The alt-right's new safe space: Gab

>Gab is a new social network built like a hybrid of Twitter and Reddit — posts are capped at 300 characters, and the crowd votes to boost or demote posts in the feed. But Gab’s defining feature is its user guidelines, or rather, its lack thereof. Gab bans illegal activities — child pornography, threats of violence, terrorism — and not much else. “Facebook, Twitter and Reddit are taking the path of censorship,” Utsav Sanduja, Gab’s chief communications officer, told me via email. “Gab does not.”

>Think of Gab as the Make America Great Again of social sites: It’s a throwback to the freewheeling norms of the old internet, before Twitter started cracking down on harassment and Reddit cleaned out its darkest corners. And since its debut in August, it has emerged as a digital safe space for the far right, where white nationalists, conspiracy-theorist YouTubers, and minivan majority moms can gather without liberal interference.

who the fuck uses that shit, bunch of faggots

you should browse all variations of news sites, know your enemy

>Safe Space

>No censorship

So, it's literally the opposite of a safe space...?

They could always just put them back on twitter? They didn't leave voluntarily after all.

>without liberal interference

Liberals are free to post on there, AFAIK

I don't think they ban them.

> Gab bans illegal activities — child pornography, threats of violence, terrorism — and not much else

So they're saying Liberals engage in child pornography, threats of violence and terrorism?

>safe space
>literally allows any free speech
>was created because Twitter started banning people

Leftists are so fucking stupid

Thing is liberals never would, because in an environment without a corporation to protect them and their delusions they would be eaten alive.

I find it hilarious that an app with absolute freedom of speech is considered a safe space for anyone and not THE STANDARD

Fucking this.

I got I.P banned from twatter, what can I do?

Sounds like a hugbox to me. I get what they were trying to do but this will fail. Without discussion and alternative opinions it will turn into a self righteous echo chamber regardless of their political ideologies.

>literally the opposite of a safe space...?
safe from censorship and being banned for having an unpopular opinion
>Liberals are free to post on there
Funny how the mainstream globalist media has to ban nationalist views, but the same dirty tactics aren't used on the other side.
> Liberals engage in child pornography, threats of violence and terrorism
you don't say?

They really make no sense.

>LOL DO YOU NEED A SAFE SPACE!

>No. I'm happy to stay on twitter

>NO, THIS IS A SAFE SPACE

>Okay. Well I will go where I can freely discuss my ideas

>LOL SAFE SPACE

>You're free to come there and challenge them

>OMG IT'S JUST SO SAD WHAT AMERICA HAS BECOME WE'RE JUST SO DIVIDED AND I JUST CAN'T BELIEVE HOW SAD THAT IS WHY WHY WHY I GUESS NO ONE HAS THE ANSWERS

It's like dealing with Anti-Fa.

>FUCK FASCISTS, TASTE OUR BOOTS, SMASH THE STATE!

>o-o-fficer, those r-racist men are staring at me

>corporate m-media, please m-make the fascist pigs arrest those men, we're s-scared

Also;

>Pizzagate
>Conspiracy theory and lies

Sort of like Campus Rape Hysteria - Which of course, even when debunked, still manages to find column space in the MSM.

Or any number of Trump Hate Crime Hoaxes.

>ban people from all other areas
>they make their own area
>call them a bunch of pussies for this

I don't understand, they kicked the right wring out, what do they expect? that people they ban from their club house just kill themselves?

Reminds me of this

I have an account and you could literally ban certain words from your TL

>New York times
next time archive that shit, they don't deserve clicks.

Leftists always project.

And they've been projecting this "safe space" shit on us for the last year or so and it never makes any fucking sense

>durr you have an online community which is uncensored and anyone can post whatever they like with minimal moderation?
>hurr enjoy your safe space dudebros you're just as bad as the people you claim to despise who censor everything and ban "privileged" identities from entering

The argument is that merely existing is a form of pussy safe space to them.

>lol man up and kill yourself or sit down and be quiet

They're mad as fuck that there are alternative sources.

They figured that once they had opposing views banned from twitter, these opposing views would just disappear. Instead they just went somewhere else.

