News came in tonight that a certain until recently popular short-blogging website owned by a beardy bloke named jack finally comitted hari kari by partaking in their own version of the night of the long knives, and zapped President Trump and a large number of his team & followers from their platform.
A number of people I’ve been following have been complaining about their follower numbers dropping faster than Bill Clinton’s pants around an intern.
BREAKING: Twitter says it has “permanently suspended” @realDonaldTrump’s account.
Utterly disgusting and censorship of our free speech. I’ll join any class action lawsuit at this point. I lost 10k followers in one day.

I have suspended my own Twitter account in protest against Twitter’s fascism. I ask all my followers to join me now on Parler and Rumble.https://t.co/XswC88juiGhttps://t.co/1YeTi0ywBk

My follower numbers have been dropping, but not quite as drastically, down from around 2750 to 2645 over the past week or so.
In response I’ve removed the Twitter + Facebook plugins from this and my other wordpress installations.
The surge in traffic seems to have caused problems at alternatives Parler + Gab to lag like hell prior to crashing because of the hamster powering the servers struggling to keep up.
