The Tech Giants purge Trump, conservatives, effectively 74 million people

“Welcome to West China”

So sayth Roger Simon at the Epoch Times.

Did you ever wonder what it’s like to live in a one-party state?

Well, wonder no more. You’re living in one.

As a business plan, chucking off half the nation may not work so well?

Censorship just got racked up to Defcon 2.0. It’s bad and it’s going to get worse. The good news is, the Left overplay their hands.

Twitter has permanently banned The President of the United States, as well as Sidney Powell, Michael Flynn, and Lin Wood. In reply, Rush Limbaugh deactivated his Twitter Account. Limbaugh had has 88 million followers on twitter and has 35 million listeners on his radio show. But the purge is sweeping, Facebook already banned Trump “indefinitely”. Not only that but Facebook has been going after conservative groups too.  Steve Bannon’s podcast was also shuttered by YouTube over “false 2020 election claims”.

In response there will be an exodus to other platforms like Parler. In preparation for that Apple and the Google Playstore both told Parler it must obey their rules or it will be delisted. But what does this say about Apple? They spent a lot of money advertising their strong privacy policy. This blows that away and marks Apple as an activist tool of the left wing. How confident are you now that Apple won’t use your iphone messages against you “for the national good”, etc?

It’s looking like only the three or four people with phones outside the two giants will be allowed (and for how long) to get social media messages from the current US President. Is anyone still wondering if this is a Coup?

Glenn Reynolds says:  “This does seem like a good way to re-unify the Republican Party, though.” There is that.

As it happens, Donald Trumps popularity rose after the Capitol hill protest:

A source close to the polling firm tells Newsmax that the rolling survey saw Trump’s approval soar to 51% on Thursday night. Trump’s approval has been up overall, jumping from 45% just before Christmas. “Americans are disgusted that cities burned for months and Washington and the media did nothing,” our source says, “But they still like Trump.”

The Tech Giants have monopolies to wreck, and the sooner the better. Has there ever been a better reason to look at their competitors?

Twitter has disabled the hashtag #1984.

It’s probably a good time to read the book again.

It took only two years to go from disappearing Milo and Alex Jones to banning content said to "amplify narratives that undermine faith in NATO."
Imagine where the line will be two years from now.
Censorship is an intoxicating power that endlessly expands until it's smashed.

“Smashed” it’ll have to be. There is no way to recover what we’ve lost through the system. They will not give up their ill gotten gains.

For example, Californians thought they could re assert themselves over their bimbo-fascist governor through our recall process - not to be, as yesterday he signed a law declaring all 2021 elections shall be by mail in ballot ONLY.

To those who claim the 2020 election wasn’t stolen - explain that.

Right. My greasy guv might as well have admitted it himself.

Trump should use some of his $billions to help set up that alternative social media infrastructure.

I keep reading it's going to happen. Saw on Twitter the other day that DJT has over $100 million available to start his own platform.
