If Snapzu doesn't allow people to created tribes such as fatpeoplehate then it is just as bad as Reddit. Only content which is illegal should be removed.
But then they turn around and say that there's no censorship. Now, what I think is that those are guidelines (not rules), and the fact that they're labelled "etiquette" implies this. However, to avoid confusion, the admins could fix all this by adding one word:

I must have missed it, you don't happen to remember where you saw that? My impression has been that this is a moderately curated community in order to maintain a friendly atmosphere. This leads me to believe downright hateful content might end up getting removed.
No censorship: We strongly believe that transparency and freedom of speech is vital to any community, especially online. For this reason, submitted content belongs to users and thus can never be removed. As the community grows and expands, we will continue keeping our censorship-free ideology as a top priority to uphold.
I was going to make a point about Reddit saying there's no censoring then selectively censoring while Sanpzu is about sharing and discussions. Except I just read the "About Snapzu" section and it says they don't censor. So I'm not sure how I feel. I mean, I think fat people hate is stupid and SHOULDN'T exist. It's a disgusting thing. But if a site is going to not allow a group like that...then it shouldn't say no censoring will occur. It should say "We allow for almost any tribe, except for: etc. etc."
Just as bad as reddit? How about different? It's not the same site, so if you're looking for a reddit clone with anarchistic free speech, try Voat.
What's nice about this is that you (hopefully!) won't get downvoted for this opinion. I disagree with you and I think you're on the wrong site based on what you value in a discussion forum, but I'm not going to downvote you. I think that's a core value being promoted here.

I mean, there's this in the etiquette on posting & commenting:
fatpeoplehate would seem to fall in the latter camp (i.e. hate speech), no?

Here you go. Under Our Mission, it says:
Huh, cool. Thanks :)
Interesting to see how that goes along with the etiquette, I suppose it means it's up to the community to follow it & encourage others to do the same.
