Wokism, at its core, is characterized by an inherent anti-White sentiment. This ideology primarily consists of a coalition that includes non-Whites, Jews, and self-loathing Whites. Recently, there has been a shift as Jews attempt to redefine wokism, labeling it as antisemitic. This change comes as they switch sides to the “right,” realizing that their significant role in the development and propagation of wokism, dating back to its origins in the Frankfurt school, has been exposed. For the past 20 years Jews had no problem with wokism, they were among the chief promoters of it in the form of countless anti-White books, along with its pervasiveness in academic circles, news reports, TV shows and movies. Only when their woke Frankenstein turned its attention to them did it suddenly become a problem.

BREAKING: The UK Government has demanded that Gab submit to their new censorship regime under the UK Online Safety Act, threatening massive fines (18 million euros or 10% of our annual revenue) for not policing speech. We will not comply. We will not pay one cent. We will defend our UK users' right to speak freely and reject any law that compels censorship. Their letter and the response from our legal team is attached.

To be clear this image obviously isn’t aimed at our patriotic British brothers and sisters, but rather at their tyrannical government. 🙏

Proves my point and decision to ban Israeli IPs from Gab to be 100% correct. Bad actors from Israel were monitoring the site, spamming porn, and creating fake accounts to post violent threats pretending to be "nazis" which they then screenshot and include in these "reports." They then pass the reports around to the press to further defame us, and use these reports to pressure service providers and governments to go after us. Do you see how their game works?

The Overton Window is shifting so rapidly in our direction it’s almost impossible to keep up at this point. All of our ideas, talking points, critiques, and subculture itself are being normalized and mainstreamed before our eyes. I thought we were another 5-10 years away from this. Glorious.
@BasedTorba - Andrew Torba
The Regime has tried for 8 years now to take Gab offline. First I got offered large sums of money, but with strings attached: “Remove the far-right guys,” I declined. Then my family started getting threats. I held my ground. Then the smear attacks by the media accelerated. Then they flooded Gab with p*rn bots and sent the ADL and SPLC after us. Then they removed us from app stores, hosting providers, payment processors, banks and more. We did go offline briefly for 6 days, but got the site back up. Then the billionaire Mercer family launched Parler with “hate speech” rules to try to compete and take us out that way. They paid every conservative influencer to shill Parler for years. Then Amazon pulled the plug and everyone came to Gab. Then Trump’s team approached me. They wanted Trump to join Gab after J6, but there were conditions. “You have to do something about the antisemitism and anti-Israel sentiment.” I declined. At this same time Rumble changed their terms of service to ban “hate speech and antisemitism.” That same week Trump joined the platform. Then Trump launched Truth Social. It uses AI to censor “hate speech.” It flopped. Then the ultimate subversion attempt: take over Twitter and say it’s freedom speech, not freedom of reach. The right slopped it up from the trough. Now the rug is being pulled on the actual right wing and a huge purge is underway, implicit shadowbanning is back, demonetization is back, and algos are being changed. Gab remains the true home of free speech.

