Basically conservatives are locking themselves in a room while proclaiming Free Speech.

[Alberta's Child]

Basically, conservatives just want to be left alone.

Almost every conservative principle I hold actually stands on its own in the real world. When it comes to politically contentious issues, I've reached the point where I'm more interested in letting people fail than in showing them how to succeed.

I hope Twitter and Facebook are filled with losers like this before long:

Good points. Im ready to sign up but there are no viable alternatives.

A platform is either commercial advertising based or it is subscription based. We cannot compete in the open with subscription based platforms. Major companies won’t advertise on conservative platforms until they are big and they won’t be big until they get advertising because corporate America fears the Left and panders to the Left for good reason and would lose liberal customers wholesale if it advertised on conservative platforms. Conservatives buy what they want regardless of the politics of the seller. Liberals make a “statement” every time they buy socks or a car. That shoves sellers into making mucho leftist propaganda and shunning of conservative web activity.

But Twitter and Facebook are also closed systems.

You can’t see anything on twitter unless you login can you?

You make an excellent point about closed systems, Pollard. Why in the world are gab.ai, mewe.com, parler.com, and others erecting forbidding walls against "outsiders"? What can this siege mentality hope to accomplish? At a minimum, the walls should be made of transparent glass, allowing any passersby to gawk at what's on offer. It's not a whole lot different from how retail stores build security doors against crooks but also huge glass windows that display goods and services for all to see and desire. o_o
