How can I help? I quit fb Twitter Instagram and YouTube last year- summer 2020

I do tell friends they are helping the enemy by remaining, some think they are fighting the good fight to keep getting suspended on these platforms. They don’t get that just their presence of profile helps them

Just submitted my form. Looking forward to doing what I can to help!

We need an alternative platform also for LinkedIn which I got suspended from. A lot more are getting suspended every day for sharing the truth.

I'm asking like-minded folks to help me fund a documentary film about covid "vaccine" injuries and deaths all over the country. Kindly take a moment to look at my GoFundMe page and share it, please. Thank you. https://gofund.me/38e65499

I suspended them months ago and several others..Steve I suggest you look at alternate banking ... when you see how GABs finances are limited they need a flow of money to grow .. as do others, it really is a key area, and honest alternatives are needed

Agree it would be good to start crowd-sourcing efforts but we should unify with others already doing similar activities as much as possible. I believe there is a lot going on with Telegram including some video production, but that is a tedious platform to try to organize crowd-sourced efforts. I am skeptical about using Gofundme. They are famous for taking down anything that goes against the narrative. Maybe GiveSendGo would be a better platform to look into for raising funds?

If you could post a business plan about how you plan to do this and about how you may engage with other efforts already doing work in this area to do this most efficiently, then I'd be interested in helping.

I'll put something together.

Thank you. It seems there are a lot of us that want to do some cool things. If we can organize and collaborate effectively, it will maximize productivity and impact.

Bob,

While not really a business plan, this will cover the salient elements of the documentary film project. You mentioned “efficiency”. Efficiency is extremely important to me, too. That's why I plan to drive (a vehicle) throughout the country as I meet with folks and interview them. There are a number of advantages to using a vehicle over flying:

1. Video equipment is cumbersome and contains many components. There are the cameras and tripods, the lights and light stands and “Softboxes” (lighting diffusers), the microphones, tons of microphone and power cables and chargers of various types, external hard drives, a laptop computer, desktop computer (for editing), an inkjet printer/scanner/copier, and miscellaneous gear such as headphones, field audio mixer, near-field monitors (speakers), etc. It's a lot of stuff. It is simply inefficient to haul this stuff around on airplanes. Too much chance of loss, damage or theft with associated downtime, inconvenience and frustration.

2. No need to rent a car once you arrive at your destination: you've already got your car with you – always. Uber and Lyft are out of the question because of the constant hassle of loading and unloading gear and – inevitably leaving some important device behind in a stranger's car (more wasted time and frustration).

3. Driving (for me) offers an excellent opportunity to decompress, think creatively and productively, take notes, make phone calls, etc. Think of it is my “office”. Airplanes offer precisely the opposite experience.

4. Now here's where it really starts to count in a big way, Bob: In a single town or city I may have the opportunity to conduct 10 interviews (and grab B-roll footage) in the space of a few days. So... I'm able to nimbly and efficiently move from location to location (vax victim to vax victim) with a great deal of autonomy and flexibility.

5. Now... back to number 4. You see (and here's where the magic comes in), if you're very personable, friendly and a strong communicator, you never miss an opportunity to strike up a conversation with someone you meet at the local Walmart wearing a “Let's Go Brandon!” or “I will NOT comply!” t-shirt. You figure... there's a good chance that person may be anti Covax. So you say hello. Next thing you know... the guys own son was recently Covaxxed and had to quit the football team due to myocarditis. Now you've found some new material for your documentary. (I don't mean to sound crass when I refer to a victim as “material”, but... in marketing the goal is to persuade, educate, and entertain. And some folks just don't “work out”). So... you're invited to the man's house and he proudly shows you pictures and videos (of which you make copies) of his football superstar son – before he got his life stolen from him. And all because you walked into a Walmart an hour ago to buy some batteries for your wireless mic. That's how real life works for a video producer who knows how to work a problem, loves people, knows how to engage them and let them know “I'm a friend”. People want to tell their story. I know how to make them feel comfortable doing that. I love talking with people, I know how to ask a good question and I know the importance of showing empathy, respect and humility. If they offer to feed me lunch, I'll stay for lunch (even if I'm busier than hell and they're serving cow tongue). I genuinely love people – especially regular “flyover” people. If I didn't I wouldn't feel such a desperate need to do this project. By the way, Bob... the father of the football player? He's going to know EVERYONE in town (and the next town over) that's suffered from the clot shot. He's angry, bitter and sad and he feels a compulsion to let the world know. He will do whatever he can to get me in touch with those other injured folks for more interviews, etc.

