MyPillow Guy’s New ‘Free Speech’ Site Will Somehow Ban Curse Words and… Lying


MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell’s new “free speech” social-media site apparently will ban patrons from using naughty language or saying the lord’s name in vain.

Oh, also, without any hint of irony, the site—which the pillow mogul created after he was booted from various platforms for peddling outright lies about the 2020 election—will prohibit users from pushing “out-and-out” or “complete” lies.


This guy is hilarious!

I think MC platform here is the real definition of free speech about 95% of the time. Sure I got a couple of posts deleted for reasons unknown (since they never give you one) but for the most part it's mostly free within the context you aren't just some outright racist. You can use racial slurs here but it has to be within context of not using it for the sake of using it or used in a racial way but explaining it or has to do with whatever the article in question entails.

This site is classic web 1.0 free speech. The way it should be.

Agreed!

I think his intentions are "pure" (i.e. I think he actually believes what he's saying), but once the floodgates are opened he may be in for a rude awakening if he thinks any technology can truly curtail misinformation and extremism (although we'll have to wait and see before we know for sure). It could potentially become a haven for alt-right nutjobs, who yell the loudest and overshadow more reasonable thinkers. True believers of any persuasion will often eventually crash and burn because they've closed their minds to all other possibilities. Having said that, as bad as the religious Right is, they're dwindling into a minority (have been for a while now), and yet almost the entirety of the Left has devolved into one big group-think religious cult full of sheep that's far, far worse than anything Lindell represents.

The most hilarious part is that wokism is just rebranded Christianity.

Being White = Original Sin
"Sides of History" = Heaven / Hell
God = Equity
Jesus = George Floyd
Satan = Fascism
Love Thy Neighbor = Black Lives Matter

These weirdos also gather en mass and sing hymnals. The cult aspect is that they teach their congregation to disown family members and friends that aren't in the woke cult.

Which is the exact formula for Scientology, NXIVM/DOS, etc. Disrupt, divide, and control through social engineering methods.

I don't give a shit what Mike Lindell does, but he sure makes a damn fine pillow!
