Read this thread of comments... interesting to note which highly-touted platforms 𝒅𝒐𝒏'𝒕 rank as 'highly' on the list. In my opinion, no one will succeed as well as 🐸without 'the man'.

You can follow me at gab.com/IAmOrange but be patient. I'm not a frequent flier.
GETTR continues to claim only 2M people. It seems opportunistic to me. If they're 'not selling your data', how do they make money? Why are they available on the 'evil' app stores?

More importantly, why 𝒂𝒓𝒆𝒏'𝒕 they endorsed by 'the man'?

'Twitter is so low on our referral source traffic list that it doesn’t even register in our top 15 sources of traffic.

95% of our traffic is direct, meaning we don’t depend on Google, Twitter, Facebook, or anyone else. People come directly to Gab.'

"Dear Tom,

I want to know something for sure. Right now I don't.

Blame it on pride. When I first entered high school I relished what I was taught: that I was the ultimate authority in my life; the final arbiter of all truth, the only decider of my values, ...
and that no prior traditions, notions about God, or value systems had any authority over my will, my spirit, my behavior. "Maximum autonomy," they called it.

Such ideas can be very inviting.
But there was a catch to all this freedom: I had to accept the idea that I was an accident, a mere product of time plus chance, and not only myself, but everything that exists.

“Covid death” counts are artificially inflated.

Countries around the globe have been defining a “Covid death” as a “death by 𝒂𝒏𝒚 cause within 28/30/60 days of a positive test”.
off-guardian.org/2021/09/22/30-…
'Almost all studies on the infection-fatality ratio (IFR) of Covid have returned results between 0.04% and 0.5%. Meaning Covid’s survival rate is at least 99.5%.'
There has been NO unusual excess mortality.
The press has called 2020 the UK’s “deadliest year since WWII”, but this is misleading... it ignores the growth in population.

A more reasonable statistical measure of mortality is Age-Standardised Mortality Rate (ASMR):

You change nothing by tweeting! We're either preaching to the choir or buried by the Jack-boots.

Get involved locally and do something of substance. Then tweet to your heart's content. I do.😘😎

"America

Two hundred and forty-four years ago, the resolve, courage, and wisdom of your Founding Fathers forever changed the course of history.
For the first time, with the ratification of your Declaration of Independence, mankind was offered an unmatched societal ideal and dignified way of life.
