We do, but the average normie isn't going to pick up a book from something like Antelope Hill, and they don't download mods stuff from Based Mods. Simply hosting stuff that others ban isn't enough. I think someone needs to come up with a "gimmick", the gimmick is what attracts people, while also having the conviction to say "and we're not going to ban this topic". That's really hard to pull off though, for various reasons.

Regardless, so long as access to people is controlled, there is little hope of someone becoming truly successful while also espousing the most basic of controversial ideas or while on very obscure alternate platforms.
