“Threads” is already censoring the Hunter story. Good luck with that app.

Every user of this app loves the chains of servitude and licks the hand of zuckerberg. No thanks.

Downloading it is one thing, sticking to it is a whole another... of course people are all downloading it just to see what its about. Time will tell if it will go the way of all the other leftist apps that hopped to replace Twitter.

The three-letter agencies rejoice! “Threads” doubles the amount of spying on its users above what Facebook, Instagram, Twitter etc. do.

.... We need activists to sign up and monitor "Threads" and test the Envelope then take forceful actions when "Freedom of Speech" is infringed .....

Please download our app, so we can censor you, track you, and sell your personal data.

FakeWorldMSM has given Zuck at least a billion or two in promotion since he first announced it was coming.

no problem that Zuck totally monopolises social media and is known to follow FBI orders to censor, etc. that’s just fine.

If people on the Left want to use Threads, that's fine. But I think they'll get bored after a while because the party is over at Twitter. Not sure how Zuck is going to appeal to the Right now because we're just going to boycott his product.
