"Free speech" doesn't mean everyone has to listen to what everyone else is saying.

Which is why you can block them.

I wish there were another social platform besides Twitter that the president could use. But Gab isn't the answer. Maybe there's another option?

I'm surprised there aren't several twitter alternatives out there. Not having competition allows twitter to be as despicable as it likes without consequence. Users can't just flee to a competitor when there aren't any viable competitors.

Yes, you can block them. Which was the Gab policy leading up to Pittsburgh. The policy saved a lot of money on moderators, but it was a disaster. It allowed the "Gas the K!kes!" Nazis to have a happy clubhouse all by themselves to share such evil garbage. I could post dozens of memes and images showing proud "heroic" SS Nazis pushing buttons to drop Zyklon-B to kill Jews, or to kill Trump. I have saved them all. Do you want to see them?

And not only did the Gab "block" function serve to hide open, overt "Gas the K!kes!" Nazis, it also allowed little clubhouses of hard-core "anime" child porn to flourish.

The FBI will arrest you if you take or share pictures of actual children in porn. BUT, what if you share very well drawn cartoons (think "Vargas girls" talent level) of prepubescent children being raped? Guess what? It's technically legal!

And it flourished on Gab's "100% Free Speech" platform. Which was actually a cost-saving dodge to avoid paying moderators to delete "Gas the K!kes!" Nazi trash or hand-drawn illustrated child porn filth.

If you are not convinced, I could post dozens and dozens of memes that were accepted and posted for a long time on Gab AFTER Pittsburgh.

And you honestly wonder why Trump will not post on Gab?? Seriously?

Freezoxee.com is like Facebook, Twitter, Gab etc, but it doesn’t allow boderline porn or “Gas the Jews!” Nazi filth.

But if you want “100% pure free speech,” Gab is for you.

And borderline child pornographers, and “Gas the K!kes” Nazis.

If the president used Gab, his staff would have to waste time filtering through and blocking all the filth there.

Also, come to think of it, if Trump stopped using Twitter and started using Gab as an alternative, Twitter users still could just copy his Gab messages to share on Twitter. With a Twitter account, at least he has control over what he himself posts there.

So, he's smart to use whatever platform is most popular because that's where whatever he says will be shared, anyway.