6. So... many days will simply “unfold” before me (magic) – and to this extent I am NOT a slave to the clock or rigid schedules. They are antithetical to creativity and being open to magic. However, during this whole process, I'm reaching out to Dr. McCullough's office or seeing if/when Steve (Kirsch) can get me an interview with JFK,jr., etc. Stuff like that. It's a very fluid/dynamic/creative kind of process. Anyway, in the evenings (at the motel) I'm looking at the “dailies” – assessing what I do and don't like about the footage I gathered that day, taking notes, editing a few clips together, working on crafting the message, getting a “feel” for the flow of the documentary, writing pieces of narration, listening to production music, viewing and capturing another Bitchute clip of yet another Covaxxed soccer player collapsing; planning the next day, etc. In the case of dealing with a single major donor or investor, I will send clips of my footage periodically throughout the project, so they can be satisfied that I'm getting the job done. (Darn it! I forgot to get a picture of the young boy in the hospital bed with all the tubes and machines and medical paraphernalia. I'll call the dad tomorrow. Maybe we'll have lunch and I'll pick his brain for more leads).

Bob, this would go on for months: following leads, making phone calls, interviewing victims – or survivors of the deceased, trying to catch some of the big fish (Dr. McCullough, Dr. Malone, Dr. Zelenko). (I heard something about a big conference they'll be attending together in St Louis next week. So... I think I'll veer over that way and make some calls.) From time to time a plane trip may be necessary because of the importance of a particular opportunity. It really mustn't be missed. So... I'll get on a damn plane.

Regarding your excellent suggestion of pooling our resources, I'm all for that. We are more effective when we unite together on a cause. Mostly, I would benefit from victim contact information, powerful video clips I may not have seen, links to conferences or compelling interviews, etc. However, I will be remiss if I don't mention a few critical caveats.

1. In order for this documentary film to be ultimately engaging, entertaining (I know that's a strange word to use in this context) and powerful, it must not rely too heavily on footage already in the public domain. Or, rather, to the extent that it does use such footage, it must “work”. So... for example, I don't know if you had a chance to watch some to the victim hearings held by the courageous Wisconsin Senator Ron Johnson. There is some compelling stuff there – particularly of a mother speaking on behalf of her young, permanently disabled daughter sitting beside her in a wheelchair. Use some of that testimony in the documentary? Yes, definitely. But... once again, the documentary must “entertain”. So... the real project here is to locate that woman and her daughter and ask if they'll agree to meet with me for a personal interview and footage (B-roll) gathering. They WILL agree. They want their story shouted from the rooftops. Now we hear from the disabled girl herself. We hear her tell us that most of her friends don't text her anymore or stop by to visit her, and they certainly don't ask her to go bowling or skating with them. We see her weeping, we see her mother trying to console her, we see footage of the mother pushing her daughter up the newly constructed wheelchair ramp in front of their home. Now... we're talking about “entertaining” people. This is documentary filmmaking. Viewers will only stand for a limited amount of amateur “YouTube” videos – especially when the audio and/or picture quality is poor. This type of footage must be used very judiciously.

2. I am always open to excellent and helpful ideas or constructive criticism, but a project like this must have a singular creative individual (director) squarely behind it – in order for it to have a cohesive “feel”. To this extent, I do not envision this documentary being the work of a “committee”. I will direct the documentary and create and maintain its thrust in terms of messaging, use of imagery, choice of production music – the overall look and feel of the documentary film. That is what I am seeking here: Final creative control. But, as I said, I am always open to helpful ideas, challenging feedback and editorial advice.

Anyway, Bob, you're very nice to engage me about this project and I appreciate your input. Please let me know your thoughts. Feel free to call anytime.

Sincerely,

John de la Cruz

They suspended me today too.

