If somebody is still at Reddit? They should be punished.

I go to reddit far more than voat. Why should people who go to reddit be punished?

I have an agenda, spreading truths about whites being oppressed, reddit has a huge userbase.

Because you're giving an evil empire money, clicks, attention.

Even if they don't go there, direct links to things like images hosted on reddit owned servers/domains tags you. Furthermore, voat generates a thumbnail from reddit hosted images and loads it inline. This is known as "hotlinking" and serves as a basis for ill-founded legal complaints, finger pointing, and statistics to inflame reddit users and rile them up. Additionally, it gives reddit admins a feel for the current environment on places like voat in order to direct their narratives. It also artificially inflates unique hits to justify more funding and continued operations effectively preventing the site from dying from attrition.

This is why if you even mention voat over on reddit, you get banned.

voat generates the inline thumbnail and saves it on its own servers. Reddit has no way of knowing based on the thumbnails. Quit spreading lies.
