I wish him success and luck. This needs to be a thing considering Facebook, Twitter, Instagram are clearly left of center and restrict right of center voices. They love and embrace diversity, except when it comes to diversity of thought.

Individuals and organizations such as churches and schools need to drop Facebook. Cancel membership and tell people why.

What on earth are you talking about? Jordan Peterson is one of the few sane people in the world today. Tell me how he’s a leech.

You’re kinda off-base on this one...

There is also Dissenter. I have to say, though, that I get called all sorts of “leftist” type names by the FAR right loons there.

Turns out they really do exist.

Any attempt at replacing Twitter, Facebook, etc, is going to be deliberately swamped with pornographic and racist posts, with the goal of driving away normal people, so that the new venues fail.

The deep state doesn’t want to see competition.

He may as well. DC will not.

Only private sector persons and groups, such as JW, care about justice.

There just needs to be a robust “ignore” feature. Most sites these days have that feature. You simply don’t see the responses of the other person. What would be fun to add is the ability to “hide” your posts from those posters as well.
