I know. It was hard. But if we won't even take a stand with these censorious assholes, and we let them continue spying on and censoring us, then where exactly will we armchair warriors take a stand?
So far, in 5 days, I've persuaded 13 of my friends to create a Telegram account and they all love it.
Take the plunge.
Fuck Zuck. Fuck Facebook. Take a stand for free speech. Don't let the CIA/FBI/NSA/DOJ/IRS watch your life.
They watch you already. I think privacy narratives are utter bullshit. Just like the voting machines aren't hooked up to the internet narrative.
Im sure a lot of you remember the radical left in the Obama days talking about how safe and secure machines are. That they AREN'T hooked up to the internet and impossible to compromise or tamper with. It goes even before then, im sure, that's just when I first remember being aware of the conversation. I think that was just to get us complacent. Now that the truth is out, the deep establishment, deep state & media want to set the parameters of the national conversation. Anything outside of what the news says is acceptable is politically incorrect(note: the news is really a catch-all phrase that encompasses the media, deep state and deep establishment). They dictate what free speech is supposed to mean and what is acceptable boundaries of the national conversation, even with the 1st amendment. The power of media propaganda and obedience to the state is powerful. Because you have to stay in those imaginary conversation lines or you will be labeled a domestic terrorist, a racist or something else; basically made politically incorrect somehow.
That acts as the pretense to target your political enemies and dissidents. The media (emulating north korea's) call it security, civility unity- whatever they have to.
I dont know about telegram, but unless they're super based, they arent any better.
