Twitter Confirms Plans to Ban Trump from Platform

MeWe or Parler

I prefer MeWe.

[Peter W. Kessler]

It’s TERRIBLE.

[Maurice Tift]

I use Parler all the time now. Many conservatives on Parler not only have large followings, but they get better results because they aren’t being shadowbanned. Parler also has less of the angry socialist misfits than Twitter.

I wonder how much of their traffic Twitter will lose if they ban Trump. I hope at least as much as Fox lost.

Unfortunately, the EAS may NOT be an avenue for the President to get a message out to the people.

Most people think that, if the President needed to speak to the people, he could just pick up a phone and be on the air within a couple minutes. That isn’t how it works. (I spent 9 years in broadcasting, and I studied the EAS/EBS systems.)

The FEMA National Radio System (FNARS) “Provides Primary Entry Point service to the Emergency Alert System”, and acts as an emergency presidential link into the EAS. The FNARS net control station is located at the Mount Weather Emergency Operations Center. In order for the President to get something out, he’d have to go through the FNARS.

If there’s a message that needs to be sent (i.e; alert of inbound nukes), they can verify with the military people at Mount Weather and pass it along. But, IF the person (or persons) at the controls of the FNARS do not believe the message to be valid or necessary, they can stop it from being sent to the 77 PEP (Primary Entry Point) stations around the country, and the message wouldn’t even get out. The message may depend on if Patriots or people loyal to the chain of command were at the controls. If a Dem or Biden stooge were in the loop....

I’d like to think that the EAS was a possibility for getting a message out to Patriots, letting them know that it was time to take the country back, but given the current situation and possibility of traitors, I’m not 100% sure it’d work.

Twitter is already dead. Nearly 70% of tweets are bots screaming at other bots. Twitter is a scam to rip off businesses and create agi-prop.

Probably would have been better off in 2017.

"Who needs government censorship when private sector takes the initiative. What a country."

Why do you think the federal government loves mega corporations and mega corporations love big government?

1. It is much easier for politicians to shake down a major corporation for donations than 500 small companies.
2. Only major corporations can afford to give cushy no-show jobs like board memberships and lucrative speaking fees to politicians.
3. Big Business loves regulation because it much more expensive for small business to comply with than for large corporations and drives them out of business.
4. Only Big Government can afford to subsidize and prop up business "too big to fail."

We are in the middle of a corporate fascist/socialist takeover and these lockdowns are failed made to crush small businesses and the uppity middle class worldwide.

People have lived for millenia without Twitter. I live without Twitter, Farcebook, or any of those things. Trump should announce he wouldn’t sully his fingers on the Twitter site, it’s not good enough for him (it isn’t). I spit on Jack Dorsey and all those “oligarchs” who think they’re better than us, know more than us, and think they have the right to control our speech and thoughts.

[GOP Poet]

agree

[Antoninus]

I have no idea why Trump has continued to stay on Twitter, allowing Dorsey’s band of angry children to censor him repeatedly. Dump Twitter - it’s a toxic hell-hole of woke idiots.

Only someone clueless about marketing would make such a claim. Trump is on Twitter because it allows him access to an audience of millions of people who would never hear him otherwise. There's no point broadcasting to an echo chamber if you're hoping to change minds.

[nikos1121]

Then he needs another avenue.

What about PBS? or Cspan?

[AnotherUnixGeek]

Only someone clueless about marketing would make such a claim.

Only someone clueless about censorship would recommend staying with a platform which censors. There are alternatives to Twitter.

May Trump be wise enough to already have set up an alternate platform able to handle 100 million users...to truly discuss issues
Parler and Gab are not user friendly enough for this

___________________________________________

You state as fact that Parker and Gab are not user friendly enough for this. So are you an expert in this area?

I would think Gab or Parler would jump at the chance to have Trump onboard. I would bet pie that they have discussed this scenario and have contingency plans because technology is not static.

[silverleaf]

If I liked the formats of parler and gab ( belong to both, no patience with using them) I’d be using them instead of twitter
So I guess that makes me an “ expert”

[CodeToad]

Parler.com welcomes Trump with open arms. Trump needs to stop talking to the idiot communist on Twitter.

So you are an “expert” because you don’t like Parler and Gab as much as Twitter...Sheesh...It is not fact but merely your opinion. Wish you could just say so, but whatever.

You can use whatever platform you wish, everyone has an opinion as to which is best—i.e. what they prefer. It is just not factual to say Parler or Gab cannot accomodate Trimp with no supporting stats...

IMHO many of the “cool kids” have dual accounts at both twitter and Gab or Parler because they know what is coming.

Again, I believe Gab and Parler can handle a Trump migration—but then it is merely my opinion and stated as such...
