Trump should just open his own news outlet.

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.

LMAO. And you think other OS will not be created. First rule of business: when there is a strong demand, the supply will eventually come. Right now apple, twitter and Co have created a strong demand for free speech supporting tech platforms and bet your last dollar the supply will come strong and hard. You really think you can just silence half of a country of over 300 million people with no consequences because you are too big? It’s such arrogance that has led to the demise of bigger corporations throughout history. I genuinely hope you don’t run any business.

In the early 90’s liberals controlled virtually the entire American mainstream media. They had a monopoly on what views were broadcast to the public. Conservatives cried out and Fox News was created in 1996. Now do your own google research on which news network has the most viewers in America today, I won’t tell you myself. Lmao.

By the way learn to spell “bankruptcy” properly.
let me educate you on something, even if this so called app start gaining popularity, its still going to be regulated.
so what you trying to say is boko haram can post videos on there that can instigate violence and you will tell me dey have freedom of speech.

the fact is there are standers to everything now so dont expecte much from it.
just like how trump banned tik tok from usa for reasons known to him this so called app can also be banned by another president

That Bernie Sanders wasn't sanctioned doesn't immunize Trump. Both of them should have been sanctioned.

You need to understand the gravity of what happened. But if you're a Donald Trump die hard fan then you can never see it.

If you followed from the beginning of this discourse.... His view was never to spare trump but the one-sideness of twitter..... Stop twisting the discourse.... Typical of Democrats.... TWISTERS

Telling some one he is ignorant of what he doesn't know is clearly an insult to Nigerians but how else do you expect me to say it?

If Bernie Sanders also incited violence then he should have been sanctioned. That he wasn't sanctioned doesn't immunize Trump from it.

Like I said what you don't know on this issue clearly outweighs what you do know.

Here's a clip of their inciteful statements. Not to mention the tweets.

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.

What did you just say?? That igbos burned down Tinubu and Sanwo olu properties? Now I can see why u voted for Buhari.....u guys are sooo dumb and naive

Gab.com is better; has it's own servers and infrastructures. Not at the mercy of silicon valley or any OS. Parler doesn't have it's own servers.

I know Gab. It doesn’t have the kind of publicity that Parler has and its mostly populated by fringe elements to be honest. But if they have their own servers and infrastructures that’s a step in the right direction. Parler should do the same because now I’m hearing that Amazon, which is the parent company of Parlers server host, wants to kick them offline completely too.

So much for freedom of speech, yet they never censored AOC or Kamala when they were inciting violence on these platforms last year.
They actually took down tweets (mine inclusive) pointing out the massive violent riots that took place in the name of BLM and they gave free rein to the politicians who supported them financially even.
GoFundMe is a part of the anti free speech cult as well.

Don't be stupid. Biden has already given Facebook, Google and Twitter employees positions in his administration. He plans on creating a taskforce with Google's CEO as the head of the taskforce.
Big tech gave him the election & he is paying them back.

The funniest part of it all is the Nigerians who decried a proposed social media censorship bill by the government are cheering for this.
Anyway, Sidney Powell is more intelligent than 80% of the American population, she'll survive.

If cutting them to size is what they plan to do, they won't be giving them positions in the incoming administration.
Big tech serially contribute to the campaign of Democrat & GOP congressmen & senators and that's why they can't touch them. Same with the big banks, Hollywood & academia (especially the Teacher Unions and Democrats)

But twitter urged on people who burnt properties in Nigeria in the name of EndSARS.

Jack actually asked people to donate funds into their accounts.

"I don't care if your country burns as long as mine does not"

See how fast those who invaded Capitol were labeled insurrectionists but when people invaded high security places in Nigeria like Airports and attempted to invade Aso Villa, they were "peaceful" EndSARS protesters

Unfortunately people only ten to be myopic. No one has said protesting is not allowed. Nigeria protest was peaceful and you have the police bringing thugs to cause violence. Things got out of hand after the lekki shooting and till today no one has been prosecuted. If they want to go after people that destroyed properties, let the justice start from who ordered the killing at lekki. Everyone talks about free speech but there is a limit to free speech. Free speech does not include planning destructions, spreading lies and deceit that can cause harm. Even when Sowore criticized the governmnt he was picked up and you guys clapped. I'm sorry, you cant have it both ways.

One of the best things you can be in life at some point is to be neutral.
It helps you see things clearly.

The fact that I'm neither pro or anti-biafra helps me know that Kanu is not the way to go.

Also as much as im a Trump fan, the fact that I'm neither pro Democrat or Republican helps me know that Trump messed up by not conceding and also made it worse by the Capitol Hill fiasco.

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:

Except that u are comparing apples to grapes.
EndSars was a protest against police brutality which I am very sure you acknowledge and that protests was largely peaceful until govt sponsors started using thugs and miscreants to disrupt the protest.
The insurrection in the US is to subvert democracy and massage a King wanna be and a tyrants inflated ego. They tried to invade the capitol to disrupt a democratic process of certifying a duly elected president. Just because their supreme leader said theere was massive fraud doesn't make it true. Over 60 court cases thrown out in court mostly by conservative judges including judges appointed by Trump plus 2 supreme court losses....which has a 6-3 majority conservative. Trump's own AG who have acted as his personal lawyer all along also said no evidence of wide scale voter fraud. The FBI and head of cyber security and many other relevant agencies came to the same conclusion. So Mr Powerful mod....chief banner, stop comparing apples to grapes.
