 then? It's for horrible culture warish discussions, but it grew out of SSC subreddit, so it's probably not too bad.

Some places people moved after the whole API thing:

 Do you have experience with any of these? The first two look like they have some strict moderation policies. 

 Perhaps comments and polls on Manifold can partly be used for those purposes? e.g. Poll: Do you agree that xyz?

I love Manifold but it is limited to asking will X happen instead of exploring why X will happen, or whether X is a good thing. Also, there's no porn.

Twitter's great too but it doesn't feel like a community. You reply to a big account and then usually nobody reads it. I don't ever get into conversations there like I used to on reddit.

LessWrong is a sacred place and I will not besmirch it with the culture war.

To be clear - you didn't try to join reddit and then immediately posted something and immediately got banned by any chance? Because that might happen with the most conformist content imaginable, they are very shadowban-happy. 

 I would dispute the charges of "white supremacism" since the FBI crime stats do not list white people as most law-abiding race. "White preeminencism" might be a more apt term, although most HBD types would concede that there are fields where white people aren't even second best.

Regardless, the problem is that reddit no longer allows you to defend ideas that are outside Overton window of a college dormitory. That's fine, it's their platform and they make the rules. But it means I need to find somewhere else to go.

 Based on your examples it's possible you got banned because of the views associated with the data rather than actual misinformation e.g. the infamous FBI crime statistic about disproportionate crime rates in African Americans is often used as a dog whistle by white supremacists, so they may have prematurely assumed that's where you were going with it

 My 11 year old account got suspended when I posted FBI crime stats. This wasn't banned from a particular subreddit, it was a ban from the whole site. I had some alts but they also got banned from large subreddits for trivial reasons. For instance, I was banned for "misinformation" when I said that six states did not have a minimum age to get married. In fact, the source I was citing was a few months out of date and now there only five states with no minimum marriage age. Meanwhile, lefties are allowed to cite easily disproved stats like "Texas executes hundreds of people a year" and "The United States spends more money on the military than healthcare." I don't need to be in an echo chamber I just want to be able to post without getting banned.

A place where you can post things that go against the majority opinion and you won't be shadow banned for it.
