I don't know why but I thought Gab at least pretended to be a normal social media website that happened to harbor everyone that got banned from Twitter for being too big of a Nazi.

Yeah, most of the time when a social media platform starts banning people for being horrible and a side comes up that says "hey it's like X but without the censorship you got banned for!" the person that created it is either so tragically ignorant I'm shocked they can remember how to operate their lungs or a horrible person themselves.

For people like me who were confused as gently caress, gab is the more-nazi twitter that has just been taken offline by their hosting company deciding they weren't doing business anymore.

Gab is the "MUH FREE SPEECH" company that has decided a private company (GoDaddy) exercising their right to free speech is actually censorship.

Anyway, content.

He's a complete fascist who plans on purging people who disagree with him and has an especially large hate-boner for indigenous peoples who might stand between him and his mates and Brazil's mineral wealth. He has said "minorities have to adapt to the majority or simply disappear" and that "not one square centimetre" of Brazil will be reserved for indigenous people.

Yes, that was all discussed in the article I linked.

I have to laugh at "We're not going anywhere" because at the moment the unspoken phrase after is "because we have no host to go to."

As someone who works in web development, these meltdowns are always entertaining.

No one is censoring the internet. You're perfectly free to express yourself and you still have your domain registered and whatnot. It's just that private companies that provide hosting services, i.e. hardware to run your poo poo on so you don't have to figure out how servers actually work, are under no obligation to do business with you. If you can figure out how to run your own poo poo, you're more than welcome to continue your virtual nazi circle-jerk.

Where did they pull that 80% figure from? I'd be shocked if even 50% of Americans have ever even heard of Gab and I'm being generous.

It's not "80% of people have heard of Gab". It's "80%of people agree with (our incredible narrow and specific idea of) free speech"

I guess you didn't see all the tweets. GoDaddy is suspending their domain, and has given them twenty-four hours to find a new registrar. It's all been very funny.

That's what Gab is claiming, anyway.

All right, thread. You've done me in. I actually vomited after reading that pedophile incel poo poo. I may not be able to eat carrots again, and that sucks because I love carrots. Between that and the transphobic bullshit and the racist bullshit and the homophobic bullshit and the misogynist bullshit, I just don't find it funny anymore. It's just too goddamn depressing. Y'all are doing great work finding and sharing this horrible vat of poo poo that is humanity, because it's important that this stuff sees the light of day. I just can't deal with it anymore and I stopped laughing a long time ago. I salute you all.

Yeah I try to ignore twitter as a rule. I'm sure finding a registrar will be easy enough, hosting not so much.
