So, how valuable to the left is the ability to promote their propaganda and censor their opponents? We shall see.

So, just a reminder…since Leftists are living in Clown Opposite world.

LEFTISTS ARE THE NAZIS. LEFTISTS ARE CENSORING. LEFTISTS ARE SEGREGATING. LEFTISTS ARE AUTHORITARIAN. LEFTISTS ARE SUPPORTING AND SUPPORTED BY COMPANIES BYPASSING DEMOCRACY AND INSTALLING POLITICIANS. LEFTIST OLIGARCHS OWN MEDIA AND SPREAD A NARRATIVE.

We, and Musk, are normal, free-speech loving world citizens who support democracy.

Gab’s owner has made Elon Musk a different offer:

Elon,

I founded Gab in 2016 because I believe in its potential to be the platform for free speech around the globe and I believe free speech is a societal imperative for a functioning constitutional federal republic.

However, since founding Gab I realized that in order to provide a free speech platform you must also have free speech internet infrastructure. Gab has since transformed from merely a social network into a free speech internet infrastructure company. We built our own servers, our own email services, our own payment processor, and so much more not because we wanted to, but because we had no choice if we were going to continue to exist.

What we are missing at the moment is an ISP. I fear that the next big leap of censorship is at the ISP level, with ISP’s blocking access to Gab.com. You solve that problem with Starlink. Together we can build infrastructure for a free speech internet.

I am willing to offer you a Board seat along with equity in the company in exchange for you selling your Twitter position and investing $2B into Gab. My offer is my best and final offer.

Gab has extraordinary potential. Let’s unlock it together.

Andrew Torba

CEO, Gab.com

Jesus Christ is King

I dont like it Nan, is Torba selling Gabs soul?

If you’ve followed the travails of Gab as Apple prevented it to have an app, as Google hid search results from it, as You Tube demonetized it, as financial institutions banned it, as platforms deplatformed it, you’d realize what Mr. Torba is seeing as the next threat is real.
And, as it so happens, Elon Musk has an answer, his Starlink system.
One of the unintended consequences of Elon Musk even threatening to buy Twitter has been an inundation of Lefties at Gab.
And, welcome to them!
All the better to see what they have planned.

Been on gab since Beta version Sept 2016., Ive seen all the assassination attempts of the platform. We all built gab, to have Torba offer it up? Ive seen the lefties and feds the trolls and moles. Want to see what they have planned the useless eater lefties havent a clue.

That doesn’t solve the problem. Gab is uncensored but is not visited by liberal voices. Twitter censors conservative voices. It would probably hurt Gab and Trump’s Truth Social if Musk bought and opened up Twitter, but that is what NEEDS to be done; CENSORSHIP needs to be eradicated.

It’s sad that eliminating it in the land of free speech is so expensive.

Hopefully Musk is what he says he is.

The democrat left of today is about to flatline. Those who still support the platform/agenda of the democrat party are becoming an obscure minority. The November midterms will drive a silver stake in the democrat party.

We are in the condition as a country solely because of the democrat party as well as weak squishy rhino republicans.

It is time to reverse course and Make America Great Again, Again

The left is completely transparent. They support fascism, racism, totalitarianism, the police state and censorship. Seeing their panic in the face of weaponry as powerful as their own is the only new wrinkle. And it is pleasing to the eye.

Elon Musk is just another egotistical billionaire plotting to become King.

Hmm, like gates and bezos?

And your point? is he less or more evil than Schwab? Gates? Rothchilds?

My point is that if we don’t limit the ability to buy political power with money, we’ll all become the property of the super-rich.

Did zuckerberg buy political power with the half a billion dollars he pumped into the 2020 election?

bidens job approval will soon be in the 20’s and then the teens. He has no where to go but down.

Should he run again in 2024?

You mean like this?
