The same people that are killing off Conservative websites are the ones the GOP wants to reward with 55,000 extra visas for cheap labor coders.

Class action lawsuit in the billions of dollars. Enough to bankrupt Twatter and Fecesbook. Every single conservative can sign on to the lawsuit and any others who wants to get a few bucks after the lawyers take most of it. We don’t care because the goal is to slay the evil giants.

Yes, they are privately owned businesses, but so were the baker’s businesses and look what happened to them. Kill them with their own blade right through the heart of what hurts them the most.

They basically have a monopoly right; so use that. Force them to be broken up into little pieces so they are rendered moot. Sweep the pieces into a dung heap and don’t look back except to throw a match on the gasoline soaked pile.

Let GAB, a non ideological Twitter type site, take over from Twatter. Slay the beasts legally and finally.

Tim Berners-Lee who designed the web, designed it as part of the Internet, to mesh on top of the Internet. The Internet by design was peer-to-peer connectivity between coequals. It was never designed to be controlled as a resource choked by a couple of monopolies.

This was one aspect of net neutrality that was never discussed. One bad choice in the design of the Internet did contribute to its decline, and that was choosing 32 bit IP addresses. If we had not run out of these IPV4 addresses, the Internet would have been substantially more peer-to-peer oriented, as it was originally. That was the architecture's original design.

The idea of Google or Facebook dictating content is complete blasphemy to those who designed and engineered the Net, most of whom, if not conservative, could be at least characterized as libertarian.

Zuck is a Traitor, and hopefully will be dealt with as one.

I understand this is unfair.

Legal actions necessary maybe can be taken.

Sounds like it is time for a conservative Facebook type of company.

Sounds like Patreon, bitchute, and gab.ai offer at least some of the features of the companies mentioned in the article.

Maybe this loss here can be turned into a strength with a slew of powerful internet platforms for conservatives emerging as a result.

All kinds of people trying to improve technical skills and their ability to communicate.

FR is as close to Facebook as I would ever get. Thank God for FR, and if we ever get slammed, then I will really be worried.

Leftists have made social media such a vile cesspool since Trump won. Why would any conservative with a life to live want to swim in that?

“Any organization not explicitly right-wing eventually becomes left-wing” is John O’Sullivan’s axiom. He was a regular contributor & editor of National Review long before it imploded.

Mark Zuckerberg is nothing more than the person the Deep State globalists chose to PRETEND to be the entrepreneur who created Facebook.

The TRUTH is, Facebook is THE FAKE STORE FRONT for a profiling and surveillance operation run by the CIA/globalists/Deep State masquerading as a social media platform.

Feed the globalist's police state pig called Facebook? No thanks.

I have a very large family, and many friends. I use Facebook to keep in touch with them, spread all across the United States, mostly. I DON’T use FB for my political news, relying on online websites and television news I trust on both sides of the issues.

I don’t believe that social media sites, Facebook, but especially Twitter, reflect the views of many people in America. Twitter, for one, seems to be a place where the perpetually outrageously outraged (!!11!) spit and fume about things of which I hear little from the IRL people with whom I interact.

No one needs to or should rely on Facebook for news.

Absolute MUST-READ article about these would-be tyrant techbillionaires and their plans to control everyone and everything.

They would not have anywhere near the wealth and power they enjoy had they been born into the mind numbing oppression of Cuba or the chaos of Venezuela.

This is true.

I used to be able to search Free Republic via google and find the phrase or post I wanted to reference.

Google no longer indexes FR posts.

Except for a couple of pages, it has disappeared from the search engines.

The same people that are killing off Conservative websites are the ones the GOP wants to reward with 55,000 extra visas for cheap labor coders.

And we just gave them a tax cut from 35% to 21% and stuck the tab to individual Americans.

I have removed myself from Facebook and Twitter. Why should I produce content for people who want me dead?

If it were an even playing field, I would engage. But it is not.

So, here I am. Pockets stuffed with money and looking for somebody who will play it straight. Who will take my money?

I don’t feel destroyed Republicans are finally doing what we demand of them and Trump will be the oldest man elected to the presidency in 2020 so what’s the point here?
