It is confusing to create an entire instance that is devoted to one thing. I would much prefer joining The Garden as a community @ whatever instance you choose. I think you are going against the basic design intentions of the fediverse. All the best.

A great lesson in how the federation works. Thanks for posting.

I generally agree with your statement. In addition to the hateful community, voat was being manipulated (IMO) by external organization(s) to amplify the hate. Possible reasons were that voat was a honeypot for law enforcement and that a free voat was a threat to the already controlled corporate sites like reddit. Perhaps I'm being overly paranoid, but the antisemitism in particular never seemed entirely organic.
In the end, voat still had potential but it died for the same reasons reddit is failing - centralized ownership. The voat owner / host eventually just called it quits and shut it down. Why? Perhaps voat outlived it's usefulness to the big three (CIA / FBI / NSA).

"clown world" was at least initially a reference to how the CIA meddles in the affairs of the world (Clowns In America).

correction "they" going to...

Thanks to the host!
