Amid censorship fears, Trump campaign 'checking out' alternative social network

May 28, 2019
They've been banned from Facebook, purged from Twitter and blocked from Instagram. Some of them have been barred from setting foot on the continent of Australia. But you can still find them all on the fledgling social media network Parler.

The Twitter-like platform was initially hatched last year as a tool for digital news outlets to claw revenue back from big social networks like Facebook. But as those platforms purge some of the internet’s most inflammatory supporters of President Donald Trump over posts deemed dangerous or offensive, Parler has carved out a niche among these banned right-wing influencers — like Gavin McInnes, Laura Loomer and Milo Yiannopoulos.

Introducing The American Conservative Union

ACU says, "We believe that the Constitution of the United States is the best political charter yet created by men for governing themselves. It is our belief that the Constitution is designed to guarantee the free exercise of the inherent rights of the individual through strictly limiting the power of government."

They believe also that Conservative is the belief of the sovereignty of the individual.

AT The Ponder, we believe, also, in the sovereignty of the individual. God made us all Priests and Kings over our own lives. The Constitution as much as reaffirms that by saying that all men are created equal with certain inalienable rights -- that is, rights that are given us by God through birth.

Facebook is being exposed as a naked propaganda organ that ought to be treated by law as a "publisher" legally responsible for the content it hosts, and not as a "forum" — the status it currently enjoys, exempting it from libel laws and other downsides to the content it spreads out to the world

Censorship, the suppression of words, images, or ideas that are "offensive," happens whenever some people succeed in imposing their personal political or moral values on others. Censorship can be carried out by the government as well as private pressure groups. Censorship by the government is unconstitutional.

Censorship is the Issue

by: Shonda Ponder
CNN has recently held an interview with Jane Coaston, and Irin Carmon about Censorship. They hold that there is no proof of Censorship and that Facebook and Twitter have the right to do with their platform what they like because it is about THEIR freedom and not the user's freedom, and if we don't like Facebook and Twitter, we should move elsewhere.

While they have a point about choosing another platform, it looks as if CNN, a leftist news outlet, is downplaying the importance of allowing free speech and room for debate on sensitive topics.

The Ponder is about proving that Censorship exists and with who and how, and we are posting the reasons cited for the censorship.

Google said on Monday that it would limit the software services it provides to Huawei, the telecommunications giant, after a White House order last week restricted the Chinese company’s access to American technology. Google’s software powers Huawei’s smartphones, and its apps come preloaded on the devices Huawei sells around the world. Depending on how the White House’s order is carried out, that could come to a stop.

Don’t let Zuckerberg kill free speech

Social media titans such as Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg have more influence over our freedom than Supreme Court justices or U.S. presidents. But these internet executives are selling out core American principles for the almighty dollar. They’ll do whatever a host country demands. In China, Russia and even capitalist Singapore, internet freedom is already dead, without a murmur of protest by Zuckerberg and others.

Introducing a NEW Social Media Platform: USA.LIFE

by: USA.Life

Washington, D.C. - May 16, 2019 - (The Ponder News) -- The new USA.Life "Christian Internet" helps Christians and churches "share the Gospel without censorship." USA.Life social network "replaces Facebook" and is "one of the greatest works of God, because it opens doors for teaching the Word of God," said Steven Andrew. He is the Christian Silicon Valley technology leader and pastor in charge of the effort.

Why is a Christian Internet needed? "Christians and conservatives are tired of falsely being called 'haters' by Facebook and Twitter for following the teachings of Jesus Christ," Andrew said.

Andrew built USA.Life to end the persecution of Christians and to bring revival to the nation. It is not a Christian only site, but is for all who love America.

Andrew believes Facebook's censorship of Christians could be billions of messages. "On my account alone, Facebook data reveals they block 5 million people per month from my reach. That is over 120 million messages censored the last two and half years." If you multiply this by how many other Christians are being censored, the number is billions of blocked Christian messages.

"Christians, churches and America need the hope of Jesus Christ - not the Gospel censored," he said.

"USA.Life allows users to freely quote the Bible without fear, like the founding fathers established. You can share the Bible teaches Jesus Christ is the only way to God not Buddha or Mohamed, and that homosexuality is sinful," Andrew said. "Following God is not hate speech, but is God's love and truth."

"If you want to go from censorship to true American freedom, then USA.Life is for you," he said.

"Christians and ministries are likely to see an increase in traffic," Andrew said. One Like at USA.Life may equal one hundred Like's at Facebook and Twitter, because USA.Life doesn't shadowban Christians.

To freely share the Gospel, it is important for "individuals and churches to sign up today" to "build the community to millions of people." Free accounts are available at www.USA.Life.

About USA.Life
"USA.Life social network is the answer to Facebook and Twitter censoring Christians, conservatives and liberty," says CEO Steven Andrew.

Breitbart: Twitter Is Banning Conservatives for Posting Facts

Although Congress has focused on Facebook’s alleged censorship in recent weeks, Twitter continues to engage in mass bans of conservatives with little outside scrutiny.
