Boycott Twitter - use iMessage or something else but stop giving them your business or even following other people. They don’t want YOU and they’ve made that clear.

It's not about messaging grandma.

It's about spreading conservative ideas.

Twitter has 300 million users. It's one of the top ten most popular social media sites in the United States. It's a platform, not a publisher, and it shouldn't be in the business of regulating legal content anymore than Verizon or T-Mobile suspending your cell phone service over "hate speech" violations.

We need to fight for our place and if conservatives can't see this, we're hopeless.

Amen, Brother. This is all about shutting down our ability to leverage widely held platforms to try and influence voters.

Agree.

Social media platforms began with a laissez-faire attitude toward content.

That all changed when Trump won and liberals blamed social media for not 'protecting us' from foreign political influences.

Once again, radical liberals demanded 'DO SOMETHING!'

Social media caved to their pressure.

This is political censorship disguised as 'stopping hate'.
