Perhaps this is my mistake: I believed Voat had some sort of commitment to free speech rather than having subverses that are indistinguishable from reddit.

It's such a shame because there are very few places where people can have a honest and sincere discussion about Islam without having Muslims delete and hide and sensor comments because they are offended by human rights and people who claim bashing and raping woman and raping children is disgusting.

What is the point of Voat if it's subverses are censored... people may as well abandon Voat and flock to Reddit.

It does. You can make a sub with content you want, and it will not be shutdown or censored on you. But that does not mean that you get to decide what is good for everyone else. They get freedom also.

because there are very few places where people can have a honest and sincere discussion about Islam

So make a new sub. It only takes a few minutes. /v/IHateIslam or /v/TheTruthOfIslam or anything else. Actually you might want to visit /v/IslamUnveiled. That seems to be the type of sub you are looking for.

Everyone gets free speech here. Not just the free speech you want.

I want free speech for all, not just the free speech that mods consider to be yummy.

It's such a shame that Voat's ideology of free speech doesn't stretch to it's subverses because that is the only place where content exists.
