How to Help 1) Tuesday come back to Parler . Com OR use the side loaded version of android OR use your already installed versions of Parler. (or maybe we will be back on the stores đ) 2) Check your email and spam for messages from Parler 3) Call, write and email your congressman and senators and expose this anti-competitive behavior. On both sides of the isle. 4) Cancel your Amazon subscriptions and dump Apple. Google/android is not much better, but it will have to do until the Linux phones are finally ready.

Class action lawsuit in the making
Every minute I spend on social media is one minute too many. I don’t like computers altogether.
“My amazon prime subscription is being renewed in February. I will cancel it.”
Excellent!
FIGHT ON PATRIOTS!
They accuse us of beng ‘fascists” when it is they who conduct themselves in a totalitarian fashion.
As Patrick Henry said:
“Give Me Liberty, or Give Me Death!”
Soon Amazon will not be able to trust a single package they receive.Their drones will become skeet targets? They have not really thought this out very well.
Exactly. The rule of law has been dying for a while now. It ends completely on 1/20/21.
I’m definitely considering a new phone soon and it will NOT be an Apple. Anyone have recommendations on a GOOD phone that
a. works great
b. is not part of the Orange Man Bad, censoring cabal
Amazon is listed as a vendor for her book. That reminded me of something I thought of a while ago. We no longer rely on physical books but purchase digital material. Most of my new books are on Kindle. Amazon is able to cut off access to them at any time, and when I die, they don’t belong to my heir. What’s stopping them from censoring any digital materials I’ve purchased to read on my Kindle?
Buy real paper books from someone other than Amazon.
Sibling and I were talking about this last night.
I’m ready to DUMP Amazon anyway! We have Prime and I don’t see any benefit since Covid hit.
I don’t live in an urban area (but I’m not in the sticks either). We have Prime but it usually takes 5 days to receive our order.
A HUGE percentage of what they sell is now cheap knockoffs made in China.
They are dominating e-commerce and crushing the little guys, just like WM did to all the mom and pop businesses before internet.
Bezos is a globalist. And now the censorship.
I WISH this would drive people back to the small businesses. I would LOVE to see Amazon taken down a notch or ten.
Wake up, keep up...this had 400,000 views last night, YouTube removed it. This is a repost. Overcharge for you ostriches waving white flags...it is not over.

Linux phones? For real?
see Pinephone, they work today on most carriers, probably buying one this week myself.

I personally like the Samsung Galaxy series of phones much better than the iPhones Iâve had. Your mileage may very but look at the S20 and the Note 20
They are all (at least most) part of it! They'll be of no help! Time has come, I'm afraid.
Good to see Sharyl is in the fight. See tagline.
This one’s furthest along, meaning you can actually buy one now but they manufacture them here in the US and since it’s not a huge company, there may be a wait. https://shop.puri.sm/
There are others but I think they’re all still at the pre-order one stage.
The Librem 5 at the above link has two models. $799 and $1999. Same phone but the $1999 is made in the USA of USA components. The $799 has foreign components and most likely some parts/chips made in China.
Here’s another; https://pine64.com/product/pinephone-community-edition-kde-plasma-mobile-limited-edition-linux-smartphone/?v=0446c16e2e66
Community edition, meaning they need the community to test it and give feedback so they can perfect things. It runs Plasma/KDE which is what my laptop runs but the phone runs a Plasma mobile. Here’s the OS website; https://www.plasma-mobile.org/
Hopefully they’ll move things along because I think it would be cool to have basically the same OS on a phone as on my laptop.
General Linux phone news/info website; https://linuxsmartphones.com/
If you’re not afraid of installing an OS on a phone, here’s a database where you type in your model and it will tell you if Linux can be installed and if so, which OS. It covers over 200 models. Techie people have been putting Linux on cell phones for years. https://many.tuxphones.com/
As far as apps, I don’t think there are any 3rd party for things like social networking sites, fb, twitter, parler, instagram etc yet. The phones come with the ability to make calls and text and a few other basic things, camera etc but that’s it.
The Librem 5 runs Pure OS which is custom written from the ground up.
Here’s a list of apps for the Purism Librem, https://tracker.pureos.net/w/pureos/mobile_optimized_apps/
FAQ’s for Librem including “Will my SIM card work?” https://puri.sm/faq/
Answer, maybe/probably but there are two possible modem choices. Looks like AT&T will work which is what I have. I should try to get away from them. Only reason we chose them is because they own all the towers around here and we live in hill country so I was thinking/hoping an AT&T phone might be apt to get the best reception but that’s not so. People with iPhones get a signal where I can’t. Of course we also have a cheapo China ZTE phone which probably has more to do with it than anything. If we’d have spent several hundred dollars, we’d probably get a better signal.
My wife usually has our phone and she uses fb messenger and plays fb games so she’d hate a Linux phone. I have no interest in overpriced Apple products so that leaves Android or possibly an open source Android compatible OS. https://itsfoss.com/open-source-alternatives-android/ It’s not a super simple thing but I’ve installed OSs on computers for a couple of decades and all my machines are dual boot where I can choose whether to boot up to Linux or Windows.
Just getting rid of all the bundled google crap, including their ability to track you is all that’s needed. Android actually has Linux at it’s root. I think for me, the best bet is going to be grapheneOS. Very limited on devices, pretty much various models of google’s Pixel line with Pixel 4 being the newest. I’m sure it would be every bit as good as our China ZTE phone. Graphene OS is basically Android degoogled. https://grapheneos.org/
Not a super easy install process; https://grapheneos.org/install
But, when Anglin asked everyone to get in front of this because they'd all be next no one could be bothered because they were too busy virtue signalling that Anglin was a evil white supremacist who deserved being de-personed.
TBH, Tucker was the only guy who spoke up and understood what was happening.
https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=p2047675.m570.l1313&_nkw=+GrapheneOS&_sacat=0
Ebay search for grapheneOS leads to several Pixel 3, 3a phones with graphene preinstalled for $3-400. One Pixel 4 w/graphene but the seller has no feedback so they could be iffy. There are new, unblocked Pixel 3/4 phones on amazon with straight Android, no service provider bloatware and they might be a good candidate for installing graphene. I think I’ll probably get one from ebay.
Parler app pak file on apkpure. You install/update it via a process called sideloading. Alternatively,you can install apkPure's own installer which makes things a lot easier. <.p>

The next step is Visa and Mastercard will freeze their accounts, making them unable to process payments. This is what they rolled out 3 years ago and strangled Gab.
Wall Street is the ultimate censor as far as things go.
Lots of interesting things being predicted for the upcoming Tuesday/Wednesday timeframe. Hmmm
“Remember, Amazon includes Whole Foods and Kohlâs. Donât shop at either.”
believe it or not, I dont shop at ANY of those and I’m in L.A.