Jesus is the true Israel, not an apostate nation of unbelieving Jews formed in 1948. Christ’s Church has inherited the promises made to Israel. Israel was called to be a light to the nations (Isaiah 49:6). However, Israel failed in their mission multiple times. In the New Testament, this mission is taken up by Jesus (Luke 2:32), who becomes the true light to the nations. In Romans 11, Paul uses the metaphor of an olive tree. The natural branches (Jews) were broken off because of unbelief, and wild branches (Gentiles) were grafted in. Yet there’s hope that the natural branches can be grafted back in ONLY if they accept Jesus Christ—who is the root. (Revelation 22:16) The root is NOT ethnic Jews and it's not some modern nation state in the middle east, it's Christ Himself. The theological implications of viewing the Jewish people or the modern nation state of Israel as having a unique relationship with God despite rejecting Christ undermines the significance of Jesus' role in reconciling humanity to God and contradicts the entire New Testament. The core message of Christianity is centered around the belief that Jesus is the Son of God, who came to earth to offer salvation to all people through his death and resurrection. Those who call themselves Jews today do not get a special get out of hell free card for being born into a particular ethnic group and continuing to reject Christ. They don’t have some "side deal" with God. No one comes to the Father without the Son. (John 14:6) They reject the Son and therefore they do not know the Father. (John 8:19) They do not worship God, they belong to their father the devil as Jesus said in John 8:44. Paul explicitly states that not all of ethnic Israel is truly Israel (Romans 9:6). He goes on to say that it's the children of promise, not physical descent, who are Abraham's offspring. (Romans 9:8) Jesus offers further clarity on this topic in John chapter 8 where the Jews appeal to their ethnic identity in response to Him saying "we be Abraham's seed, and were never in bondage to any man." Jesus' response to them is revealing: "I speak that which I have seen with my Father: and ye do that which ye have seen with your father. If ye were Abraham's children, ye would do the works of Abraham, but now ye seek to kill me, a man that hath told you the truth, which I have heard of God: this did not Abraham. "Ye do the deeds of your father. Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it. And because I tell you the truth, ye believe me not." Jesus ends by saying "Before Abraham was, I am" and then the Jews tried to stone him. The book of Hebrews makes it crystal clear: the Old Covenant is obsolete (Hebrews 8:13). It's done. Finished. Over. The New Covenant in Christ's blood has replaced it entirely. The Church fulfills God's promise to Abraham that all nations would be blessed through him (Genesis 22:18) and his seed, who is Christ. (Galatians 3:16-18) The belief that ethnic Israel (Jews) retain a distinctive status apart from the Church misinterprets Scripture. It neglects the transformative nature of Christ's work. He did not simply enhance Israel; He fulfilled its purpose and extended it to embrace all who believe. If your pastor is preaching anything else on this subject, you're not in a church. You're in the synagogue of Satan.

🧵OPERATION CHOKEPOINT: How Gab Was Debanked in 2021 Yesterday venture capitalist Marc Andreessen highlighted Operation Chokepoint 2.0 on Joe Rogan's show. He noted how 30 tech founders were targeted and debanked by the Biden administration for purely political purposes, I was one of them. This is our story.
@BasedTorba - Andrew Torba
Operation Choke Point was an initiative launched by the United States Department of Justice in 2013, under the Obama administration. The program aimed to discourage banks and financial institutions from doing business with companies that the government deemed to be high-risk, such as payday lenders, firearms dealers, and certain types of telemarketers. The operation involved federal agencies, including the Department of Justice, the Federal Trade Commission (FTC), and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB), working with banks to identify and cut off financial services to these high-risk industries. The idea was to "choke off" the financial lifeblood of these businesses, making it difficult for them to operate.
@BasedTorba - Andrew Torba
However, critics argued that the program went too far, infringing on the rights of businesses that were not necessarily engaged in fraudulent activities. They claimed that the initiative targeted lawful industries and violated the First Amendment rights of businesses to engage in legal commerce. The operation generated controversy and faced legal challenges. In 2017, the Trump administration dismantled Operation Choke Point, with the Justice Department stating that it would no longer support the program. While the initiative had the stated goal of targeting fraudulent businesses and protecting consumers, many argued that it overstepped its authority and unfairly targeted legitimate industries.
@BasedTorba - Andrew Torba
In early 2021, within just a few weeks of Biden taking office Operation Chokepoint 2.0 was activated. http://Gab.com was one of the targets. Gab follows the law and operates a legal business in the United States. We sell hats, shirts, advertising for businesses, and a software license to our GabPRO service. We have a community that respects law and order. Yet we had half a dozen banks and other services banning us left and right.
@BasedTorba - Andrew Torba
Without a bank account you can't store and deposit cash. If you cannot store and deposit cash you cannot run payroll, pay bills, or operate a business. That's the point of Operation Chokepoint: to choke out the business so it no longer can exist.
@BasedTorba - Andrew Torba
I spent months opening new bank accounts and transferring millions of dollars to new accounts every other week. I tried big banks, credit unions, and even an explicitly "Christian" bank. They all banned us within a few weeks of opening the account. The reason was always the same "because our terms say we can do so at anytime for any reason or no reason at all." What was really happening behind the scenes is that the banks were being pressured by the federal government to do this to us. I was told, off the record, by many of them that they were being intimidated and threatened with expensive audits and regulatory pressure.
@BasedTorba - Andrew Torba
This wasn't the first time we dealt with financial deplatforming. In 2019/2020 we were wrongfully placed on the MATCH list for political reasons. We spent tens of thousands of dollars on legal fees and months of work getting off the MATCH list so that we could process credit and debit card payments again.
@BasedTorba - Andrew Torba
Thankfully we had bitcoin (free speech money) and paper checks. We taught Gab users how to buy and use bitcoin and thousands of people physically mailed us paper checks to our PO Box. That's how we survived for the better part of a year.
@BasedTorba - Andrew Torba
After months of playing whack-a-mole with banks and having millions of dollars up in the air, we finally found pro-free speech banking partners who were willing to stand up to the intimidation and keep a checking account open for us. As always, God protected and provided for us. While it wasn't easy, I'm thankful for this trial. It led to great relationships and opportunities to become even more resilient to these type of attacks. It also allowed us to stack a bunch of bitcoin and start building up Gab's bitcoin reserve treasury, which continues to produce for the business today.

