Russian Trolls Infest Gettr

When I first went on Gettr, a social platform similar to Twitter, I feared I would be bored.  Gettr is a conservative site and there would be little in the way of debate.  I was wrong.

Lately there have been a number of Russian supporters there, trashing Ukraine and President Zelensky and even posting official Putin propaganda claiming the Ukrainian leaders are Nazis.  I challenge them whenever I find them.

Sick of Twitter? Try Gettr

There is a new social media platform that closely resembles Twitter.  It’s called Gettr and it’s growing quickly. I have an account now using Stogie2 as my sign in name.  Many well known conservatives have opened accounts there now.

Check it out.

Massive Leftist Attack on Free Speech

 Yesterday all the leftist social media outlets, i.e. Twitter, FaceBook and Apple, moved to eliminate conservative thought and argument from the internet.  Twitter eliminated numerous conservatives from their platform, not only the President of the United States, but Dan Bongino, Rush Limbaugh, Tom Fitton and many others.

Most are going to Parler instead, but Apple has eliminated the Parler app from their App page, insisting that Parler must enact censorship rules acceptable to the leftist corporation, or no one will be able to download the Parler app anymore.  However, you can bypass the wormy Apple by accessing Parler on its web page at Parler.com.

Yesterday I deleted both of my Twitter accounts and will access that site no more.  If you have a Twitter account, feel free to do the same.

Whoa, Blogging Really is Dead, Isn't It?

Whoa, I got 14 hits on my blog today.  I used to get 500.  Of course, I have been off the blogosphere for two years so a loss in followers in to be expected.  However, blog readership is down for just about everyone.  Vox Popoli calls blogging a dead horse.  They may be right.  Social media sites provide much faster reactions and input, and many bloggers have gone to FaceBook, Twitter, Parler, MeWe. 

I believe the best use for my blog right now is as an accumulator site for my several projects:  YouTube videos, Photoshop and Adobe Illustrator projects.  It will act as  storage site for those efforts and a place for relatives and personal friends to visit.
