    Question: What do Howard Stern and Donald Trump have in common.

    Answer: They both had a New York City CCW permit.

    See how liberal Governments work. All animals are equal, but some are more equal than others.

    That's not true. Just like the old example of yelling "fire" in a crowded theater.

    What is funny is how liberals think free speech is spewing four letter words and obscenity is an open political discussion.

    Well, there's certainly no fear of this site being crowded (after the day 1 suspensions are doled out)...

    I am not a liberal, but yeah that is part of free speech.

    Also, who chooses what is and is not obscenity? Words are words, none of them is more special than the other. What makes f*ck worse than **** and what makes **** worse than crap?

    We are hardwired to pass on our DNA. For men this means women with physical traits to bear healthy children are attractive. For women this means men with the ability to protect their offspring are attractive. And today this means men with a lot of money.

    Hell your ISP has a directory for your account that can be set up as a webhost.. We are all paying for that ability already ;)

    The only thing holding most people back is knowledge and know how!!

    I'm pretty sure it is. The whole FIRE thing is a disruption, words/thoughts that offend some and not others is what free speech is about.

    The point is, not all words are protected speech in all situations.

    If you have a ISP and a computer you have the equipment to make a server.. All you need now is some software "Cheap" and a website that teaches you how to do it, in your case!

    Actually hosting a site like the my pillow is fairly cheap, granted at some point you will have to buy more bandwidth if you start packing on the video stuff! But at that point you just start asking/begging/bugging your viewer for donations or offer a PRIME membership and nice 10 cent mug ;)

    Shipping not included!!!

    So now you're judging what is and isn't "free" society, that's funny :)

    99.9% of membership to a Mike Lindell-run Social Media site will be trolls... Were you expecting serious political, social and legal discussions??

    Your "culture" is highly selective as to what constitutes "free speech," ain't it? [​IMG]

    Technically no, Facebook controls opinion more than expression. As an example: Facebook/Twitter bans opinion, so you cannot say 'black people test with low IQ." This would be hate speech. Lindell will let you express whatever opinions you want as long as you use find alternatives words from the list of banned words to share that opinion. Ie, you can say Jew's are f'ing up our country as long as you remove the 'f-word'. You are allowed to have and state horrible opinions on his platforms as long as you do it a certain way. Facebook just bans the horrible opinions themselves.

    Anyways, I am for real free speech and won't be visiting his platform. He should just make a Christian Social Twitter platform, at least that would be new and wouldnt be yet another attempt at Parler.

    I will be using his MyStore Amazon competitor platform though.

    I know that trolls like to ruin everything for everyone. I'm sure there are many reasons why they do that.


    I'm not sure though how you came up with the 99.9% thing.

    Probably and probably enough to support the two people using his platform. Why would people flock there when Parler, Gab, and Trumpet are going to attract the three wings of the right that rejected or where rejected by Twitter?

    Anyways, he said he started this a few years back. With the microchip shortage, he better have started a few years back because he is going to be paying big for all the cpu's if he needs them now.
