They're professional umbrage takers. Well, I guess most don't make money off of it, so most of them are casual or amateur umbrage takers. How else are they supposed to validate their ideas and existence if they need to create something instead of blubbering about what they hate?

It's just such foreign concept to me, to actually care so much that a group would leave one site and go to another, regardless of the reasons why. Literally cannot make sense of it. I suppose any rational person wouldn't though.

The only way I can even logically justify it is in a business sense. Unless they're financially invested in Voat failing, such as being part of a competing firm, there's no fucking reason beyond butthurt.

Have an upgoat for using the word umbrage. Also. Insightful.
