I’ve been trying to tell you all. But I keep getting ridiculed.

Expectedly so.

Qanon is real.

The moment you accept that the media is far worse than you anticipated and truly is 1984. You will begin to acknowledge stuff like Q is the real deal.

The 20th is going to be wild.

And whilst you all begin to wake up and swallow your pride about being brain washed to hate trump (I did too til I found Q)

See what trumps team are doing. And they are not making a song and dance of it, and the fake news media are not reporting it


Take your masks off

It’s real. But nowhere near the level they report it as

As for your...'there are other platforms'....Errr...are you referring to the platforms under constant attack from leftist activist groups...doxxing, hacking threatening adverisers..build their own infrastructure...the platforms who have to regularly change payment processors?

Is that what you think the lawmakers who gave Silicon Valley its advantages and protections intended to happen? Or is this cartel abuse that the Democrats won't give a feck about.

Where did I say it didn't?

It's literally impossible to eradicate all of it. Until moderation can be properly automated the whole thing still relies on AI flagging and user reporting. Even then, there is not enough manpower to read, assess and close every single one.

However, it is easier to eradicate groups or specific types of vitriol from specific sources that are being repeatedly flagged for contravening the rules in place. An individual that decides to live stream a murder can't be stopped until someone flags it – as that would mean some sort of minority report style system! Individuals posting randomly are also far harder to anticipate and/or monitor.

As before, groups or people posting about trending topics that are being monitored because they are becoming a growing, noticeable issue? Far easier. That's where the manpower is, not focused on Janet live-streaming her cat being kicked across a room on facebook.

And as BJ (LOLE) points out – are you suggesting only right leaning content that breaks the rules gets banned? And none gets through the net? I think you're being way too partisan on this one. It's nonsense

Re. platforms – twitter is massive. Several orders of magnitude larger than Parler, Gab etc. It's main form of content is therefore way more diverse – and not just vitriolic. So it's actually pretty easy to understand why platforms like parler and gab that get setup or hijacked to become a gathering place for one single group, that mainly post vitriol, conspiracy theories and other assorted dross, get targeted and shut down.

It happens on the larger platforms but a) they're far more strict with their terms vs. gab et al, and b) that sort of s*** isn't the main content on there. It's diluted by 'average' people posting mundane dross about their cats (not Janet).

And it's not just the right. Amusingly the antifa international group got banned from teespring for simply having the word 'antifa' on their shirts... amusingly on the same site 'Camp Auschwitz' merch is still doing a roaring trade. So, it works both ways, but maybe not if you're partisan and don't bother (or want) to be objective.

Also are you suggesting that the 'right' don't do exactly the same thing to the 'left'? You could literally rewrite your second para and replace 'leftist' with 'right-wing'. Let's not pretend they're not both at it, all the time.

Biden inauguration on 20th is supposed to be done online. But the military are being brought in by coach. The secret service will be out in their numbers and huge apparatus are being erected in dc. Does it make sense if it’s all online/no big crowds?

Can only post one link at a time to coincide with the above so I’ll make a start...

Switching over to GAB myself now along with looking at stopping using Whats App.

Always prided myself on wanting to engage with the widest range of people possible in terms of political debate but feel now that given the one-sided bias of the most popular platforms, that can no longer be done.

Agree with the first para – but flipping from wide engagement to extremely narrow (gab)... seems a bit extreme. Also surely plays into the hands of those on either side that want to shut down constructive, rational debate. I'm not sure you could have been that willing if you feel all the major platforms are basically Gab for the 'left'. It's an observable fact that that simply isn't the case. It's not without bias, sure – any platform is.

But to jump so easily from mild bias into almost total bias? Seems strange from someone apparently willing to try and be open to others.

No wonder you got sucked into this world. I’m excited to see where you go next when the 20th passes by without incident.
