You mean a boycott of about 10 million MIGA retards still assuming their cult is the majority?

>> No.25781894

>>25781231

What is it with people always taking a minority of a group and then painting the rest of the group with the same brush?

It happens to the left, with strong progressives being in the minority, but everyone assuming the entire left is the same. It also happens to the right, with far-right being the minority, and everyone assuming all of the right is the same.

Most Republicans are just normal people with an average level of enthusiasm for Trump. He follows the basic principles of right-wing politics, and that's the mean reason they vote for him. They are not obsessed with the man. And for that reason, they are unlikely to disrupt their own lives in solidarity. The same goes for what happens with Parler or whatever else.

A case in point was Trump's follower count: 88 million. That's GLOBAL. I'd be surprised if even a quarter of those are burgerland citizens, and many of those will also be democrats/independents who just want to watch the show.

The idea of all of the people who voted for Trump boycotting these companies is pure fantasy. You would be very lucky to get more than a million active users of these platforms to boycott them all.

This. An active user of Google, Apple, Twitter, Amazon etc would have to be seriously obsessed with Trump on an unhealthy level to give up using all of them.

I suspect we'll hear a lot of old people say they're boycotting them who were barely using these platforms anyway, which doesn't make any difference.

It's suppression of inciting violence. The same rules apply to everyone, including the left.

Trump and Parler had a choice: they can continue moaning about whatever they want, but they can't say anything that could be construed as inciting violence. They chose to ignore that, so they receive the consequences.

In fact, a lot of these platforms have been pretty lenient. Any normie saying the same stuff that Trump did would have been banned long ago. Apple has even said they will restore Parler to the App Store if they agree to moderate posts about inciting violence, which so far they've refused to do.

You have lived your life in an echo chamber and truly believe a civil war is coming. I have no hatred for Republicans. I do worry about anyone politically extreme on both the right and left using calls to violence over rhetoric, logic, and substantiated facts as a means of understanding the world.

Go outside. Leave your echo chamber. Read a book. Challenge yourself. Develop critical thought. You’re not a victim of anything you live in the most economically successful country in the world and you want to burn it down over...what? Put the next election on a blockchain. Trump had 4 years to propose legislation securing elections on blockchains and did nothing despite constantly complaining. If he tried to pass any legislation for securing the election, I would support him. Instead he acted like a mafia man child acting a tantrum and tried to threaten and intimidate people to “find votes” after his court cares all got thrown out. I don’t even like Biden that much either — he’s not gonna pardon Snowden so who gives a shit. I don’t want to burn this country down or see riots forever. Over what?

The rest will continue buying from Amazon and logging into Facebook and will at most help circulate schizo chainletters about their secret war against the deep state.

Trump literally tried to threaten numerous people to cheat the election while claiming fraud. He could have created security measures to prevent election fraud.

We absolutely need these as a country, because we are so hypernornalised we do not trust our media, our politicians, our government agencies, etc. A country so divided it can’t agree on fundamental reality is doomed. I’m deeply supportive of putting elections on blockchains.

My stupid ass Republican grandmother is also dead of COVID and I voted Biden because all of this has to stop. Immediately. Please stop denying reality when it becomes uncomfortable. Uncomfortable times are normal across societies. We do not live in a Utopia, but we used to live in the best country in the world for stimulating thought, progress, and economic prosperity. Some days, recently, I’ve began to doubt that.

Why are so many leftists unaware of the fact that they're in the same camp as statists/authoritarians? The only route to complete state power in the US is through leftist politics, because right wing priorities always circle back to downsizing the government.

I'm fairly certain a large portion of these mouthbreathing morons won't know what they're trying to boycott. Last week, someone told me they didn't want to use PayPal because of Amazon and asked if they could use Venmo instead. I literally cannot even anymore.
