I have been to many forums. What I found is that right now there is more freedom of speech in Russia concerning the Ukraine than has ever existed on any topic at any forum. (The media is almost as bad) From what I have found, they all seem to be indirectly run by the government. It is as Lenin said. "The best way to control the opposition is to lead it ourselves." And from the conversations I have managed to have to some degree at those other forums, all the members are just fine with that. Will things be any different here? I doubt it. But feel free to prove me wrong. Also, Frank Zappa did a song about TV called, "I'm the slime." In it there is a lyric that I have found to be all too true. It says, "Don't go for help, no one will heed you."
This category is supposedly about philosophy. Most other forums also have a philosophy category. They are meaningless. Because without being able to speak the truth, no actual philosophy is possible. I will show you some memes concerning freedom of speech. If you follow the cult of lies and fantasy over reality, (and chances are you do) feel free to tell me which one offends you the most.

How do you know what “The Truth” is? What’s your process, and can you defend it?
As far as any forum is concerned, to them the whole problem with my truth is that I can defend it. You could have a forum with 100 of the absolute top smartest people on the planet on it and I could still defend it. Far beyond their ability to disagree. That is if any of them were foolish enough to disagree.