They'll probably call Gab a Fake News Router and have it shut down at the ISP level.

It's a "Russian Spy App"

This.

>HAHA THIS IS THE ALT RIGHT SAFE SPACE IS IT!? BIG BABIES

>weird. it's almost like you posted that without being banned

>FUCK OFF

>direct link
Archive that shit. Also, I find it hilarious that leftists who pushed for safespaces at schools/unis/work then have the gall to try to throw that term at others to demean them.

You niggers do know that Gab is run by an Indian Globalist named Utsav Sanduja, rrriiiiggghhhtt ?

Pic related.

This is clearly an unsophisticated plan to relocate alt-right presence from online media where it has been actually reaching people to (((Gab))) echo chamber and marginalize non-MSM-compliant opinions.

Is it me or does every website with the most free speech have the most conservative audience. I can't point out one website that bans liberal views

Conservatives have confidence in their ideas, progressives KNOW they are full of shit

Don't care desu
He gave me a place to express my opinions I'll gladly be his puppet

Tell me why are corporations 'protecting' liberals specifically?

Good goy, go to Gab and stay there.
We don't need your hate speech and fake news on our platforms, don't disturb normal people with your lies.

Globalisation is good for their profit margins

Isn't it weird that a shitskin works for a "far-right" social media company and twatter is run by a muzzie apologist leftist white cuck ? My cortex has been vortexed.

Because they are useful idiots who has people strive for communism. The reason why the elite want socialism is because they know power is better than money

Or it's because they tend to hold unpopular opinions forcing them away from the mainstream to where like minded people share their unpopular opinions and their views are deemed acceptable.

I was going to try Gab out sooner or later but just for the laughs, not because alt-right.

I got called a good goy today I'm so happy :D

Get a new twitter handle

>Borscht slurper
Arent you just a pussy riot, kill yourself.

alt right is losing momentum because Twitter is dying and also normal people are becoming aware of how easily you can false flag tweets

Calling Indians 3rdworld shitskins is funny becasue they WANT to be better than that, they WANT to be like the west.

Indians are ugly, smelly, inbred, and have dicks so small even Koreans make fun of them for it, but they have the potential to be a decent country one day if they can get over their delusions of adequacy and hypersensitivity to criticism.

Marxism never makes any country better, and they don't give a shit about making the west worse, they just want to make themselves better

Bait me harder Mexican Bro.

>Reddit cleaned out its dark corners
No it fucking didn't it just destroyed any views opposing it's narrative and anti joke subreddits, if it actually cleared out its dark corners it would have gotten rid of subreddits where you can watch people die, look at dead fetuses or sell your used panties or bodily fluids.

this.

its not a safe space its a hugbox

see 4 chan's pol for a good example of this they even have automatic scripts to echo friendly agreeable sentiments

At least it brings dissent to light and allows for an actual conversation compared to reddit just sweeping the subject under the rug.

r/fatpeoplehate started it all

if you want to look at it objectively Reddit banned memes and then there was a massive social media migration that formed what we now today call alt right

>Or it's because they tend to hold unpopular opinions forcing them away from the mainstream to where like minded people share their unpopular opinions and their views are deemed acceptable.
Or it's because they tend to hold unpopular opinions forcing them to take criticism on a regular basis and constantly question their ideas and hold their ideas based on logical reasoning as opposed to "just becasue they are told they should think that way"

Could you link me to this "Sup Forums"?

It sounds interesting.

>sell your used panties or bodily fluids.
So it's liberating shekels from Sup Forumstards and some of their ilk here on Sup Forums

They have the potential, but the problem is their country is stuck in a caste mentality. They have to rid themselves of the castes first and that shit ain't going to happen any time soon.

Why can't you be more like Nippon? A solid and straight forward answer instead of regurgitating bullshit stemming from paranoia.

thats not even true I've been shadow banned many times for questioning (((Trump))) in the paid shill threads

...

Up voted!

>Sup Forums is a safe space hug box

Only if posting irrelevant shit and getting 404d is somehow a "safe space practice". Everything is fair game on pol

It's just liberals get btfo because their logic is inherently flawed.

