The Deplatforming of A Nation State
Gab.com ^ | March 4, 2022 | Gab News

Posted on 03/05/2022 7:57:24 PM PST by E. Pluribus Unum

The entire nation state of Russia is getting the “Gab treatment” by Big Tech and the globalist regime.

By that I mean they are being systematically purged from the internet all within the span of about a week. 

Google is blocking their apps

Apple is blocking their apps. 

YouTube, Facebook, Twitter, and Telegram have banned or limited access to their accounts. 

Twitter has started “fact-checking” and reducing the reach of their links. 

YouTube has demonetized their videos

Reddit has “quarantined” the /r/russia community

Namecheap, a domain registrar, has cut off ALL Russian customers

American right wing dissidents are no strangers to any of these things. All of these tools of war have been used against us as American citizens for six years now. In Gab’s case we have been banned from both app stores, domain registrars, and big tech platforms for years. Now these same tools and tactics of war that have been developed and used against us as dissidents are being used against all of Russia. Other nation states should be paying attention to this. Are you going to continue to allow your citizens to be controlled entirely by a handful of companies in Silicon Valley, or is now perhaps the time to start building your own sovereign technology and infrastructure?

Except Russia has a way of getting even in the non virtual world.

Yep. Zuckerberg needs to hire a good food taster. Polonium-210 poisoning is horrendous. No joke!

There are millions of Woke turds who labor tirelessly for a future where one of them is screeching incoherently in the face of Mankind, forever.

I know “Russia Times” has been disappeared. Sad, because it was usually pretty good on just presenting news and other things of interest.
Spotting something at RT that was pro the Russ govt was usually easy. And I don’t expect newspapers to be attacking their countries, anyway.

That’s too bad because I think my grandson got better news from RT than the usual CNN, ABC, NBC, et al...but, he’s getting a real education about “free speech” now.

1. Ukraine as a neutral country as stipulated by its 1991 declaration of independence.
2. The removal of the weapons pumped by the West over last months.
3. De-nazification, or the ban on Nazi parties and related militias (recognized as terrorist organizations by the US Congress BTW).
4 The recognition of independence of breakaway parts.

You don’t hear about it in the media though. They say Putin wants to rebuild USSR.

It seems as though those in charge of this global gaslighting are the same ones who laid the foundation for the gaslighting of the world regarding the Covid societal reset. I don’t believe these agents actually care if war between NATO and Russia breaks out. If you dig deep enough you’ll find Chinese influences embedded in the Western over the top, jingoistic disinformation that is destabilizing the situation. Regardless of what happens to Russia, NATO or the USA, China, our only existential threat, will be there to pick up the pieces.

Still works here and it’s funny how the reporting is just news and no opinion.

The globalists will eventually have to wage war on Russia to take her resources.

The Globalists are laying the groundwork for that with their useful fools in the U.S. leading the charge. Once their usefulness to the Globalists is through, they will be disposed of. But they are too stupid to realize that they are being used.

Damn the intelligence agencies that monitized Facebook, Twitter, Microsoft with stocks and financing; the DNC, the GOPe, etc.

Deplatforming Russia via the tech giants is going great. I am all for it. Let’s see if Pooty’s cyber hackers can earn their keep, close down some of our most important systems.

I am all for Russkies knocking out the EBT payments in a few states. I was in Walmart on Feb 28th evening and the EBT crowd had full grocery carts for themselves and their keeeds. Image these clowns coming to check out and their EBT comes up all zeros.

Senile, dumbass, diseased Putin thwarted and denied Ukraine? Denied his Czarist ambitions? That’s his tough luck. If our tech firms help this happen, then great.

Yes, if I were a guy like Putin, if I saw a private company joining the fray, I would consider them targets.
