as uninformed conventional FR users yawn and continue the plunge into obscurity. I don’t know where these banned guys will end up, but it’s not going to be FR.

Demo-Corporate collusion.

They get around the 1st amendment and do worse than if the state did it directly.

Did they ban Clanton, the Berkeley bike-lock-assault professor?

This sucks. Proud Boys aren't racist. I followed Gavin McInnes on Twitter.

Probably something to do with this weekend's Unite The Right rally in Charlottesville. Wouldn't be surprised if their accounts are reinstated on Monday.

I generally call them prognazis or libnazis now, because that’s what they are- book burning modern day nazis.

Far too many FReepers are perfectly content preaching the the ever-shrinking choir of old men yelling at clouds. They don't understand the power of modern social media networks.

There's a reason influential conservative voices are getting kicked off Twitter. It's because the message they are using Twitter to spread is resonating with a growing number of people.

Conservatives need to fight for our spaces on these sites, not willingly banish ourselves from them.

Twitter told Buzzfeed that it was due to their policy of banning “extremist groups” — yet dozens of Antifa accounts remain active.

So... keep on hounding Twitter.

It's going to end with government regulating these sites as public utilities and breaking them up.

Is there an unbiased, purely factual report on what these groups have said and done so we won’t have to take the word of the left about them? A good project for a conservative think tank.

Well, let’s “start” with putting Mark F*ckerberg in the slammer! Let his kid grow up without a father.

This is disappointing but sadly not surprising. Gavin McInnes was one of my top reasons for being on twitter.
Adam Baldwin, Nick Searcy and James Woods too.
Sigh.
