The whole situation is just fucked. Trump can't block twitter users? What a joke. The Left has been banning and silencing anybody with remotely rightwing thoughts for years. These ass holes can't even handle getting blocked, they can't handle being unable to leave their toxic leftist takes underneath trump's tweets. And somehow they win in their legal battle? I can't believe it.

Sounds like the right should start creating their own social media platforms to compete, oh yeah, lol, Apple is threatening to remove Parlor from their App Store.

Yeah pretty much, but it goes beyond that. We need our own payment processors, phone manufacturers and domain registrars. In essence we need our own ecosystem. If mastercard and visa can bring Mindgeek (The company that owns pornhub and similar websites) to its knees, then they can fuck with anyone. Without secure revenue streams any alternate platform we build just ends up collapsing.

How many times do we need to see our twitter/reddit clones fail before we realise what we really need to do?

Right now is the perfect time for that to happen, a group of businessmen and software/computer engineers should be getting together to create their own platforms and they can use freedom of speech as their hook to get people's attention to join their platform over others.

They need to be more than just a cheap clone that will never go anywhere because why will the public settle for a cheap knockoff when the real thing is free?
