Yes, but I do not think JR shadowbans posters...
“We must, indeed, all hang together or, most assuredly, we shall all hang separately.” - Benjamin Franklin
No I didn’t mean to imply he did! Thanks for catching that.
That’s why I said IF twitter was ethical, they’d let everyone know the rules upfront.
But liberals never are ethical, are they? But conservatives usually are, since principles guide our thinking and actions.
Thanks!
gab.ai
There is a very small number of Freepers that we’d be better off shadow banning here.
“To them, 1984 was an instruction manual................”
Sad and true.
My ‘smartTV’ sees what I watch and sends the info back. If that’s not 1984, I don’t know what is.
That will work........................
Any time I try to post anything even remotely conservative the Post button stays greyed out, and you have to try multiple times before it will finally turn blue and post.
They obviously figure that many people will just say the hell with it and not post. That way they can deny censoring stuff.
But, I have never had the grey out happen on any other post.
That’s why I don’t have FaceButt anymore................

It is a business, actually, not a non profit org. One of the keywords they discriminate against, as sited by one of the interviewees, is “cross” (as in Christian faith. I suspect they could be treading on some thin ice legally with that.
They are creating a market for a 3rd party twitter search engine that would repair externally the things they are screwing up.
It would not be hard to use an external system to allow one to migrate to gab.ai and yet retain full access to twitter through a common interface.
No way to hide tweets, no way to front-load anti-conservative comments to a tweet,etc ,etc...
Just go to a single site and you would see the corrected, merged gab/twitter interface.
It would need to be a widely distributed system to forestall twitter from banning select ip addresses.
In effect, millions of web-spiders at work maintaining the system.
I suspect the real problem is the user that posts something will always see it on their screen and yet the others linked to that thread will not see it.
That user posting it is left believing that they are alone in their thoughts when nobody else is even seeing it on their screens.
Worst methodology out there. Like being invisible in a room and not knowing it.

Not reading what I don’t want to works good enough for me.
Yeah, private corporations are never sued for fraud...
It can’t be fraud if you have to agree to their terms and conditions in order to sign up to use their site....................
It’s fraud if you deceive the consumer, or use deceptive practices...
I would bet that they have some disclaimer in their sign up agreement that it’s their prerogative to ban you whenever and however they deem necessary..................
