Sorry, but conservatives should not deal with platforms gamed for liberals by just scuttling away. Twitter needs MORE conservatives posting, driving hashtags, and flagging obnoxious, dangerous liberal posts and trends. Surrender sucks...

I’m torn on this. I have a Twitter purely for trolling and raising liberal blood pressure but I know that it helps their stats.

I’m still trying to assess if the trolling is worth it.

what should we do to delete our Facebook?

I have a company Facebook. Of course Google (commies) rank according to FB and Twitter.

Not sure how to proceed. We deal with the public.

Wish I could dump all the accounts and not hurt my business.

The sheep join these things. Peer pressure.

Thanks anyway. I’ve managed to deactivate it, but it keeps sending me notifications.

Just post Trump wins! Covid is fake! Build the wall! and things like that over and over and Twitter will deactivate you by default. LOL

I still can’t join Parler though or even read any posts there. :(

Your account will eventually get deleted but the Tweets live on in Twitter logs forever.

I have never tweeted. I only joined so I could read President Trump, I didn’t know you could read without joining.

I post only on FreeRepublic and Parler.

“I didn’t know you could read without joining.”

Yeh I wish I could read Parler without joining. I decided not to give out my cell online ever again.

You don’t have to. Maybe it’s changed (I joined last May) I didn’t have to. When people ask for my cell number I give them my land line. I never answer my land line.

Write to support and ask. I think they may do that to make sure you are not going to post porn. When I first joined they got a lot of that and they weeded it out.

That's a fair point.

Then they just shadow ban you. You can see your post, no one else can.