Pics or it didn't happen

This

It's the Failing New York Times, what did you expect?

I honestly think that India would benefit from breaking up, same as china would benefit from that. America works becasue of it's federated state system, same as Australia.

>Literally Retarded: The Post

just go into the trump general and point out that there are full time posters violating the board rule about avatar fagging

enjoy your temp ban

who cares?

are you going boy cot anything that has a jewish or nonwhite CEO or foudner or large shareholder?

Are you going to go live in the woods?

If he's offering something that is in our interests then why shoot ourselves in the foot and not use it?

who cares if we help and indian at the same time as helping ourselves?

dumb retard

This kind of thinking is why stormfront-style white nationalism is a hindrance to the alt right and gaining ground in the culture war in general.

>404d
Well even relevant threads have been getting 404'd as of late, don't tell me you haven't noticed that ? One week prior to U.S elections was an absolute 404 shit show.

>he doesn't know how to change his IP address

I did nothing happened they just yelled at me

>minivan majority moms

What does this mean?
Is it another way of saying white trash?

screenshots or it didnt happen

i literally said the opposite

it is NOT a safe space retard its a hugbox

It was more to trigger the Stormfront types, desu. Shoudl've clarified that from the get go, my bad m8.

Gas yourself, cretin. The media are raving about safe spaces because they dont get to ban """racists""" from gab like they do from twatter and faceberg. Theres a social medium you can use even if you have extreme views. You can also read all sorts of media if you want including the SJW ones. That's not contradictory.

Touché

>wants free speech
> "haha alt-right nazis need a safe space. Cry babies."

God I wanna beat the shit out of Richard Spencer
deus vult

>twitter bans alt-right people to create a safe space for twitter users
>alt-right people migrate to a new site that won't ban them
>"lol, alt-right babies. Do you need extra diapers for your safe space, lol"

Why are liberals so retarded?

>app doesn't want to censor mean words
>oy vey it's anuddah shoah everyone look at dis app for da right wing nazis

>God I wanna beat the shit out of Richard Spencer
Yea he really is a plebbit tier attention whore.

>Gab bans illegal activities — child pornography, threats of violence, terrorism

Twitter allows all of these things

Join the club

>people willingly decide to gather and exchange information at a private place

how is this news?

Kek

Yep. Quit Twitter because my accounts kept getting locked.

>to go website with no cenorship because other websites censor you
>safe space
That's like the opposite of a safe space, why are liberals so retarded

The fuck. That's already what Sup Forums is. Why don't normies realize that?

Because the founder is a conservative and trump supporter who pisses off Silicon Valley Giants because he's the only one uncucked

>see 4 chan's pol

>cripple channer forgetting which site he is on

no, Sup Forums is the safe-space.

Dude it's midnight for you guys go to sleep

What's the difference?

(not arguing, I honestly have no idea what the fuck a hug box is meant to entail)

Way past midnight.

Then how did you make that post?

I mean liberals can go on there too. This article is basically admitting Twitter and Reddit are liberal safe-spaces

>image not named holo-holocaust.jpg

opportunity lost

>Way past midnight.
Are you drinking my Kangaroo ?

>no censorship on speech
>digital safe space

LOL, these liberals truly have infantile minds.

>The alt-right's new safe space
They could not project more

>ban people from your website
>"HOW FUCKING DARE THEY GO SOMEWHERE ELSE?!"

>tfw no Spencer bf

>ban the alt-right from twitter
>complain about it being a safe space when they create their own
haha, oh wow...

>>Think of Gab as the Make America Great Again of social sites: It’s a throwback to the freewheeling norms of the old internet, before Twitter started cracking down on harassment and Reddit cleaned out its darkest corners.

Hmm, this seems contradictory.

>that people they ban from their club house just kill themselves?

Preferably. They don't just want you to not voice those opinions around them, they don't even want those opinions to be allowed to exist.

how much did twitter pay the (((nytimes))) to publish this?

>sign up for invite for closed beta in the third day
>still haven't received it

>people are now aware of it existing
>twatter bleeds even more users

then help your user friend you fukkin british teethless cunt
cant belive that scumbag
