Trump Launches Social Media Platform

[Steve]

Former US President Donald Trump has announced plans to launch a new social media network, called TRUTH Social.

He said the platform would "stand up to the tyranny of big tech", accusing them of silencing opposing voices in the US.

Social media played a pivotal role in Mr Trump's bid for the White House and was his favourite means of communication as president.

But Mr Trump was banned from Twitter and suspended from Facebook after his supporters stormed the US Capitol.

Social media firms were under pressure throughout Mr Trump's presidency to ban him, with his posts criticised as insulting, inflammatory or peddling outright falsehoods.

Last year Twitter and Facebook began deleting some of his posts or labelling them as misleading, such as one in which he said Covid was "less lethal" than the flu.

They took the decision to ban or suspend Mr Trump after the January riots, which followed a speech in which he made baseless claims of electoral fraud.

Responding to the riots, Mr Trump called those at the Capitol "patriots" and showed no sign of accepting the result of the election, prompting Twitter and Facebook to rule that it was too risky to allow him to continue to use their sites.

Here's one of the terms/rules/ on Trump's platform that claims to be all about FREE SPEECH. What those terms say is people are not allowed to criticise Trump, his platform or his business in general. If they do they will be removed...YAY FOR FREE SPEECH, just as long as it's pro-Trump.

He just patterned it after Putin and the Russian press. If you silence all criticism, you are good to go!

He's slowly laying the building block for a dictatorship. First get a mass of idiot manipulated trough emotion to believe in a idea, slowly erode trust in institution and objective truth, start propaganda arm that label itself as the truth.

I don't know if it's illegal in the U.S to be the boss of a media company while being president, i just hope he never get back on the seat.

For the retards who think i like Joe Bidet because i hate Trump, you're wrong, Brandon is clearly senile and too old to govern, the deep state is behind the current administration and the American people should do something about that instead of infighting. Or destroy the 2 party system that is clearly undemocratic and prevent better option to emerge. Maybe Andrew Yang can do it but who knows?!?

It has already been hacked to fuck...

On an unrelated side note:

About 3,000 Republican anti-vaxer's are dying each day.
And a bad career move for any politicians that are hoping for a Republican vote in 2022 or 2024.
They need to keep in mind that, contrary to the Republican claims that dead people voted in 2020, actually, dead people can't vote, which means the Trumpies are losing supporters at a rate of several churches-full each day.

Yup. Nothing but truth gonna come out of that propaganda machine. Me no like Biden, but sure as shit not wasting a vote for that comb-over Cheeto.

[Steve]

Once the platform is rolled out proper I'm going to set a world record of how quick I can get banned.

I'll always keep my political views to myself (everyone should honestly) but this is equivalent to a child throwing a fit about being deplatformed.

Like or hate Trump, I think most can agree his Tweets were definitely not appropriate for the President of any country.

It's fucking beautiful. The only good conservative is a dead conservative, and right now...

Well, us leftists are having the time of our fucking lives right now.
