It’s no secret. Facebook and Twitter have been relentlessly attacking conservative media outlets, Republicans, and Trump supporters for quite some time, but this week, they took their actions to a whole new level.

Good to know.

I’ll still try as I want to see what it’s like.

If it’s purely a twitter-type replacement I don’t want it. That garbage gives me a headache. I’d rather have the less-real-time Facebook style.

The cancel culture only stays in environments they can control. If they can’t get people canceled they don’t stay.

Look at their TOS. If they get sued, they can hit you for their attorney’s fees and court costs.
