Our paths did not cross during our time here, but I'm still saddened by your loss. I hope to see you again somewhere on the other side of the bridge not yet built.
In case you delete your account completely, I saved your farewell words. If you would like me to delete them, just say so.
It is time for me.
As news subs refuse to take measures to keep hate or partisan speech away, my account has turned into a troll account for nazis. I enjoy trolling racists, but I don't want the main website I use to gather content and discuss things to be a platform designed almost solely to promote intolerance, and my comments to be almost solely made to fight racist shills. As I said before, having rules is not against free speech. News should be as neutral as possible, using various sources about the same topic, and you should not permit hate speech or propaganda into these subs : free speech isn't anarchy, and racists can always go to v/niggers to spread their fears without being censored at any moment.
No visible opposition faces the racism flood in comments, and I begin to consider that fighting here does harm me while I don't get anything from it, since you can't convince a racist, no matter how much logic you use. I didn't want to change voat to my personal beliefs, just to show into comments that some reasonable and tolerant people still browsed that website. My rants and trolls won't be a discordant voice to racist ideology no more.
I left Reddit definitively during the Great Pao Shitstorm, when the servers over here began to stabilize, just before the Goat began to check our 0s and 1s to fight DDOS attacks. I was stunned by the US SJW ideology, as for US feminism or fat logic. Things that don't really exist in France and that are so hard to believe it is even possible. When reddit began to do favors to SJW, censor free speech by banning from the WHOLE website discordant thoughts, and to prepare the maketing of its users and biggest subreddits, it was time for me to leave.
Today, I was searching kittens on reddit for my GF, the last use I made of the site. I didn't saw the front page for like 2 months. Somehow, tired by my previous comments on voat, I came to reddit front page. And there, I learned this happened yesterday, and that at no time I saw anything on this here in top threads, while I passed too much time fighting racists I found on v/news or v/videos or shit. And I realized it was over.
So, farewell, voat. You were in my eyes the possibility of a better reddit, the one I knew long time ago. I was wrong, you're the bastard child of leddit and /pol/.
Farewell @guiness2, the only name I remember fighting against, you were exactly how I like them. Sorry I won't troll you anymore.
I give my last upvote to this thread. Make good use of it, and see you in hell, motherfuckers.

Trop souvent, on se fait une idée du bien et on la plaque sur autrui. On dit : "ça, c'est ton bien", et on impose ce bien à l'autre. Aimer l'autre, ce n'est pas aimer un alter ego. Il faut laisser l'autre être autre et se dépouiller de tout ce qu'on pourrait projeter sur lui, se dépouiller de soi pour aller vers l'autre, dans l'écoute et la bienveillance.

Damn. He was a good writer, and I wish I had a chance to speak with him. He will be missed.
Edit: Can anyone provide a good translation of his goodbye quote?
[–] Frums ago
I got remorses on this, so I logged one last time to try to translate :
"Too many times, we have our idea about Good and we apply it on others. We say "this, is your Good", and we force this Good to others. To love others, is not to love an alter ego. We must let others be others and get rid of what we could project on him, get rid of our self to go towards others, through listening and benevolence"
Seems easy, but damn I wish I was able to do this.

Much obliged. I hope you've found a better community.
That's a beautiful quote, I'd steal it and take it to /v/greatquotes, but it's a bit long.
