Addressing Texas Gov. Greg Abbott’s Statement About Gab
Gab News ^ | March 10, 2021 | Andrew Torba

Every month 30 million people use Gab’s services to get access to the free flow of information online. Gab is the home of free speech in a world where Big Tech oligarchs have censored, deplatformed, and demonized tens of millions of good, honest, and decent people with whom they disagree politically.

Tonight Texas Governor Greg Abbott, a “Republican,” issued a despicable and false statement smearing Gab as an “anti-semitic platform that quote “has no place in Texas.” This is the same Gov. Abbott who just five days ago said he was “taking a stand against Big Tech censorship.”

Gov. Abbott’s statement will likely not sit well with the nearly 800,000 Texans who have visited Gab.com in the past 24 hours alone. What is even more strange is that the Texas GOP itself is on Gab with a verified account.

Gab is not an “anti-semitic” platform. We protect the political speech of all Americans, regardless of viewpoint, because in this age of cancel culture nobody else will. That means unpopular viewpoints may be found on the site.

The enemies of freedom smear us with every name in the book because they hate America and they hate free speech. It’s a shame to see a GOP politician fall for this trap when conservative values are under sustained attack all over the country.

f you search for Gab, the main heading comes up and underneath a link is listed for “WhiteHorde@Gab”. It appears to be a White supremacist page. It doesn’t show up on the main feed.

Gab is a free speech site. read up on search engines.

I too have seen a lot of anti-semitisim on both Gab and bitchute and figure a bunch is false flag trolling by the left. The rest is the price you pay for a free speech site and you ignore it as best you can.

The US Constitution is a free speech document. Does that mean it’s anti-Semitic?
