> One of reddit's most common in-jokes is the moderation team on /r/the_donald ...

This right here is my point. I know that and you know that. I don't subscribe to that subreddit.

But I still hear about what goes on there sometimes, because you know, reddit, stuff leaks out a little if it's popular.

So that wouldn't be an in-joke if they weren't self-aware that they're outcasts on reddit. Now tell me a voat in-joke, because I don't know any.

Do you know what goes on at voat? I don't, so I just made an account. What I see looks like a community isolated, not a community scorned. It's much worse than any unmoderated community on reddit could ever be. That's what I think is dangerous.

From my point of view, reddit dropped the banhammer and this thing called Voat popped out.