@BasedTorba - Andrew Torba
He’s talking about mimetic theory and it is the single best solution to the birth rate decline. Women mimic one another. This is due to their innate appeal to social consensus. You often see this reflective in fashion and social trends (think TikTok dances, Ugg boots and Pumpkin Spice lattes every fall.) Or even in politics with the recent Kambala brat slop. The same is true with having babies. “Baby fever” is a term that exists for a reason. It’s the natural mimetic desire of women to want and have what other women around them want and have. God beautifully designed women this way for a reason and our enemies have capitalized and weaponized this memetic desire to enrich themselves and destroy our people at the same time. As per usual Satan and his children take what God has designed for good and invert it for evil. For thousands of years the natural mimetic desires of women were: a husband, a loving family, and children. Only in the last 80 years have those natural mimetic desires been usurped by fake and vapid ones like “freedom” (wage/sex slavery) and “stuff.” This of course is thanks to decades of endless propaganda and policies enacted by our enemies. The birth rate decline can be solved very easily: seize control of the media and culture from our enemies. Pump the normies with pro-natalist content. Champion parenthood and make motherhood our society’s most sacred and highest honor vocation for women. The birth rate will skyrocket overnight. Since we can’t—or won’t—do this right now the second best option is to lead by example. Baby fever is VERY real as any honest woman will tell you. If all the women in your wife’s friend group are having babies she will want a baby, but someone has to be the first to start the chain reaction. We see this constantly in Church. There are literal baby boom years. But someone must be the first. Be that first. Then keep doing it. Lead by example and create a chain reaction of mimetic desire.

You watched a regime hoax be dismantled in real time today. Their plan was to paint Crooks as a “far-right extremist” and scapegoat Gab in the process. Thanks to our quick action—and your help getting the word out—we stopped that from happening. All Glory to God.

BREAKING: The FBI is now claiming that the Trump shooter Thomas Matthew Crooks had an unspecified "social media account" in 2019/2020 (when he was 14/15 years old) that posted "anti-immigrant and anti-semitic" content. This is not consistent with Gab's understanding of the shooter's motives based on an Emergency Disclosure Request ("EDR") we received from the FBI last week for the Gab account "EpicMicrowave" which, based on the content of that EDR, the FBI appeared to think belonged to Thomas Crooks. Many, particularly regime media reporters, have doubted Gab's claims that this request existed. Normally we don't confirm the existence or content of law enforcement communications. In this instance we had to make an exception due to the overwhelming public interest in disclosure and transparency. As a courtesy to law enforcement, we are not going to post the entire request. This is the first page of that request. The story is this: the account for which data was requested was, UNEQUIVOCALLY, pro-Biden and in particular pro-Biden's immigration policy. To the best of Gab's knowledge, as of 2021, Crooks was a pro-lockdown, pro-immigration, left-wing Joe Biden supporter.

@BasedTorba - Andrew Torba
“Racism” is a word designed to demonize someone’s rational and biological preferences. Preferring to live around people like you. Preferring to avoid people who hate you. Preferring your faith over a false faith. Preferring your nation over another. These are all natural preferences for people of every race, but only one race isn’t permitted to have them. Once this spell is broken it’s game over and we are seeing the fault lines begin to form.

