President Trump's social media blocking, new media

All, after the East german style totalitarianism shown this week by big tech, I've decided to move off all alphabet, ******** and apple software(I have a mac, but I can't drop £1000 on a new laptop).

After researching just how far the reach of these companies is, I would like some advice on changing apps on those I use.

I frequent ******** messenger, Twitter, Youtube, Whatsapp and instagram while my email is gmail and chrome is my main browser

I'm happy to lose instagram as I haven't posted in years, same for ********, twitter has been replaced by Parler, but the messenger apps are those I'm struggling with. Emails will be a laborious move but not difficult, and youtube will be difficult to lose, but needs must. Are there any alternatives which can work with these messenging apps, but have no influence from zuckerberg and his KGB? And what is my best hope for a browser, which does not use google, or safari as a search engine?

After this I feel like I am gonna be boycotting Apple and Google products, won't be buying anything new where I will be stuck on their platforms. They are anti-trust and anti-consumer.

I'm pretty stunned at Twitter banning the sitting president of the United States tbh.

Basically just a sign of where society is moving though TBH.

I had a conversation on ******** with a friend from the past about the protests in the capitol. She was saying the DC "coup" was proof of white supremacy. I asked her how she reckoned that; a woman was shot, teargas was deployed, and the National Guard was activated in riot gear.

She gave me a woke browbeating about how obviously I was a racist etc. etc. I responded to her and a few others copemaxxers for about 10-15 minutes. Checked back in on the thread a few hours later after I got another notification and found all my completely reasonable comments (I only imply my power level on Cuckbook) deleted after her screed about my internalized white racism or some bullchit.

Left another comment just saying lol @ deleting my comments and found myself blocked in 5 minutes.

People are laying down in to the Matrix goo is my point. These people are not just passively supporting technocratic censoring, they are actively practicing it themselves and consider it a good thing.

Surprise surprise they are all intolerant leftists who think berating and cancelling someone is winning an argument.

Its only freedom of speech if it's speech that THEY agree with. At this point they're not even being secretive about it. It wouldn't surprise me if they declared Republicans to be illegal and disbanned their party.

I used to like Trump but he’s been a disgrace lately tbf and is lucky to not be in jail. He literally incited a fuking riot that led to people getting killed and literally tried to overthrow democracy.

How do you work that out? I’ve followed this closely and you’ll notice that most of the pictures and footage you see are literally the same thing.

They forced their way into a public building, what else did they do? The woman shot was trying to breach a door...

Overthrow democracy? Explain how

There was an article today in one of those liberal euro sexual news type sites that basically stated concern for Trump having the control to launch a nuclear attack.
I was actually shocked how silly and obvious it was. It read like a Gmiscer thread.

The anti-war president suddenly launching a nuclear strike?

Using an 80 yr old Pelosi as a source, who vandalized her own mansion a week ago.

They are losing it biggly. This chit has moved out of clown world into schizophrenia world.

I agree with this take. LOL @ anyone who was expecting Trump to lose gracefully first of all, but second of all where was all this handwringing about coups and violent takeovers when leftcels occupied Nancy Pelosi's office for a day as an AOC campaign LARP and accosted senators inside an elevator about muh women of color or some bullchit.

Nothing coy about it you’re just repeating what you heard someone tell you on TV.

There’s no point trying dude. Most people are too busy with their lives so they take what they see on CNN or MSNBC as fact. I’m not sure what the solution is to be honest.

Can sit and be mad all you want, the guys a fuking ******* and has turned the US into a laughing stock. Ignorant bias occurs throughout the political spectrum not just on the left, blindly sucking off tosspots like Trump is just as bad as people rimming BLM.

I hear you. Ofcourse both sides are phucked however, i n this case i think its quite apparent whos ''pulling'' the strings so to speak.

I sit on the fence and even I can see the pure bashing of Trump since he won the elections in 2016. The man did not get a breather. Heck the whole world laughed at him purely because most of the media in America were laughing at him. Every move Trump made was ridculed. His looks, the way he spoke, so far as to ridiculing his family. The guy IMO was dehumanised to the point that people would compare him to hitler etc. The guy did not get a break.

The US was and is a laughing stock because of how Trump was portrayed by his own people. His opposition did what they could to get rid and tarnish his name and they are doing a damn good job at it.

I agree his treatment by the media throughout the duration of his presidency has been utterly pathetic, on a par with all the anti brexit rhetoric we’ve had to put up with in the U.K. I liked the guys attitude previously but he’s become a meme of himself and a butthurt little fuk since losing the election and the way he’s been acting since is completely unacceptable. You can’t complain about bias on one end of the political spectrum then turn a blind eye to Trump being a bellend just to try and even things out.

The only person who seems angry is you. You got called out on regurgitating soundbites from the news and now you’re moving goalposts.

Some people walked into a public building and roamed around, big deal it comes with the territory.
