"On Thursday, Parler was the most popular app in the United States. By Monday, three of the four Silicon Valley monopolies united to destroy it."

"[T]he dominant strain of American liberalism is not economic socialism but political authoritarianism. Liberals now want to use the force of corporate power to silence those with different ideologies." - @ggreenwald

"Of course large numbers of Trump supporters ended up on Parler. That’s not because Parler is a pro-Trump outlet, but because those are among the people who were censored by the tech monopolies or who were angered enough by that censorship to seek refuge elsewhere." -@ggreenwald
"[Parler's] destruction preserves the unchallengeable power of a tiny handful of tech oligarchs over the political discourse not just of the United States but democracies worldwide (which is why Germany, France and Mexico are raising their voices in protest)." -@ggreenwald

Must Read Piece In Revolver News

Republicans Must Stop the Big Banks From Destroying the First Amendment With “Financial Deplatforming”

"Right now, the single most existential threat to free speech in America is the rise of financial deplatforming."

"Lenin never actually said 'the capitalists will sell us the rope with which to hang them,' but that apocryphal quote exactly describes the present-day hapless Republican party’s relationship to Big Tech and the left."

"The OCC recently drafted a rule that would bar major banks from denying services to customers for any reason other than a 'documented failure to meet quantitative, impartial risk-based standards established in advance.'"revolver.news/2020/12/financ…

Republicans in red states would be mistaken to celebrate rich liberals or “centrists” fleeing blue states to join their red state.

These people flee due to the economic policies of the Left, but bring w/ them the other Left-Wing views that made their previous state a sh*thole.
There are many reasons why California is a Left-Wing Nightmare.

Blaming it all on “big government” is just an attempt to avoid the more unpleasant & controversial conversations.
Guard your city, your state & your country like you would guard your home & your family.

Values, history & tranquility > money.
