Voat is the Symptom but not the Problem. Horseshoe Theory

Ok so let's say you are right about the loss of a job or whatever......they are obviously living a lie and will never be happy. Since I have left Reddit and became a part of Voat I have made it obvious of my views to my employer with things.

With my most recent job it was WELL known of my views upon blacks. Thing is that I didn't let it effect my job performance, but you can bet I skated the line. I say that because provocation is the game people play and blacks do it the worst.

I wouldn't discuss my views while on company time, and I wasn't disrespectful with it either I was just assertive and I will always be. They never had a problem with it at all. They did have a problem with paying for my injury I got so I sued them and won.

Far as 4chan being nice......no they are all about influence and provocation to amuse themselves. It is played off as the mentality, but this is just how movements are.

Weak people seek a leader and every so often one pops up on 4chan so they use influence to entertain their fantasy. It is pathetic and I will always view Anon as that.

Same with people that switch user names on platforms.

You might be projecting your personal value of truth and integrity unto others, many value it less than having a stable income and most will even value it less than having peace with coworkers and family. As far as I can tell there appear to be many people who can live happily without these values.

Personally I'd consider it misery, just like you. Albeit there are topics that I will not even put effort into researching because my country has strict hatespeech laws, and that annoys me as well.

They are provocateurs and they aren't nice, or at least the people on /b/ and /pol/ aren't which are not the only boards on 4chan, but I still think that they are nicer to each other simply because it's nearly impossible to make a personal insult on an anonymous board.

The people on facebook and twitter aren't nice, just read the comments under donald trumps tweets, it's filled with snarky hatred with barely any facts or arguments, just snarky insult after insult. Say something that would be similarly controversial on 4chan or 8chan (the paygap is real, we're equal or something like that) and there will be a handful of insults but there will also almost always be people who engage in actual discussion and arguments and in my experience they actually make up the majority. That's a big part of the reason I became more right-libertarian, instead of replying with "wow I can't you believe you just said that, omg" etc. they actually engaged in mostly polite discussion.

Voat can be a lot like that at times, too.

Not projecting as it is from watching others. Just so many miserable people that I have met over time that pretend to be something they are not. One even killed himself (something I have zero sympathy for) he contacted me before he did it as well and I said that he is weak if he goes through with it.

Well he did like a bitch. One less I feel. The personal insults thing still effects many of those tweenagers out there on the message boards I am sure you can agree to that which is why they keep doing it.

Just pathetic people that find a way to control some meaningless aspect of something.

As for Twitter and Facebook I say that is controlled opposition. No way there is that many hateful people that want to be that way. If there is holy fuck we have a real problem in this world.
