        "home grown" terrorists are a far bigger threat then any of the unreal threats that @POTUS would have us fear. It takes this kind of senseless tragedy at a place of worship for him to finally come out against antisemitism? Shameful. White supremacists are traitors to US...

        Gab is just a platform. Don't like it? Don't use it. Personally, I'd rather know who the nutters are and, unlike some other platforms, Gab has been unconditionally working with law enforcement.

        Unlike Gab every other social media site self hosts. They weren't shut down per say, just booted from their host, which happens if the host doesn't want to host your site. They could just self host and they'd be fine.

        Perhaps you’ve not paid attention but Facebook and Twitter are being scrutinized and they are purging accounts. Not perfect but definitely not a cesspool like platforms such as gab.

        No site should be controlled by any government in the USA. Freedom of speech must be upheld by our Constitution. Gab must take this issue to Supreme Court.

        It’s a market issue, not a free speech issue. Content platforms like Gab aren’t constitutionally guaranteed access to payment services, hosting providers, or servers. Those companies all respond to market pressure and have the right to decide what content to host.

        That’s not hate speech. Just someone’s strong opinion that you disagree with. There is no such thing as ‘hate speech’ in the US.

        You must not believe in free speech and probably think "hate speech" is a real thing.

        You must not believe that businesses can choose who they do business with. If Gab want to self host nothing will stop them, but forcing hosts to host platforms they disagree with is exactly the opposite of the limited government regulations that most on the right want.

        That’s fair; if you were referring to me as being “on the right”, I’d like to ask you to have a look at my pinned tweet and cover picture, they show my political compass/ beliefs

        I saw your profile. My comment was aimed more at those on the right calling it censorship, as though it's a conspiracy rather than a company (or companies) making a purely economic decision.
