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?

These tech companies are going to have a hard time selling services in free countries who are now aware of just how easy a "partner" can drop them.

Expect to see VPN services really take off.

It’s an amazing thing we are witnessing!

All made possible by our media organizations controlled by our “elected” officials.

“Russia today, all Trumpsters tomorrow”

Agreed.

This could be called dress rehearsal for the coming reset.

Blocking their cancerous garbage from Russia? I thought they hated Russia?

I’ve been trying to find the Russian cease fire/ peace talks negotiating position. This information is being totally squelched. The fear must be that any legitimate Russian position might compromise the ever changing Western disinformation gaslighting of the world.

Well, I don’t see a problem with it, since the media, Soros, WEF, and the DNC now say Putin is our enemy (even though he hasn’t gotten around to attacking us?).

It’s the “Hitler Effect”, the assumption that Putin is exactly like Hitler and therefore he cannot be believed nor trusted, regardless of whatever legitimacy his case for invasion may have.

The globalists are giddy with the ability to exert this kind of control...
Ideal follow-up to the phony manufactured pandemic we are at the ass end of right now...

It is a preview of the future...
Get used to it...
Ronald Reagan postulated that we will be enduring 1000 years of this growing tyranny...

No one listened...

Everyone said: “It cannot happen here!”

But remember: Russia is the dictatorship that stifles any deviation from the government line.

If the balloon goes up, expect some of the first Russian warheads to fly toward Menlo Park, Mountain View and Santa Clara.
