I think the main problem of all these “alternative” sites is that there really are just a fuckton of shitty people waiting to go in at the very beginning. So even if people have legitimate concerns and the desire to build fresh, they are quickly pushed out by real cesspool denizens.
- jude- 5y agoGee, it's almost as if moderation is necessary for communities to thrive! Imagine that.
- pope_meat 5y agoI'm wondering what it says about us humans that the only way to maintain even a modicum of civility is heavy censorship. Also, don't these folks realize that Jesus was Jewish... like, what kind of brain worms crawling in their heads that they can in one breath proclaim faith to an Abrahamic religion, hate for people from that part of the world, and how morality comes from a society following their preferred religion. Feels pretty hopeless.

I don't expect this comment to get much love in a thread linking to patriots.win, a clone of one of the most heavily moderated and hateful subs in Reddit history.
