I can’t access Parler or GAB!!!
Using browsers like the Gab Dissenter browser helps to prevent you being the product on the Internet. It protects you from tracking cookies advertisers use to track you going from one web site to another. This prevents them from being able to target you with targeted advertising, which is where the real money is on the Internet.
Are you going to post that on every thread?
Gab’s donation page options are: checks & Bitcoin.
They have been cut off from every other financial transaction method.
No credit cards.
No PayPal.
No funding services like GoFundMe.
My guess even the check option won’t last forever, as pressure will be applied to banks to stop working with conservative sites (under the guise of not supporting “domestic terrorism”).
How long can an enterprise last when its only financial outlet is Bitcoin? It is going to pay its employees or vendors in Bitcoin? Is it going to take out a loan in Bitcoin?
Statement From Second City Cop
Well, this was certainly a long time coming. Fifteen years, over 22,000 posts, almost two million comments and God knows how many attempts to silence us. But it might finally be over…at least this version of it.
Over the weekend, we received information from a contact at Google that internal chat/e-mails led them to believe that certain precautions we had taken over the years had been breached by Google. We had gotten similar warnings from others in the past, and we dealt with or ignored them as the situation warranted. But this one was different.
And this one – on the heels of Big Tech’s wholesale attack on the President, Parler and center-right to right-leaning authors, politicians and voices – pointed to a countdown that had far less time than we had thought. Most likely, far less time than you think, too. The blacklisting has begun, even if you won’t see it. You should – the wholesale abandonment of the President, the denunciations, the, “I wasn’t really with him” self-serving statements. Sound familiar? It should…if you have any recollections of the show trials behind the Iron Curtain, in Southeast Asia, in assorted Middle East kleptocracies.
Disavowal and re-education is on tap. What Senator McCarthy is remembered for – “Are you now or have you ever been…” has been twisted, refined (Bake that cake!), and exacerbated (Parler is only the first of many). They don’t want “unity.” They want Compliance and as the last fifteen years have shown, we aren’t really good at compliance. The amount of personal data available to “woke companies” who would deny commerce or service based on beliefs, contributions, investments (not Green enough!), social media posting, employment (cops not welcome here), bumper stickers – Have you heard of Operation Choke Point? Look it up and imagine it drilled down to individual citizens. Orwell’s 1984? It’s here.

Access to long-running Chicago police blog is suddenly restricted and a lot of people are asking “why?”

“Gentlemen may cry, Peace, Peace—but there is no peace.
The war is actually begun! The next gale that sweeps from
the north will bring to our ears the clash of resounding arms!
Our brethren are already in the field! Why stand we here
idle? What is it that gentlemen wish? What would they
have? Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at
the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God!
I know not what course others may take; but as for me,
give me liberty or give me death!”

Even if the GOP took control of the House in 2022, they would not enact the conservative agenda.
They promised to repeal and replace Obamacare and when they had the majority, they made every excuse.
The GOP could have reigned in big tech prior to 2018, but did not.
The GOP could have done many things when they had the majority from 2017-2019.
But they just told us what we wanted to hear in order to get our votes and then they did nothing that they said.
We're getting played.
Summary?

My takeaways - yours may differ:
“The endgame here is eliminating conservatives as a meaningful political force in America. That’s the scale of the threat. Conservatives have spent too long ignoring it. And even now they underestimate the sheer scale of the strategy to erase them from the marketplace of ideas.
“Sites can also be crushed at the domain level, banishing them to the dark web.
“Cancel culture isn’t a new phenomenon, but this is the industrialization of cancel culture which takes it from an isolated phenomenon to a collective system of enforcement like China’s social credit score.
“when corporations hire Republicans, all they get is lobbyists who ignore the fact that the interests they represent are bad for conservatives. Republicans help companies who give them money even while they’re crushing conservatives.
“Conservatives never asked companies to adopt their political views. Leftists made it mandatory and organized pressure campaigns from the outside and the inside to make it happen. That’s why they won. It’s why conservatives are losing.
“Conservatives have lost their grip on many key institution
“DuckDuckGo serves up searches from Microsoft’s Bing.”
We are being more than played.
Throughout Trump’s term, we were fed disinformation that it was all coming together....and the deep state was going to pay.
Those that believed Q, Sessions and the tens of thousands of indictments....the release of classified information to sink the left....the voting machine fraud....the marked ballots...the military siezing servers.....
All disinformation to keep us agitated and clueless about what was really happening behind the scenes....the stage was set and coup is complete.
Speak out against this and you are branded a domestic terrorist.
Speak out about conservative values and you need to be cancelled.
Submission by the masses has always been their goal....and they basically have it.
The GOP is part of the deep state. Less than half deserve our votes. We need to allow the RINO purge to happen. They told us we needed Loeffler to save us from the Democrats, then she joins them. Yep, talk me out of wanting a third party.
That's funny. What RINO purge was stopped?
The FACT is we are shackled in throwing out incumbents during a primary.
Oh, if you think the people you will get for your third party will be any better, let me sell you bridge.
The Tea Party recruited good people and most became part of the swamp.
Your pitiful third party will be the same.
I’ll take the tea party caucus anytime, better than the RINO’s you support. How’s Mitt Romney working out for you?

Thanks, I needed that

You still have to buy stamps. Can’t do that with Bitcoin.
Erasure from the internet? Erasure from life more like the goal. If you haven’t had it cross your mind, you are kidding yourself.
