Why Doesn't Trump Use Gab? (vanity)
Gab ^ | 2/2/19 | Self

Posted on 02/02/2019 12:30:50 PM PST by xenias

Twitter deliberately spreads disinformation on a worldwide scale. It employs manipulative algorithms to suppress opposing views. It decides what stories are important - whether it's a child smiling at an Indian, or a baby-voiced headcase claiming she was almost raped at an imaginary party 40 years ago. It has unprecedented power over the media and which stories are covered.

Why does Trump use a service that is so destructive and so biased against the right? If he left twitter for another service, twitter would lose a lot of its power and influence.

For the party-line shills and limo lib liars who run Twitter, having President Trump use it to not only assist in gaining the nomination but win the election and then bitch slap his adversaries with tweets, is like when they try to force people to bake queer cakes and pay for abortions. Shows what **** standards they have.

Suppressing hate speech doesn’t stop hate. I’m a believer that sunlight is the best disinfectant.

Trump *is* Twitter and Eric or Don Jr could become the next tech billionaires if they launch a service. I’m not sure of the legal ramifications (the Logan act?) but I think the day will come.

Because nobody else uses Gab. He wants folks to see what he is posting.

Twitter was on its way out until the 2016 election drama. Trump made it relevant again, and it uses its relevancy to destroy the lives of innocent people. Twitter was the driving force behind the Covington Catholic hate campaign. Children were getting death threats on twitter, and they wouldn’t even remove the tweets. In fact, they were fanning the flames of hate.

They would use it if he was on it. That’s the point.

It doesn’t have to be gab, it can be any platform that’s not twitter.

Almost no prominent conservatives want to be associated with a place as innocuous as Free Republic. A site that allows overt Jew-hate is going to be even farther off-limits.

Obviously, Gab must censor some Jew-hate, as it will absolutely take over any social site that allows it. It’s not even a matter of being friendly to Jews; it’s self-preservation.

Because he's not retarded.

That's why he doesn't use 8-Chan either.

But supporting a site that actively suppresses conservative voices and allows children to be doxxed and receive death threats isn’t “r*tarded”?

They would if he did. Trump’s the reason twitter is relevant.