Why Elon Can’t #BantheADL Even if He Wanted To Over the past few days a grassroots campaign popped up on X calling for the platform to ban the ADL. The campaign, united around the hashtag #BantheADL, has been trending on the platform for days with hundreds of thousands of posts. This campaign comes after the CEO of the ADL, Jonathan Greenblatt, made a post gloating about his organization’s sheer power to control the platform that Elon Musk purchased for tens of billions of dollars last year. Although the #BantheADL campaign effectively highlighted the significant influence the ADL holds in regulating the flow of information online, it is essential to delve into the reasons why Elon Musk cannot remove the ADL from the platform or hinder their effective management of his company, even if he were inclined to do so. First we have to understand a bit of the context for how a platform like X actually works and is able to exist on the internet along with the inside baseball of how the ADL flexes its power to control massive corporations without owning a single share. X is built on the rails of multiple third-party services including, but not limited to the Google Cloud infrastructure among others. X has had a partnership with Google Cloud since 2018, and Bloomberg reports that this collaboration has incurred annual expenses ranging from $200 million to $300 million for the company. Jonathan Greenblatt has openly bragged about the ADL’s partnership with Google, YouTube, Facebook, and X, going so far as to change the algorithms of these companies to meet their demands. With one phone call to Google the ADL can cripple X. If Google pulls the plug on the cloud hosting deal massive parts of X’s critical infrastructure will be down for a long time, possibly the entire platform would be taken offline with one click. We saw this happen in 2020 with Parler when Amazon AWS pulled the plug and the platform was taken offline. They were never able to fully recover and recently shut the platform down completely after it sold to a third-party. Going after the cloud hosting providers is just the start for the ADL’s ability to utterly destroy X. Next come the app store bans. With that same phone call to Google the ADL could easily highlight the hundreds of thousands of “antisemitic” posts on the platform and point the the #BantheADL posts as their prime example. Don’t put it past them. They likely have multiple studies going on behind the scenes tracking the “rise in hate” on the platform since Elon took over and will use this to present their case. Without critical infrastructure and the app stores X would be in serious trouble, but Elon may be able to pull off a miracle and keep the platform online. Next come the advertisers. The ADL has close connections with all of the top Fortune 500 companies and will use their mafia-style power to get these companies to pull their ad dollars from X. This has already been going on since the moment Elon took over the platform. X is operating in a cash flow negative situation and reports claim that ad revenue has fallen by a dramatic 50% since Elon took over. That’s only the beginning. Next the ADL will contact the sitting members of Congress and the Biden White House. We’ll see Elon be summoned to testify in Congress about the rise in “misinformation” and “hate” on the platform since he took over. Elon is in a unique position because he’s not only running X. He’s also running several other companies including SpaceX and Tesla, both of which require him to appease the Regime and stay within their favor. The ADL can and will go after not only X, but all of Elon’s companies. It’s no coincidence that the CEO of X is having meetings with the ADL just days after the DOJ announced that they were suing SpaceX. How do I know all of this? Because I lived it–and survived it by the grace of God. The ADL has been attacking Gab and I for many years. Their smear campaigns against us successfully lobbied dozens of third-party services to deplatform us and cripple our infrastructure. Despite all of their efforts this didn’t stop us. We were able to rebuild our own servers, payment processing, and so much more in order to keep Gab online. It took many years and it wasn’t easy, but we are still standing. The ADL has also come after me personally. They pay Google to promote their smear articles about me to the top of search results. They lobbied the DOJ to investigate me after January 6th, even though I wasn’t even in attendance. Jonathan Greenblatt went on national television and called me “one of the most toxic people in public life” effectively painting a target on my back. None of this stopped me. I don’t fear the ADL. I don’t answer to the ADL. I fear and answer only to God almighty. The ADL has NO POWER over Gab which is why they hate us. It’s that simple. There is absolutely nothing they can say or do to get us to censor opinions they don’t like and it’s going to stay that way. Elon has a choice. He can continue to allow this disgusting organization to run his company by proxy without his approval or he can fight back, take a stand like Gab has, and face the consequences head on. He can continue to have his CEO take groveling phone calls and enforce the ADL’s strategy of freedom of speech but not freedom of reach or he can tell them to pound sand. If he can’t run his own business without permission from some ghoulish vampire at the ADL there’s no sense in running a business at all. For me it was an easy decision.
