well, new 8kun pretty much like the old 8chan
same kind of posts
some good
some not so good
but I guess that is where Q posts
I wish there was a better way
We all wish there was a better way, but there isnt.
Even here, on FR, we dont have absolute freedom of speech. Lots of things are disallowed, and Its entirely possible if not probable that had Q chosen FR or similar sites, they would have been banned.
Free speech is a tricky thing, but its also as simple as can be when you get right down to it. Free speech means people are free to say and post whatever they want. Some people decide that they want to post porn or racist things but who is to decide? We can all see what happens when a company like Facebook decides to be the arbitrator and the results arent good.
In the end, if we want free speech, we have to understand that means some people will be posting things we dont like. Thankfully my mouse has a scroll feature and I can move past things Im not interested in. The chans also have the ability to filter out posters who post things that are objectionable to you.

Beautifully said!

thanks for your replies.
Actually this site mentioned has banned certain things in the past, which I am grateful for, gay porn, gore porn, etc. So I know they can ban. The same 20% of the bread is Jew hate, just like Zero Hedge only with clever pictures.
So when some one implies that I am not a Patriot because I am against these subversive posts, I say it is the other way around.
This business about we can say whatever we want ignores the fact that there are consequences for stirring up hatred.
Would anybody here care to go to Watts and start mouthing off about how they hate black people?
So ya, there is, unfortunately, some bad dudes messing up a good deal.
And yes, I say 8kun has done a lot of good things.
