If i let you use my computer network for free, I have the right to tell you you can’t do certain things with it, and I have the right to kick you off. Why? Because it’s my property, not yours.

The #3 user? Terrorists. 8kun was used to plan 3 different school shootings in a 6-month period.

We don’t have to guess. We know.

Who is the #1 user of completely free digital communications networks that let you say absolutely anything? Who most wants that?

So.

Have you ever had a bad gut feeling about someone and it was right?

“Censorship-free” social media sites quickly become Nazi bars where people exchange child porn. Normal human beings don’t hang out in Nazi bars with pedophiles.

Now, say you’re an ordinary person. You don’t like child porn. You’re not a Nazi. You don’t want to shoot up a school or blow up the White House.

Are you going to stay on a social media site that’s all photos of babies being raped, Nazis posting graphic descriptions of finishing what Hitler started, and plans for school shootings?
