    I know it sounds hard to believe, but i’m gonna lay out the case.

    Over the past 6 months twitter has only ramped up their one sided attacks on President Trump and Conservative sources. We all know this. But you might have missed significant shifts in the last week.

     

    1. Dan Bongino Former Secret Service Agent, former congressional candidate, and who has one of the hottest political podcasts on the web announced an ownership stake in a competitor to Twitter: Parler. This created a rumble in the political side of twitter that culminated in the last 48 hours.

    2. Brad Parscale, the Trump campaign Manager has activated his reserved account on Parler. This did not go unnoticed.

    3. Is a double header, Parscale then released this tweet

    He then followed it up on 6/19 morning on Fox News PROMOTING Parler on their morning show. I’m making a prediction. Trump will leave twitter for Parler before the end of the summer. If he does this. 60+ million accounts will VANISH overnight. No social media platform will survive such an exodus.

    TO Geeks and Gamer’s Staff. Please create accounts on this platform and quickly. If Jeremy wants to stay out of the game i do not blame them. But if the President leaves the migration will be unstoppable and i do not want you guys to be left behind!

      Question about Parler: Can users edit and/or delete posts? (this is why I reject BitChute)

      Jeremy won’t be “left behind”. He’s ahead of the curve. He has his own website.

        I wish, oh how much I wish Twitter would just go offline forever, and facebook too, and reddit, and Tumblr.

          The VP of Security at Twitter was a woman named Del Harvey. She may be gone now. I am not sure. I had her in my courtroom.

          Del set men up on the internet for a company called Perverted Justice. She lied. She falsified evidence.  They got a man killed.  All to make money and be on TV. That company is no longer in business.  Its founder is now a felon and wanted by the FBI on racketeering charges.  He changed his name from Phillip Eide to Xavier Von Erck. I am sure every member of Perverted Justice is being hunted to this day.

          These are the types of people who run Twitter. They are insane and mentally ill criminals. You gotta know the people behind these organizations and what they are connected to.

          Twitter has had a hand in the down fall of our culture and society

          Change my mind.

           

          Twitter is a branch of the internet that has offered very little back to the society that uses it.  The only good it has offered would be subjective to each person so I couldn’t say every last bit of it is negative.  Even IMO it is completely harmful on society and how people react with each other.

          Thankfully I have this place and I can calm down.  For a while there I was being kind of a dick and constantly on the offensive online.  Just got so use to the toxic environment that was affecting the way I was treating just normal people like you and those who are not one of those blue check marks.

           

          The way people meet and how we interact with each other has been highly disrupted by places like Twitter.  For as long as humans have been around our social construct never really changed.  Meet people out in the world and forge bonds.  Now suddenly all that is flipped on its head and how we meet people and talk to one another is being messed with.  That has had a true effect on our social, mental, and states we live in.

          When was the last time you met someone off the internet and forged a bond?  Those Check marks on Twitter, they spend all day long on the internet and it has fucked up their heads.   So glad I was banned off there.

          We are better off without.

          I love the internet.  But man, I can say some of us may not be ready for such a drastic shift in our social culture in such a short time.

          Did we even realize what we were doing?  Most of us didn’t.  And here we are.

          Edit no, Delete yes. And you have a 1k character limit.

            I opened an account on Twitter for the first time about a month ago.  It was sort of an experiment.

            At this time I can honestly say it hasn’t changed me or my life. I don’t use Twitter to aggressively preach my personal ideals. I don’t use Twitter, or any social media for that matter, as my personal street-corner soapbox.  Rather, on Twitter I read video game news from the few channels I follow, occasionally search for certain people or topics I’ve read about in news articles, and I have posted just a couple cute/funny news clips and memes myself.   I don’t pay attention to “recommended” or “trending” topics, and I rarely read comments from strangers attached to posts in the accounts I follow.

            So far, after a month, I’m fine, un-phased.

            I don’t doubt that “Twitter has had a hand in the down fall of our culture and society” — because I think a lot of people use it differently than I do…which frankly, is on them.

            I’ve heard of similar stories.

            #167307

            No changing. I agree the fall of twitter is directly linked to the situation we’re in now.

            I believe Parler is the answer most require.

                  I agree, Twitter, or modern social media as a whole, is one of the worst inventions of mankind.

                    I also signed up a few hours ago. I created a new thread titled “Parler vs. Twitter” to document my experience so far.

                    If Donald leaves Twitter everyone else will…? 🤣 He’s somewhat less omnipotent than you appear to think he is I’m afraid.
