I am expanding my alternative media accounts.  As more populists, conservatives, traditionalists, and nationalists (let’s call it the more assertive Right) are learning that the large global technology companies are hostile to their world view, others are developing and building alternative platforms to meet this need. Something conservatives of all stripes must accept is that globalist technology companies are not platforms for the “the more assertive Right.”

First, the most important thing for you to do is subscribe to the Charles Carroll Society blog on the left side.  Matt Drudge long warned against building your “Internet community” in the “ghettos of the Internet” i.e. Social Media companies.  We have hundreds of subscribers and over 700,000 unique visits on the Charles Carroll Society.  Our own blogs, and directly emailing each other, is currently our “hardest to disrupt” communication method for the “unwanted.” In this, as long as I have a functional email address for you, I can communicate with you. If you think about it, social media companies inserted themselves between content creators like me, and “subscribers” like you. Thus as many things, let’s recreate a direct relationship.

I have long been on Gab.com. Gab.com was one of the first social media companies to have an uncompromising dedication to free speech. If it is legal, you can say it, is basically their motto.  I have a tiny following over there, but I like to log into Gab.com regularly to look around. Also, for all the progressives and globalist, sure Gab.com has a higher percentage of “unpleasant” people. The reason is simple, while Gab.com is dedicated to freedom of speech for all, more people with “unpleasant” ideas have needed to find other means to communicate after being silence by globalist technology firms.  There is no iPhone (do not use Android) app.  I will need to try their new  Dissenter web browser as I really love the Dissenter application.  Can it use Tor natively?

For example a good guy named Nick Monroe was kicked off Twitter for helping to spread the word of the direct connection between the violent Antifa and journalists. Nick Monroe has leverage his Gab account and gained over 3,600 followers on that platform in several days. This pales in comparison to the 40,000 or so he had on Twitter. Yes Nick Monroe’s reach has been savagely reduced, but he is slowly rebuilding his audience and still communicating with those who want to hear him on alternative technology. And his core audience is following him over to Gab.com.  This is powerful.

I have also long been on Minds.com where I have 112 subscribers. I will look at more ways to leverage that account. I like Minds.com, and I think they are striking a better balance of getting their application into the Apple Store and being dedicated to freedom of speech.  For example, some content (hard 14 / 88, white supremacists, the Jews are responsible for everything stuff) will not appear on the application, but you can see it all in a web browser. They also have an 18+ filter which blocks “not safe for work” or NSFW content. I suggest you consider entering Minds.com to be entering a wild west salon back in the day.

My one complaint about Minds.com is that instead of accepting cryptocurrencies that can spend like dollars, they created their own separate cryptocurrency which is stuck in their Minds.com ghetto and doesn’t spend in the real world. To not allow Bitcoin seems like a selfish choice on their part. Just accept common cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin so our subscribers can help creators keep the lights on.  Infowars has lost its millions of followers on YouTube, but regularly puts out content on Minds.com where they have over 88,000 subscribers with over 7 million views.  Update, Facebook has just blocked all links to Minds.com.  We must accept globalist technology companies are waging war on smaller upstart competitors.  There is an iPhone app for Minds.com.

I have found a new alternative social media company called Parler. It is newer than Gab.com or Minds.com. It appears to be a direct rip off of Twitter.  It also seems to be dedicated to freedom of speech. I have not explored it or the owners that much, but it looks good with a very similar interface.  It is also an App for iPhone.

Also, we have a growing list of active supporters over at Subscribe Star. If you have not sent me some shekels over there, please do.  Subscribe Star is an alternative technology to PayPal, Chase bank or Patreon. It appears to be stable. It appears to be owned by a Russian located in Russia, thus is relatively immune to the authoritarian progressives and Western globalists who hate and attack everyone that does not bow down to their world view.

I anticipate that as we get closer to the 2020 presidential election, the progressive, globalist, open borders, larger government types are going to increase their attacks against “the more assertive Right” significantly. They are desperate to stop any and all anti-globalist movements, and President Trump is a core symbol of that. The entire world will be aligned against Trump. The Republican National Committee (establishment conservatives) has done nothing to defend the thousands of people who helped get Trump elected. Trump will have a lot fewer advocates next year. Nearly all of the “big names” have been deplatformed and unpersoned, while establishment conservatives have done nothing.

One of the “unintended consequences” or “second order effects” I see in the expanding alternative tech is how “more free” people talk to each other.  Nick Monroe sounds very different on Gab compared to how he did on Twitter.  These globalist technology firms were forcing people to “self-censor”; the most powerful form of censorship, as the censor lives in your head. Globalists forcing conservatives to develop and use alternative technology is once again putting the punch back into the conversation.  We on the more “assertive right” should have alternative ways to get an alternative narrative out there. This ability will be important going forward. I would take a moment to subscribe to this blog directly and follow me on any one or more of these alternative social media outfits now.
