This guy is single handedly saving the internet. I'd love to see him and Musk team up.
What platform does he run?
Gab
Gab. Where have you been?
I know Gab. It takes a while before I remember the names of the CEOs of companies or politicians of political parties. Thanks :)
As the replies show, GAB.
He went through all of this back in 2016 when apple dropped them from the app store because of "pornography" ( yet porn is allowed freely on twitter? ). 2017 gab was dropped by the playstore because of "hate speech" on the app
Pretty much all of 2017 and 2018 the platform was targeted and hit with the same shit people going thru right now.
So yea the guy been thru the ringer and knows how shit is and people are finally waking up.
I am waiting to see what happens though if Charlie Kirk and his people get kicked off twitter, where they are going to go. It would be hypocritical of them to use gab.
What did Charlie say that would make it hypocritical of him to use Gab?
GAB was one of the sponsors of their student action summit in florida in 2018 and a couple days before the event TPUSA basically dropped them completely without giving gab a reason.
Most likely due to pressure from somewhere

Musk is being propped up as a good guy. I have a bad feeling.
His recent tweet said something along the lines of "A lot of people are going to be super unhappy with West Coast high tech as the de facto arbiter of free speech"
Also said earlier last year it was time to break up amazon
I know, he says things that seem like common sense. Easy to build up good will that way. Also Amazon is a competitor, so there is that.
Because he IS a good guy. Has always been one to support true freedom. He knows this is why he was able to get to where he is to today. He has stated many times how the freedom of the US allowed him to achieve his dreams. (well on his way to achieving them.)
He’s a real life Tony Stark. Never got the hate for him.
Except it’s government contracts and support that allowed him to achieve his dreams.
Just like Bozos and Cuckerberg
That was how Tony Stark got rich too, remember?
I 'm not quite nerdy enough to know Tony Stark's character history. All I know is that Facebook, Amazon, and SpaceX would have gone bankrupt long ago if not for the government contracts. It's one thing to profit from government contracts; it's another thing entirely to owe your existence/survival to them.
SpaceX getting government contracts saves us from the black pit of the Nasa budget
I'm not saying SpaceX should not be getting government contracts. They've done amazing work. My issue is when Elon claims to be self made or people call SpaceX a capitalist success story. It's not at all; it's a crony capitalism success story.
I also take issue with the government picking winners and losers. Amazon and Facebook should have gone bankrupt a decade ago.
And i used the governments idiotic first time home buyers program that inflated housing costs just like the banks continuing to lower interest rates and inflate home costs to justify peoples willingness to be a slave to multiple 30 year debts just to have a fucking roof all while we get addicted and upgrade multiple times....
Am I a bad person for supporting this system? I don't think so, it's all fake money, who gives a shit.
I also used to talk shit about tesla HARD for the same reason, with some self reflection i realized i was hypocritical. Are the subsidies idiotic, yep, would i have used them to become even a fraction as successful as him? Yep. If he stays the course of common sense and a true independent i'll keep backing him. when he doesn't then i won't blindly follow him.
Tesla is not a mere company taking subsidies. It's also a ponzi scheme. They fund current operations by getting suckers to put down deposits for cars they have not designed or don't really intend to manufacture. (Like the $30K Model X). The only product they have that is profitable is the energy credits they sell to other car companies. On top of that, they use a multitude of accounting tricks to show profit like Enron. Sooner or later, this deck of cards will fall.
Elon is right about a lot of stuff, and he deserves credit for that. But be real.
So star link, rockets flying up and down, best performing vehicles (ignoring how electricity is produced, battery, and recyling. I know that part is shit), all don't exist? Wouldn't a ponzi typically offer borderline no product? Didn't banks refuse to fund him? Thus deposits?
Profit? Do any big companies do that anymore? It's horse shit but pepe hands
I didn't mean to say all he did was take some gov handouts and boom, i admit i over simplified but i'm used to doing that for everyone to digest anything.
I don't disagree it's all horse shit in some capacity. But it's all horse shit we enabled for decades and decades of slippery slope and being placated. We as in we the people. Past, present, future.
I just find him to be a lot more grey than black or white. I feel he is independent and leans the "right" way on things.
I think we are genuinely in more agreeance than even i still think we are.
I didn't say Star Link or SpaceX are ponzi schemes.
