As Jack promised, broader conservative Twitter suspensions have arrived. Today they include Michelle Malkin, Right Side Broadcasting Network, and the Gateway Pundit, according to OAN [link]. Despite gaining dozens of new followers, I lost another 200 net (down 11.5% from peak).
So, China sanctions hated foreign individuals in the United States [link here]—just as the Democrats themselves want to do with hated Trump admin officials and key supporters.
They wouldn’t do this unless they were confident that Biden wouldn’t retaliate. Disgraceful.
Well, on my first day of microposting, I made 11 posts.
Could I see doing this instead of Twitter? Sure. Especially if I install a plugin that automatically tweets each post. That’s my intention.

The encyclosphere is going to be great. Still getting the website and upcoming seminar ready. Video:
