It’s called FREEREPUBLIC

Even Free Republic bans people if they don't line up.

See?

Why don’t we already have it with all the rich people in politics.

You do not need to be in that valley to set up a conservative site.

The problem is, that if there is no restriction of any kind, porn and language is going to run rampant.

Nor does anyone want stuff like the *challenges* that incite stupid behavior in kids that is getting them killed or injured.

We do already - it’s called FReeRepublic!!!!!
Yay! We get the 3,510th popular website in America!

Liberals are allowed to get their messages across on Twitter (7th) and Facebook (3rd).

______________

I remember when we were in the top hundred

I am pretty sure I am remembering that correcty

And also the relatively new (two years and counting) totally Free Speech and uncensored site on the block that is growing like gangbusters (well over 550,000 members to date and has been in the news a good bit lately and is getting 10,000+ new member sign ups daily ) is Gab.ai

* *
The site has free accounts and paid member accounts available. After getting booted from all the 'Masters of the Universe web platforms last year I came across this one while it was still in its infancy and it is now growing like gangbusters. It might be a good fit for some of you looking for some alternative free speech spaces but understand it is like a wild wild West frontier kind of place but you can carve out yourself a nice niche area.

So try and not get your feelings hurt too easily. It's definitely not for (politically) thin skinned people for sure but your speech will not not be censored or restricted. It will take a little getting used to as for as navigation goes but you'll quickly get the hang of it.

OBTW. Gab.ai is also the home of the likes of Jerome Corsi and Alex Jones has an account there as well and quite a few other notables too numerous to count and more finding their way there daily. Take a look.

But thoughtful liberals with alternative views may be better and more fairly treated in this new context as opposed to how conservatives are treated on the mainstream platforms.

This place was never the same after the Great Purge (April '07).

“You do not need to be in that valley to set up a conservative site.”

No, you don’t, but that was what Don Jr. was proposing so I was just responding to his comment as to where he’d go to find the money to start his new Conservative Facebook. That said, the talent you need to craft it is mostly in the Silicon Valley. The problem is that most of the “talented people” there are not conservatives. Keokuk, Iowa doesn’t have a surplus of techies.

Because up until recently it wasn't needed because until recently social media platforms were largely neutral.

Social media platforms have changed their business models based on pressure from radical liberal activist groups. They are now openly targeting conservative ideology.

Not me! I’m fine with FreeRepublic. I try, insofar as I am able, to steer clear of the “social media” folks, and I truly do hope that the one’s that are out there today get regulated, because they do not wish our Republic well.
