It's because most people fall into 3 camps:
- those who want an uncensored platform so they can be assholes
- those who want an uncensored platform, without wanting to be an asshole (many of the people on this site)
- those who don't want to be on a platform where random people can be assholes to them
The third camp is the largest, and it doesn't take many people in the first camp to make the platform not worth using for them.
