her weekly Mahjong game in 1982. All the other ladies said I was precocious and clever. Are you saying they lied?

I am assigned to monitor Poal as part of my digital homeland security training before the FBI lets me out in the field for raids.

Reddit started locking down on speech and Voat opened. I moved there. Voat was unreliable and I moved to Phuks. Phuks was okay for awhile, but it had free speech issues and mod issues. I moved here afterwords and all has been good. It is important to be able to have free exchange of ideas. I'd welcome liberals to come and debate us here, but they won't. They stick to there safe spaces.

Ditto. Reddit to voat to here.

I think it left when they banned fat people hate. It's was like okay this is getting ridiculous.

They banned another popular sub I liked too, can't recall it for some reason but I think fat people hate was first.

Yeah. When they started policing speech and banned my account after I called some homo a faggot I left. It was the last straw from the direction it was going more and more. That Ellen bitch was the catalyst for a lot of it.

But with a site like that where one of the universal subscribed subs was that man hating space of xxchromosome you obviously know the narrative they push.

To be informed. And to share keks at the powers they believe themselves to be with my frens.

But also to broaden my horizon, and challenge my beliefs. And there are some great minds here. I enjoy that.

I generally watch the way this place curates the front page and view that as a quasi-effective means to deal with the censorship brigades.

Specifically, the highly consolidated and limited subs that show if you are not logged in, which of course causes some of the mods to act semi-Reddit tier to move posts that shouldn't be visible to this lurker crowd.

At first, I disliked this strategy. Over time, I've seen the merit.

I was here because it was among the last free sites on the web. Then about six months back I stepped on the dick of the lord and savior and incurred apparently never-ending wrath as a result. Now it's whatever... But then, that was the point of his play. So, I've had to branch out to less authoritarian environments. New voat is new voat. Not the same as old voat. But its there. So is Telegram. Such is the nature of the modern internet. Minor fiefdoms are the rule rather than the exception.

Telegram is more kiked than reddit

And everything glows... The volume of quality content available on telegram is without peer. But the platform is itself difficult to enjoy. Nonetheless, there are not many options remaining.
