I don't get how they can criticize strawman doctors promoting shitty habits to obese people when this is their entire understanding of medicine

Do they believe in based minorities?
Are they Civic Nationalists?
If so they're fucking faggots and should kill themselves.

On the Civic Nationalist front, they're actually the opposite extreme.
Not sure what based minorities are, but they seem extremely anti-minority.

That is a dude writing his own fap material, right there. I AM SO WOMANLY. I TOUCH MYSELF AND MY WOMANLYNESS IS SO BREASTFUL AND CURVACEOUS.

Jesus Christ, the commenters actually match the cringe-factor of the OP by talking about how proud they are for being able to see their penises and vaginas. Is this really how low their collective self esteem has sunk to?

Yes.

I'm pretty sure this is the essence of cringe.

Looking for sugar daddies: https://voat.co/v/announcements/1866053

As I sit here about to write one of the most difficult announcements yet, I was just reminded that my account is one month shy of three years old. (...)

But alas, I am powerless to keep Voat running without financial support. As of right now Voat has no solid commitments. Voat has always needed a financial partner whom had balls of steel and backing deep enough to give Voat the capabilities to run as an actual business (being able to hire staff and set itself apart from its competitors), not just a one man show. Potential investors have one or the other of these traits, but we have yet to find one with both. In this day and age, this is Voat’s unicorn.

In the past Voat has been lucky enough to be part of special programs designed for startup companies which gave us free licensing on various products and significantly reduced hosting costs. These programs have since expired and we are now paying full costs. Last month was our first non-discounted month on Azure and the usage was $6,600.90 USD. Donations, ads, and merchandise only put a dent in this and this is the primary reason why we have not launched another merchandise run. And begging for donations was always something we hated doing.

I’m writing this announcement to prepare this community, and the Voat family, for the possibility of a closure. I’m not certain on timing and I have too much invested in this place to give up just yet, so I cannot provide any timelines. In the meantime, I will soon be scaling back all Voat’s servers by at least 50%. I will also turn off some features that are resource intensive.

Voat needs funding. Without it, Voat will be no more.

Also: who thought that Windows Server + MSSQL (also known as the most expensive stack that doesn't involve IBM or Oracle) is a good combination for a niche website?
 
Well, if you recall, they were going to destroy Reddit, leaving it a hollowed out husk, because they thought they were most of Reddit. So... they were just all :optimistic::optimistic::optimistic: about their prospects, when they set it up.

Sort of like how /r/The_Donald claimed that they were the only reason anyone Reddits at all anymore, and if they took their toys and went home, Reddit would instantly die.

That, combined with their financial incompetence (made even more hilarious by the fact one of the co-founders was a finance major), is why they'll end up closing down for good. I give it another year or two, tops.

Donald posters are the ones who get run out of everywhere because they dont seem to understand that nobody in a sub about the New York Yankees gives a shit about Hilliary shenanigans.

God I wish I had saved that comment chain.
