I hope so.  Keep all the delusions contained to one social media platform.


Then round them up and put them into camps, right?  ::)

The left has to cheat and silence because their ideas are so unsound.

Is Parler gone? If so - how in the hell does ANYONE think that this cancel culture isn’t an existential threat to the freedom of being American.
I hope it’s not true - I’m not on social media but my wife just told me that it’s been removed.

I think this is all part of Ron’s plan to take the Getbig G&O global and dominate social media.

Amazon suspended Parler from its webhosting services. Everyone has to work around the censorship, oligarchs, monopolies, corpocracy, and plutocracy which liberals cheer on in 2021.





The same bloodthirsty people from 1917 Russia are quickly gaining charge but the Dems & Reps are busy going through any and all mental contortions to label the other side "nazis". Somehow the media successfully took Bolsheviks out of the equation. You're either a "Nazi" or a "Nazi". Absolute social-climbing cowards ignoring the elephant in the room.  Now, Fox's Jeanine Pirro is calling Parler's deplatforming "kristallnacht" so as not to be outdone by Arnold Kristallnacht. You idiots have you're own holocaust that happened to you in the Soviet Union which you can use to promote guilt and gain political leverage, stop with this "Nazi" nonsense. 'Communists' and 'Bolsheviks' were far worse than Nazis, even General Patton said so. Use those words, they're more applicable.

There is no end to the deplatforming in sight:

Parler is gone.  It fall down and go "plop".  Couldn't even get a "boom".

I think the fact that Amazon Cloud dropped Parler just like that, along with Apple and Android Play controlling things is just the beginning of big media controlling what you see and hear.  Dont like something. Bye bye. Forget about the basic free speech right.   If they don't like it, just block it.  A few years ago, this would never have happened, but now, censorship, bullying and whatever is the norm, whether on the internet, at colleges, etc.    You can't even debate anymore without someone calling you names, or worse.   

Now Parler will get another server, but Amazon should of had the courtesy of giving them a chance. If people think that trying to silence others will work without debating their opinions, they are very wrong. All it does is push it to other sites and fringes, and more people will get more frustrated.

Hey, I am all against promoting violence, and if you decide to plot to kill someone, or build a bomb to hurt people, then you need to go from the site or any social media site.  But I have had friends get suspended for just talking about their faith, or their opinions (non violent). Crazy.  Worse, be a little sexy, or complaining about someone being fat, and bam... suspension. WTF? George Carlin and other comedians would go crazy at what is going on.

Very inconsistent post. Against promoting violence, but arguing against censorship,

there's a difference between advocating harming people and giving one's own opinions ,

censoring, silencing and banning people or organizations creates extremists , i would rather know what other people are honestly thinking.

Quick question for those that are tech savvy. I've recently made some changes at home with regards to what apps/programs I use both on my home PC and phone. I'd like your input/suggestions, as I know some of you are very skilled in these areas (programming, IT etc).

I've removed all Facebook products (Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp) I once had due to my concerns with privacy. I've now downloaded Signal as my designated chat app.

Is this a safe alternative? Would you recommend something better? Is it the best option to replace something like WhatApp or Facebook Messenger?

I've also stopped using Google Chrome and instead now use Duck Duck Go as my web browser.

Thank you for any feedback.

LINE has end-to-end encryption messaging, stores the information on the phone and not on a server and 'cannot be decrypted by LINE's servers'.

Does LINE have a welcoming and easy to use interface?

Does it have all the same functions as WhatsApp and Signal (i.e. texting messages, pictures, videos, voice recordings and free phone calls)?

My own opinion (as a liberal): eventually they need to bring these back, maybe not quite yet. There are freedom of speech issues even though these are private companies. I think after what happened last week, which was beyond scary and has never happened before except by a foreign power during war, there truly has been a safety issue. Maybe right after inauguration is the best timing, but not a good idea to shut off free exchange of ideas long term.

I am by no means an expert, but following someones advice I switched to a browser called Brave that I've been pretty happy with.  It blocks load of trackers and stuff like that automatically (no extensions required)

It uses DuckDuckGo as the default search engine, and you can open a TOR window from it without actually firing up TOR.  It's also got crypto functionality for those that dabble.  Nice and fast too
