I guess they decided to include all the active reddit alternatives, for fairness or something (I guess they didn't know about The Fempire). I probably wouldn't have put Voat in, since I'd assume that no left-winger would want to move to a website that's even further to the right than reddit.
Considering that Voat forces JS and even the code warnings to users make fun of checking privilege, they aren't going to be friendly to Anarchists and probably work to doxx them. I wouldn't trust that place...
The floodgates have opened

Ah. I guess it's up to the moderators and the web hosting company to make sure neither of those happen.

Cool. Hopefully we'll get a bunch of pleasant contributors out of it!

It would have been pretty funny to take it over, though.
