They have crossed a line and they don’t realize it yet. A new platform called Parler is fast gaining popularity due to Twitters tyrannical censorship and it has been attracting many conservatives, libertarian and even free speech liberals because they promise to let people speak their mind without any regulation. Nothing except direct threats of violence or criminal activity is banned there.

As we speak Parler has been growing at a rate of over 500k new subscribers a week. With the suspension of Trump and other top conservatives, I expect that rate to at least triple in the coming weeks as their supporters move there.

Twitter and FB believe what they are doing will please the incoming democrat government into leaving them alone and not regulating them. Big mistake! The democrats I know will instead use this as justification to crack down harder on them and even break them up. Just watch. Twitter just shot them selves in the foot. They are likely to go the way of MySpace soon. Don’t forget that twitter was already dying a natural death before Trump came on the political scene and made it popular again.

Parler has been pulled from Google Playstore and Apple is currently threatening to pull it down.

You can't be a patriotic citizen and stand by and watch people plan a coup on your American app and do nothing about it.
People should know that free speech has consequences and should be ready to face them

You seem to have a very juvenile idea of politics and human behaviours.

Even in our growing up day, I didn't have to tell you to slap someone all I needed to do was wind both of you and before you knew it a fight erupts.
That's human behaviour. You don't need a degree on psychology to know this.

America was already in a volatile state with all the enmity between Democrats and Republicans, BLM and Antifa, leftists, etc. So for an incumbent president to try to exploit that to keep himself in the White House is very much selfish and evil. Clearly he doesn't care to sacrifice the lives of his supporters just for him to remain in the White House.

I've followed Donald Trump for about 10 years now since his days in the Apprentice and one thing you need to k ow is that he hates to lose.
He's a bad loser.
While that may have worked for him in business, in politics he should have accepted when he lost and should have stepped down honorably.

Talking about inciteful statements, even the last Endsars protest was peaceful until Nnamdi Kanu incited his fellow IPOBians to burn down the properties of Tinibu, Sanwo-Olu and those they deemed to be igbo enemies.
That's how a peaceful protest turned violent to the extent of grazing people's properties, looting people's businesses and even beheading police officers. Just because Nnamdi Kanu made a radio broadcast and it was sent to his fellow IPOBians.

What you don't know clearly outweighs what you do know about Poliitics and human behaviours.

I didn't insult you. Respect yourself or I promise we will both get banned today if you wan't us to go down that path.

Ok, if this is your standard then why does it only apply to one side? Should Bernie Sanders also be sanctioned for the supporter and former campaign staff of his that literally opened fire on Republican lawmakers with an assault rifle after being inspired by Sanders heated rhetoric against republicans??

Should the numerous democrat politicians who egged on violent BLM protesters also be sanctioned? Answer me this since you're the one with the "mature" view of politics and human behavior.

My own standard is simple and fair to both sides..If a politician does not explicitly call for violence then they should not be punished for however their supporters interpret their rhetoric because it's a very slippery slope that will consume politicians on both sides.

Trump as a business man can influence another OS to compete with Android and iOS(where those free speech is disabled) or he can create one..

What do you think?

Let him try, nobody is stopping him. It takes much more than money to run a succesful tech company. You might not have realised but the world is bigger than the US and very few outside the US will embrace a Trumpy OS, not like it will gain any popularity in the US.

Talk of social media Parler is filled with conspiracy theorists and will never be a place of interest to a controversial figure like Trump. Not like he is any better, but as someone who enjoys controversies a platform of just his base will never interest him.

Most parler users accept in the absence of liberal minds to troll and threaten parle is just another boring platform.. 75 million people might have voted for Trump but as power fades away from him he will get to realise his true fan base is <50K.

Twitter has built a reputation across the globe that sites like parle will never match. Trump can't run a succesful media platform and he knows it. It takes much more than money to run the media. How succesful has newsmax gotten after embracing Trump? The had a periodic hike but can the match CNN?

Forget about all those on Nairaland crying parle. Very few of them have visited the platform nor have an account or even drop a message on the platform.

In Nigeria,they helped vandals to raise money,honor them with the blue tick, gave them #EndSARS logo but in the US they are tracking them for arrests,banning all the federal employees that participated in the riots and now they have locked out the President from their platforms.

Guys read mynd quote carefully and understand that APC already owns dis place. This is their site so be careful what you post here. That is why they will just log u out and once you login again, they will send ur location to ur email.
How can a sane human being compare what happened in us capitol to Endsars protest? They dint compare it to BLM where even police stations were torched because it became a world wide movt.
They sent the army to kill peaceful protesters while the police ran away from thugs the politicians equipped during the past election. Those who stole and stores palliative that were carted away by the real owners how come the AGF has not started prosecuting them. Dont worry mynd and Co, the judgement of Nigeria is upon you all and when the time comes justice will meet everybody.

Farewell.....Freedom of speech

[img]https://media./images/d16fbefd26728aea1845c0ee4167eab3/tenor.gif[/img]

Freedom of Speech does not give you the right to endanger the lives of others even if you have a point to make - there are channels even if it is a violent protest or a revolution. The gift of speech does not warrant the entitlement to make fools of others just because you believe your opinion counts more than the views of others

This is exactly what the congress people were dragging with Mark Z before. Why will a single person (in this case the very corrupt Jack Dorsey) name himself as the Judge, Jury and Executioner and just decide to ban people just like that without following any legal process. It's like the people on twitter are now in business with our very own Nairaland mods.

Was it Endsars that was burning the properties or the government did everything to stop the protest. Stop pointing out that all things that went wrong after Endsers protest to the protest itself.

He absolutely can. One thing they can't take away from him is his influence and the strong following he commands. I believe any new free speech platform he throws his weight behind will definitely grow faster. They will grow without him regardless because with this rubbish Twitter and co. just did, they have created a demand for free speech supporting tech platforms and the private sector will respond accordingly. But Trumps endorsement will certainly help as well.

When politicians talk of "fight" they don't mean it literally and you're an slowpoke if you don't even know this. Trump said, and I quote "we are marching to the Capitol to CHEER our great republican leaders on.

I know I should have probably massaged your ego since it is all you have but by telling you how little you know on this issue I'm actually doing you more good.

I've never been a Democrat supporter because I know they're worse than Republicans are. I'm only opening your eyes to the obvious. Trump this time was wrong.

Why did Trump call for the protest in the first place? (Just to cheer Republicans you say?)
What by your own understanding did he mean by fighting for their Democracy?
What did the crowd mean by fighting for Trump? (which clearly we witnessed by their actions).
Why after staging a failed protest has he finally decided to concede?

This are basic questions that you don't even need a high IQ to point you to the obvious answers you seem oblivious of.

LMAO you sent me an edited video made by a partisan democrat organization that has been trying to get Trump out of office since his election then you come and tell me you're not a liberal. Go sit down my friend. How can a blind man open the eyes of another man.

1. Americans are free to peacefully assemble and protest for any reason they like. Trump didn't organize the protests, his supporters did. he just jumped on board and promoted it when he found out about it.

2. Like I said 'fight' is a common term used by politicians. It means persevering in the struggle for your cause, whatever that cause may be. If you havn't heard this term used by even democrats before then I don't think you're as observant to the obvious as you claim.

3. The crowd meant continuing in their support for Trump and election accountability. If they all thought he meant get violent then the Capitol raid would have been worse because they would have ALL gone there. Not just few.

4. He conceded AFTER Congress certified Bidens win at which point the election was truly over and he had no other legal recourse.

Baba you sound slow sha. Was Obama inciting violence here too:
