LOL...what kind of revenue were you generating from Twitter?
Dude, if you got banned, go get a new email address and sign up under another name. Download a Tor browser if needed. You’re back in business!
> I personally believe the Congress needs to pass laws banning anyone from censoring a public forum larger than 1 million users. <
You might be on to something there. At some point these huge companies become something like a public utility.
The doctor gave me B/P meds that made me quit booze, obviously cigs are a ‘no go’. tormenting politicians is not a good replacement but will do......
I just joined Dissenter. Yesterday I discovered it can be opened as a tab in my brouser.
After messing around in it, it suddenly hit me that it reminds me of another site I’ve used a LONG time, except it is much slicker and, apparently, you can’t get banned. You can simply ignore posts from rude posters.
The problem is this: The other site I’ve been a member of for so long is Freerepublic.
Believe me, dennis Prager has both expensive and personally dedicated conservative lawyers and if he gets banned on social media, no one is safe.
Like in all totalitarian regimes, we peons keep our head down... Though we need to keep our eyes open for ways to fight our slaveowners when we can.
If you can actually prove million dollar damages to you, and you never said anything on there that by their guidelines can be construed as racist or homophobic etc, you have more of a chance, but Prager has that too and he lost his case against YouTube.
Seems to me like you should have been whipped more by your mama growing up. Get out of your parents basement for Pete's sake. Stop being a thin skinned wimp.
I am obviously not a lawyer but someone with deep pockets might get a sympathetic jury to consider harm to the public at large in that they are in violation of their license.
I already have three and actually a couple I cannot remember the passwords to. In all seriousness I am a little pissed because I had developed some good associations on that account.
When I play on the net, I am one that plays in very few sandboxes. Years ago I left Facebook I have never been back for any reason.
I like twitter for the character limit, it made for a great excuse to slaughter the English language.....
Still ‘Grammar Police Officer Lives Matter’ I hear you dudes, I really do.
I will tell this story...not really intending it to be a slam or negative, but just how things in life work out.
I worked with a gal who monthly went through the credit card bill (between her and the husband). The two made a fair amount of money but spent a ton of money every month.
One day, she comes back from the post office on base, and here’s the bill for the month. She goes item by item. Then she take this yellow marker (I sit direct across from her and can observe this). She reflects upon this for a minute, and then picks up the phone. She calls the husband at work.
Her husband is a fire department shift leader. Respected guy....mid-30s...clever and professional.
So she mentions this one item. The description is ‘Sword’, for $25. There’s a bunch of ‘yeps’, and such. Very clam on her part. Then she says ‘fine’...ending the call.
She looks over at me and says ‘you know what he bought? A digital sword for some stupid computer game’. This brought out 20 minutes of harsh words which she needed to unload because she didn’t want to blast her husband. My response was ‘you need to find a cheaper sword sales guy’.
A year passed, and the two rotated back to the US. She calls me one day at work. The night before, the husband had a big mess and came to the patio weeping away and highly emotional. He’d just been kicked out of the ‘war-club’. He was allowed to take his sword, shield and unicorn pony with him but he was finished in their private group.
I asked her if she had patience to handle that emotional moment, and she responded that it took a lot but she realized that people needed to feel as though they are part of some group, and on a big crusade in life (even if it was a fantasy).
In your case, take a deep breathe, and count this as simple lessons learned in life.
Parody?
If you think you need a lawyer, you probably do (but not in all cases).
Have you spilled hot McDonalds coffee on your lap lately?
What did you say that got you banned? Asking for a friend.
> Stop being a thin skinned wimp. <
honurider’s problem is not that he’s a wimp. His problem is that he did not put the word “satire” or “humor” in the title of his post. Because of that, some folks get mislead, and have their time wasted.
I would and should if town weren’t 25 miles away one way.
And, alas I believe they have burned the FremenOfDune@kaikona1 in the strongest ‘Bleach Bit’ they could find. I think that avatar has pissed off its last snow flake particularly A***hat Cortez, she is the reason I was ejected from the game....
My addiction to FR is plenty.
Who has time for more?
Great cover story! Given our current culture, however, I would suggest adding the term, "asexual" just to cover all the bases. {;^]
So you have to be sitting at a desk with a computer to use it? What a shame. I never do; I’m on talent and phone. Bummer. It’s a good idea, that little extension. Even if it were an app it would be good. Free Republic just doesn’t ever meld well with mobile use; I wish there were an app but clearly no one will make one.
