Again, I don't like it, but we're at a point where our primary concern is not about which alt platform we like more, but which one will survive.

Gab's moral authoritarianism bent is absolutely stupid and self-defeating, and for fuck's sake, from a tactical position: porn is a money maker. Look at SubscribeStar. It was literally built for porn. Actors and Actresses were sick of getting screwed by Patreon, and they couldn't put their work up without potentially violating some term of service, so SubcribeStar was invented to handle exactly that. As soon as the Patreon Purge happened, tons of people moved there. Now it's a valid alternative. It's not a purely political alternative.

The same issue is with BitChute. If you're comprised of political refugees, that's what you'll stay as until you start branching out. What Bitchute has been slowly gaining on is non political channels.

Gab trying to ratchet down on it's own users for moral reasons is not helpful. However, they were one of the few places smart enough to say, "No no. We actually need to build our own infrastructure."

That being said, banning porn just generally is fine because if you don't, it opens you up to lawsuits. You can be guaranteed that the Left will not hesitate to use CP as a weapon with the first chance it gets.
