The biggest threat that social media censorship poses is not you being unable to access Facebook or Twitter, its you not being able to get a mortgage or have a bank account.
The end result of Big Tech silencing conservative voices is banks and corporations removing your access to the marketplace and severely restricting your basic right to buy and sell.
We have already seen numerous instances of people being deplatformed by BANKS for the political opinions, from Mastercard telling Patreon to remove Robert Spencers account, to Martina Markota and Enrique Tarrio having services terminated by Chase Bank over their support for Trump.
Mastercard also recently indicated that it would hold a vote on whether to cut off payments to global far-right political leaders. But this will extend to everyone. Mastercard will monitor your financial activity for indications of dissident behavior. Thats chilling.

Time to launch a MAGA-Bank for conservatives.
Christians...Jews and their politics are satan’s problem, he will be allowed to hit us hard in end.
Terrifying.
If you weren't a member of the church, which was also the government, you were financially ruined.
Happened to a bunch of my ancestors who fled to Vermont and northeastern PA
However, this looks like a great opportunity for an existing bank or a new bank.
A new card, the "Smart Card" or something like it.
Doing business with conservative outcasts, gun shops, shooting ranges, ammo manufacturers and dealers, etc.
“Time to launch a MAGA-Bank for conservatives.”
You just defeated the mark of the beast.
I wish it were so easy.
Just a stalling tactic, I'm afraid.
I was kidding. What you said is true, but the mark of the beast was enforced by the Roman government of that day. You had to go to their “courthouse” and swear fealty to the Emperor, who claimed to be a god, or you could not work.
Certainly, some tyrannical government would redo it if it could, as in Chine, but it is not a divine imperative for future history.
Fixed.
bttt
I bet free republic population would be rejected. In fact, I have no doubt if they seriously ever go this route. Heck some already think MEGA is unacceptable. Weird world.
On top of that some HR departments will not hire people who are not on Facebook.
This is the Facebook Is Evil ping list.

lifelog IS evil.
deleted my account many moons ago. rather like surgically removing a cancer from my life.
everyone should try it, if they have not done so, already
You couldn't possibly be more wrong. There are already social media monitoring and reporting options that can run reports on you and I and assess our activity using AI.
It won't be long before it's done here, China's doing it today.
> There has to be a massive federal lawsuit in there somewhere.
This action should initiate from the govt on its own.
Of all institutions, banks are some of the most highly regulated. It’s about 50% a bullshit system, but it’s the system we use.
Fed gov has a massive interest in discriminatory practices of banks.
Keep looking for non-banking alternatives. Who knows what they will get away with.
Fed gov must get busy on this.
I uploaded a Paul Watson and Laura Loomer video on that wretched site. Maybe they’ll ban me,
Everybody needs a vanilla Facebook account where they post a few cat pictures and unoffensive memes, maybe some pics of sunsets. And nothing else.
People used to say that there is no way that they will ever let gays get married. You cannot rule out anything anymore. Just google Operation Chokepoint. But, FWIW, the FB part of this does not bother me. They are not needed weaponize the financial system.
