Well first of all welcome. Do not ever let me off easy. I would obviously argue this one. It’s legally a neutral public forum. I plan to actively try to stop brigading. I plan to be here everyday and try to make sure I do not let anyone turn it into an echo chamber. I won’t silence any argument but if you can’t back up your argument then people will see it for what it is. Last but not least here at least for now the downvote button is not an I disagree button.

I am not convinced.

Reddit has tard gestapo and laws tighter than a fishes anus.

Phuks has pussy rules that allow them to ban anyone that hurts someone's feelings.

Voat has... Nothing.

Poal has... Nothing.

This site has lots of "free speech" scribbled all over the place, but what is to stop the:

downvote button is not an I disagree button.

Well I as the admin actively discourage it’s use as a I disagree button. However poal does have something voat doesnt. Check the warrant canary sub/link and you will see what I am talking about. I suppose I don’t have a hard or fast rule that stops people from using it that way but I would like to think if I’m active an encourage discussion rather than down voting it’ll at least somewhat influence the users behavior.

Free speech canaries, and free speech in general doesn't interest me.

This does:

Who has phuks banned (apart from the obvious commercial spammers)?

Voat had a bucketload of rules that implemented heavy hivemind censorship - conversation is more free on phuks.
