I can see this going 2 ways- it is censorship free and gets smeared as a hub of racism/sexism/etc, or it self censors to try and "own" the left in the modern "conservative" fashion by showing how tolerant they are.
Don't submit anything illegal, use a reputable VPN with a no-logs policy -- ideally independently audited or court tested, and hope for the best.
There are other security measures, but for most of us this should suffice even if we run into a honey pot irrespective of the platform (WIN, Voat, whatever).
How can you browse through so many news articles written by jews, twitter threads by jews, and tv broadcasts by jews all about destroying western culture and still not get it?
What's so hard to understand about there being a high-level cult of Christian hating jews that do everything they can to undermine western societies? They even brag about it openly. I know you've seen it, too, because you sometimes post some of it yourself.
You're on one of those websites right now. Explain to me how any of the win network sites have worse rules than Reddit? That's just fucking dumb.
I can say nigger, faggot, retard, kike. I can say women are pieces of shit. I can say democrats stole the 2020 election. I can say Eric Ciaramella. I can say so many more things on win sites than literally any other website, including YouTube, Facebook, Twitter, etc.
You may not like that they do have some rules and aren't just voat clones, but they are 1000% better than Reddit. It's not even close.
No it isn't and no you won't. You might get banned if your only contribution is "I hate jews" or something like that. But if you said something like "Israel is not America's friend and here's why", you won't get banned. Nobody likes low effort edgy comments, it ruins a website if 50% of the comments are just "I hate niggers" or something like that. Just put some effort in to your comment and make it relevant. There has to be a balance between free speech and making a website actually usable by normal people. Otherwise you just end up with a website that nobody goes to ever except 20 of the same people always spouting "I hate niggers and jews".
I don't believe you. I see anti-Israel comments frequently.
No, it's not a stupid take at all. It's the take of a normal, rational person. If we allow every second comment to be "I hate jews", all that will happen is that nobody will visit the website anymore. There's been ample evidence of that. Many new communities started that allow it, and that's what happens 100% of the time. Because a lot of the people who hate jews and blacks are mentally unstable people who aren't even able to interact with others in a normal way.
I literally have said a million things negative about Trump. In fact, there are negative top comments about Trump on many posts now. But you would have had a point a few months before the election. But it wouldn't have been a good point, because it's still 1000% better than Reddit or any other social media. It's just the one place on the internet that wasn't anti-Trump. That rule is only there to get rid of the shills and faggot leftists trying to ruin the forum. If you're someone who has a fairly old account with a normal history, you won't be banned for it. I know, because I am someone like that, and said all kinds of bad things about Trump, especially post election. No bans.
I visit Patriots.win all the time, and used to visit every day when it was T_D. Now I spend a lot of time on the sub wins. I can literally point you to several users who are lunatic anti-jew people that are hostile 24/7 on those boards. We all know them and make fun of them. They aren't banned.
And I'm not asking you to do anything either. I'm just asking you to stop pretending that these websites are worse than Reddit. That is obviously not true.
I don't think your scenario is absurd, and it's definitely good to point out things like this, but there is a key difference. Reddit was run by leftists, and this site isn't. Whether that will make a difference in the end, we'll have to see.
My thoughts exactly. Although it would be nice for there to be some infrastructure for those in the Cancel Pit, better than none, if would result in two echochambers of crazies just talking to each other.
Wouldn’t be hard to leverage the popularity of a new social network into building a news network. Probably easier and cheaper to start smaller and test the waters.
*Ex-President, sorry.

American presidents retain the title for life.
Once a King in Narnia, always a King in Narnia.
It won't be censorship free, and it'll be lauded by cuckservatives everywhere because free speech is dead absent of niche places like Voat.
Voat is dead, too. The owner ran out of money to support the hosting server and pulled the plug.
A clone is up right now, FYI - https://www.voat.xyz/
It's in a rough state now, but the owner is working on making it better. Rule set - https://www.voat.xyz/rules.php
Did not know this, thank you
Lez move there
There was also OneAngryGamer where the comments would get...spicy. That's dead too. It would be nice if it got an alternative.
https://www.voat.xyz/v/oneangrygamer
It'll become more active once Voat has more features. I don't know if it'll ever be like the blog though given Billy's absence, we'll have to see.
I hope this becomes more active. I wonder if this is some honeypot. Hopefully I am wrong and it is just me being paranoid.

Come post and be part of the solution.
I would believe that if he'd won.
Well then I guess you're just fucked then aren't you?
Well then you're doubly fucked.

From what?
You can't refute the delusions of the insane.
It's gonna be cucked to hell and back.
Maybe this one won't have "misogyny" rules like fucking Parler.

How can you forget tranny? This site is really going to hell...
Lol, of all those words I only really use faggot, retard, and tranny myself. So shame on me for forgetting tranny.
This is basically the only domain where such speech is allowed, and you'll still get banned on the main TD board for talking bad about Israel.
No it isn't and no you won't. You might get banned if your only contribution is "I hate jews" or something like that. But if you said something like "Israel is not America's friend and here's why", you won't get banned.

Except I was. For that exact thing.
I got banned from TD for talking about how bad Israel is and how much they steal from the US.
This is a really stupid take and you should feel bad for even thinking it.
I don't believe you. I see anti-Israel comments frequently.
No, it's not a stupid take at all. It's the take of a normal, rational person.

"The president is starting his own platform"
Ok.
"...after his supporters stormed the capitol and destroyed everything and murdered five people..."
Total bullshit.
What are the odds it'll use AWS or Azure or some other cloud platform that shuts them down the same as they did all the others?
Yes.
If they do, it better be harder to crack than the other alternatives. Hackers will go after it immediately.

Millions and millions of Trump voters. This is a foolish take.

Two years too late
This will be a huge failure
The phrase "too little too late" comes to mind.
I guess the Trump reply gremlins have found their new grift
Hey guys. Anyone who did not fall for the Parler or Gab honeypot this is your third and final chance.
This is an official warning.