I said Tesla is a Ponzi scheme. I don't agree that Tesla makes the 'best performing vehicles,' but even if they didn't, that doesn't translate to profitability. Fact is without the energy credit scheme, the 'clean energy' subsidies, and the suckers that keep buying into the ponzi scheme that is Tesla, Tesla wouldn't exist anymore.
Musk is NOT a good guy.
Family was rich and well connected. He came to first Canada and then US with money. He had an angel investor prior to heading to CA. The one thing he did was Zip2. He sold that and bought into paypal where he made more money.
The below link gives an altered outline of the events at Tesla.
https://meaww.com/elon-musk-tesla-cofounder-lawsuit-settlement-original-founded-martin-eberhard-origin-story-tesla
He basically stole Tesla from its founders. Got in because he had money, but also negotiated himself stipulations that he could have input into the design. From there it was easy for him to keep making changes that prevented them from reaching production. When they ran out of money he bought the company and fired the founders. BILLIONAIRES DO THAT SHIT ALL THE TIME. Now, Tesla has only become "successful" because the government is mandating automakers to reach a certain amount of energy credits each year. Since competitors weren't producing EV's yet, they had to buy the credits off Tesla.
And this wasn't a matter of legacy auto being greedy or lazy. It was an issue of having to design and then build the means of production for an entirely different vehicle while simultaneously supporting your core market and workforce. By definition this policy favored Tesla right out of the gate and punished legacy auto manufacturers. Hmmm, I wonder if a billionaire like Elon could have had anything to do with that?
Also look up solar city. Huge scam. Awful company. Lot of government contracts. https://www.consumeraffairs.com/solar-energy/solarcity.html
Space X however seems to be not as horrible as everything else and are one of the few co's pushing us back toward the stars. But that is also taxpayer money funding that company.
Okay, I'm done.
Ironically Spacex is launching 15,000 low orbit satellites (currently only 5k total) that astronomers are complaining will make observation of the cosmos more difficult.
Filling the night sky up with more junk.
Recommended reading for anyone that wants to understand Musk and how he operates:

it's interesting that he's anti de-population talk.
Gut feeling is he creeps me out. Transhumanism creeps me out
big mad lol
B I G L Y mad even
Based Andrew Torba might be a mad genius.
LEARN TO CODE
Any CEO that says big mad and hates journagandalists has my support.
LOL @ “big mad”.
LOL. I was wondering why there was no search.
What if gab and parler partnered? Good or bad?
I like it, but you know his site can be indexed and searched externally by a third party.
BASED. Based FTW.
BIG MAD
No more public APIs on social media sites. Everything should be human and organic. Businesses and automation can fuck off.
Watching him cut the bad guys off at every turn is just the best.
What does this mean for functionality? Does it limit based on the age -- for example if I want to "mass search for public statuses" about dinosaurs, or current events, can I still do that?
Totally speaking out of my ass here.
There is a search function on Gab.
However it looks like it is a universal search with very few filters.
It does not look like you can efficiently pick a particular individual and search deep into their timeline in a focused manner such as "before xx date".
If you wanted to seek out whether specific people dropped the "N" bomb several years back you could search the word "N" but you would have to manually scroll through thousands of users use of the term over many years chronologically to find it.
Trying to find decades old offensive posts by users will take big resources and time.
But... I think can be indexed, I believe that was an option in settings, by search engines. So I am guessing there could be a way with third party SE filters.
I'm not an expert either, but wouldn't any sufficiently large enough account be indexed automatically by the Wayback Machine?
In the case of something like a social media account IF way back works that way to automatically index it wouldn't occur until a particular account becomes prominent enough to warrant that kind of archiving.
People are being cancelled over things being said while not being of any wide reputation.
Think of these whistleblowers, George Zimmerman, Nick Sandman, Melissa Carone and others who are regular folk suddenly on the spotlight being ravaged by big media and psycho woke doxxers etc. Way back has no reason to have a history on them prior to a spotlight event.
Eh, you want search. It’s pretty important for an information based site.
So what happened to Gab? Are the servers just overwhelmed still? I made an account few days ago and haven't been able to get on since.
Yeah, but your typical journo is retarded.
Lame excuse.
You censor some bad words on your site, just cause I raped your mom last night
