If you are old enough, you may remember how about 2009 or so, there was this odd push of twitter into all corners of many if not all industries. You even had news anchors asking themselves befuddled, on air, why they are being made to push this nonsense twitter thing, and all the sudden all the companies were pushing for the use of twitter to reach out to customers, etc. That was both a long game, but it was also a means to centralize the conversation onto narrow channels that the government was actively monitoring with the help of a whole army of contractors. The same with facebook.
I think that it will take a lot of different efforts that need to be identified and then organized around and acted upon with focus; something our side is DEFINITELY not good at for a couple different reasons. But a good start would be low hanging fruits that we could even get alt-tech companies to join together on, to force the government to use gab and bitchute and parler, etc. because they are currently outright discriminating by only being on a few companies' services. It may backfire in some way, but it could also lead to the government being barred from using any social media if it does not use all social media, or it could force competition to even a small degree if all social media companies have to be on level playing field and can't be reprioritized.
I even think there could be a class action lawsuit by the Gabs and bitchute if the government does not publish to their sites or interact with citizens the same way as on the big sites. Wouldn't it be create to force Biden to have to publish to Gab and bitchute, etc the same way they publish to Twitter and Facebook ???
I do remember some of the push of using Twitter. People were kind of like "Whats a Twitter & why only 140 characters?" (Looks like there are more characters usable now, or it did the last time I went over to see a CatTurd tweet a couple months ago.)
Kind of fun in a way to have never had a social media account. I like being off the grid somewhat so to speak for those companies.
When you were talking about biden having to use social media, one of the best laughs I have had in awhile was the video from Florida from last summer where it was just a complete comedy of errors with how far behind his social media team was in technology.
I bet he would be a mess on other platforms.
I like your idea though of a class action lawsuit by the other social media companies.
It would be fun to watch them have to publish to the other sites.
Even better since rumble & gab are more free speech, it would be fun to also not let the official accounts be able to block citizens, even if the citizens are trolling.
I believe (this might be wrong), that at one point Mr. President Trump was not allowed to block people from his tweets.
This is a great idea you have here, fren.
No, that's right. And then they immediately blocked comments on Biden YouTube videos. I'm not sure if anyone is taking it to court or not, but it needs to be. Not only that, but just alone YouTube censorship on Youtube is also a clear proof that the government is engaged in censorship by only publishing to youtube that censors.
That would be fun.
Turnabout is fair play, my Mom used to say that.
I would love to see this administration treated exactly as Mr. President was in his term.
All the same kindness.
All the same ridiculous lawsuits.
I keep wondering how long it will take for biden to have a meltdown on camera.
He will never be pushed hard enough on purpose, but if he does have dementia it could happen fairly easily.
Actually you are on to something here.
It would be interesting to see this type of behavior unleashed on the administration.
After all, there is now precedent.
Great thinking. I like the way your mind works. ;)

That's a very low hanging fruit.