Good Idea to delete my twitter account, I would love it, but I think will delete it once I got fired as you. My tweet community is tiny, so my audience too. Sometimes I got a few likes on my tweets from unknown peoples, I am then convinced I touched new people with my messages, from the good side, to speak simple ( For example I share your messages ). My strategy is the following, stay on twitter for sharing what we call our Truth, register on gab, substack, telegram and all aternative social medias in the same time, but also, stay a little away from all of this, for mental safety !!! Thanks Steve for your fight, just amazing, as many other good people in this world, for our future, for Truth, against Global corruption.

I left Twitter and FB. I use Telegram a little but honestly life is better without social media. I prefer to read articles by great journalists on substack. I read Epoch Times, Red State, Daily Wire, and many other articles through Conservative News app. I send articles to people I care about. I have an urge to post great things on FB etc but likely they will be blocked. I don't really watch TV but I listen to great podcasts. I think everyone should leave FB and Twitter.

Twitter may have the right to deny you the service, but they do not have the right to libel you.

The allegation that your tweet was "misleading" is defammatory. They are saying either that you are a liar, or an idiot, or both.

They broadcast that allegation far and wide. They could have just shut your account, but they chose to defame you as well. That was uncalled for and unjustifiable.

I would urge you to sue them for libel.

Legally, the onus then shifts on to them to prove that your tweet is "misleading".

Yes, my reputation took a huge hit in the way LinkedIn labeled my posts as misinformation when they clearly were not. I have thought about researching legal action against them as this had a big monetary impact on our business, which I was looking to get going again after I finish my current job in the next year.

Twitter shadow banned me 2 years ago.... All I did was to re-post mainstream media headlines... if they were ‘fake’ it was still, in large part their media of choice. However even with MSM some truth seeps to the surface.... once in a while.

Twitter suspended my account, no access, no feedback on their part, and it is still visible (to me).... I cannot delete it...I wish I could “suspend” it, their non-response is their trademark.

I think, one of the main things you should do for this purpose is make a video of vaccine injured people, real people. Thanks for your work!

Steve, you need to hook up with Karl Denninger of Market-Ticker.org. He can help with your blindspot on the PREP ACT and was also a programmer as sell.

Whilst I commend you for your Twitter Switch Project, this could be expanded on even better by not using, where possible, google services - like the form to complete to express interest in helping. The problem isn't just with Twitter, it's with all of them

Don't fall for the illusion.

There are nowhere near as many people on Twitter than you think.

Of the 75K followers you had, probably 10 to 20K were real.

Don't believe me?

How do you explain that when you first joined Gab you quickly gained 15K real followers and had x10 more interactions than you ever had on twitter?

You are wasting your time trying to teach Twitter a lesson. They really don't care. They de-platformed a former President, and no one bat an eye lid.

Twitter is huge propaganda research lab meant to:

- Brainwash the masses

- Influence politicians

Their main technic is to make minorities appear to be a huge majorities and sway political decision making.

It is all slight of hand and illusions.

Just like the voter rolls in many US states. They're inflated with zombies.

(Twitter is a research lab for psychological and political experiments. As long as they have the attention of most politicians, they really don't care.)

I don’t understand why so many writers and journalists allow themselves to be dependent on Twitter to promote their work when Twitter can boot them anytime, for no reason. A prominent anti-vax and anti-mandate guy is still shocked and butthurt months after his perma-ban, is suing, etc. Why? Twitter has always done what they like, and always will, so what did he expect? It’s far too shaky a foundation on which to build an audience. At this point, I wouldn’t trust anyone who hasn’t been banned.

Expand full comment

I've been banned several times. The last time I just couldn't be bothered going through the motions to get reinstated again.

The key is to realize who the audience really is and to try to play to them. Rather than what you like to think it is. And what they like to think it is. Nobody likes being wrong, but you shouldn't be able to just buy yourself out of it.

Try posting to gab instead. Gab is really good, and it will get better and better.

There's this tug of war between those who want to be out in the forefront on the adversarial platforms versus being on safe platforms where we can share. I really think we need to formulate and red-pill around safe platforms that allow us to unify and organize and then take that message back out to the blue-pilled world. Dr. Malone has a video that outlines some recommendations to go back to basics - meet in person with those that share a common perspective such as in churches, house-to-house, phone. Big Tech is not on our side and it will only get worse. We may need to resort to more traditional social communication until more robust tech platforms are stood up that can survive the onslaught. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=INHpQL9fgto&t=400s&ab_channel=Inspired
