The Fascist really are not even pretending any more.
We need to be honest - the issue isn’t “alternatives”. It is Big Tech colluding to KILL the alternatives.
Gab.ai was an alternative to Twitter. Liberal companies cited racist speech as the reason they removed it from the Google and Apple app stores, while Big Tech buried the site in search results, refused their adds and nearly purged them from social media.
Patreon funded content creators. It joined the conservative purge. Freestartr and Subscribestar initially continued to fund these creators. Then Chase, Paypal, Stripe and another payment processor COLLUDED to shut off the money. One site closed, the other caved.
This is big business colluding to kill the alternatives. Note that these same companies collude to shut down payment processing on individuals’ websites, too. This is why Pamela Gellar asks for checks - she can’t process donations any other way. And the Proud Boys. And Alex Jones.
Google kicked gun channels off Youtube. They moved to Pornhub. A year later, payment processors start choking off money to a porn site they had no issues with 24 months ago. The issue is the guns, not the porn.
