A guide for Boomers and Gen Xers
For those older people who are still getting their heads around the interwebs or live under a rock, you probably haven't noticed that free speech has been obliterated by the the technocratic progressive establishment. This is why you can't have a twitter, Facebook, google (etc) account without using a phone number addresses and other identifying information. Not to mention that you all willingly post photos of yourself on those platforms. Any way if you were the type of person who thinks "well I'm not doing anything wrong, so what does it matter." Then you wouldn't know about all the arrests, convictions, and thought patrolling that has been going on in response to peoples comments. That's right folks what you post can get you in trouble with the law.
In response Andrew Torba Created Gab, something like twitter, that you can sign up to anonymously. This allowed many people to talk freely about what ever they wanted. This up set the progressive establishment, so they attacked Gab.
First, in December 2016, Apple removed their app, citing porno graphic material. Never mind all the Instagram and twitter thots.
In August 2017 google removed the app from their store for "violating hate speech policies". So you see folks, free speech is gone.
September 2017 Gab was pressured from the domain registrar associated with a string of politically motivated domain seizures. this type of action makes progressives wet.
After being banned by PayPal & Stripe, Gab starting using crypto, only to have Coinbase & Cash App closed Gabs accounts. Pretty scary crypto lovers! keep offline wallets!
So after all that, they are back up (minus a phone app) and you can make an account, which I suggest you check it out. However, the establishment have pushed even further, with the complete ban of Alex Jones, the shutting down of many accounts across youtube, twitter and face book. Now what this has done has made the censorship plainly observable and not just a rumor (or conspiracy theory) of the paranoid.
In response to the above, Andrew Torba created Dissenter browser plugin (which you can also sign up to anonymously) which allows you to comment on anything in your browser independently of the (technocratic progressive establishment) platform. This means the comments can not be blocked or deleted by the creator of the content. It means I can make an assessment of any criticism, of anything I see on the internet. No matter what the platform, Youtube, Twitter, Facebook and yes even Steemit. It is now open season on ideas.
The beauty of the system is that the snowflakes will never join and hence avoid being triggered, while the content anyone creates can be independently criticised for everyone to see, for the life of the plugin. A win win.
