I've mixed feelings about this. On the one hand, opposition to big banks and big tech is welcome. But the replacement is precisely the thing that they claim to be fighting against. They want an economy built on exclusion, just one that excludes the right people.
It's always the way with conservatives. They don't oppose cancellation, censorship, or manufactured narrative. They just want to be the ones canceling, censoring, and crafting the narrative.
They aren’t opposed to big banks and big tech. They are opposed to regulations and rules.
They love regulations and rules as long as they are not bound by them. There is nothing they love more than adding regulations and rules to other people's lives.
They just love regulating genitals.
Entrepreneurs and influencers from across a spectrum of conspiracist and religious communities gathered in Las Vegas in March to discuss building an "uncancellable" future together.
Being “canceled” is a badge of honor for these fucks. It’s a marketing boon. No one uses this word in the real world. “Hey everybody, let’s cancel Trump, then he’ll go away!” Fucking idiots.
Parallel economy. Whites only!
And no girls allowed!
Why fix the system we have when we can ruin a brand new one?

GabPay founder Lonnie Passoff's interview with Peters included an exchange where the two sarcastically dismissed the idea that antisemitic conspiracy theories are hate speech.
Some of these businesses aren't small: At one point, pillow salesman turned pro-Trump conspiracy theorist Mike Lindell's MyPillow company had almost $300 million in revenue.
"The bulk of it happens as a response to some tragedy in the real world," said Megan Squire, a computer and data scientist tracking extremism with the Southern Poverty Law Center.
She said waves of debanking and deplatforming have followed violent episodes like the deadly Unite the Right white nationalist rally in Charlottesville, Va., in 2017 and a number of mass shootings explicitly motivated by hate.
