TLDR: anon gripes and grumbles about why the board has not reported Dr. Tenpenny's reinstatement on TS as widely as her being 'banned'. Also, TS mission? Q3906?
<gripe>
There were four posts two days ago about how Dr. Sherri Tenpenny was "kicked off" and "banned" from Truth Social.
One of the posts touted an anti-trump tirade by a Mr. Jeff Dornik, who was spouting how Trump was sucking up to Big Tech, to the Swamp, and 'showing his true colors'.
I'll admit: that nego anti-Trump stuff gets my goat (my poor goat).
But OK, it was certainly newsworthy and worth reporting, but why no updates, pedes? Surely the change in the situation are just as newsworthy?
It's worth posting that the 'banning' happened, it irks me that there are anons so ready to bury DJT and Truth Social on the basis of a report like that. Especially when the situation unfolds and indicates something other than a 'censorship'-style banning.
After all, Truth Social is not attempting to be a chan or something like that. It's attempting to establish itself as a viable, mainstream forum with different standards and leanings than the established Darpa gang of Ytub, Guggle, Faesbuk and Twiffer, etc.
That's not going to be an easy task by any means, and mistakes will be made and improvements will be required along the way. But it's likes some folks are just hanging in the wings so they can dump all over DJT or Nunes or TS.
Now, this anon isn't able to access TS directly, so I only get TS information second hand. But, by what I've read (and surely others can confirm) Tenpenny's account has been reinstated on TS and she has also posted new content 'post-ban'.
And yet, this fiercely pro-Trump world anon is wondering why pedes who raised the alarm about Tenpenny being "banned" "kicked off" haven't provided updates that actually clarify the situation. In as much as (at least) the ban wasn't a ban, that the being kicked off has been reversed.
Even if we do not know the details of how and why this all happened (both the shutdown and the reinstatement), surely the fact that she has been restored is just as noteworthy (if not more).

Whew. Got that out of mah system. I can go back to tending my goats.
Any of you TS pedes care to update on any developments you hear, will be so glad to hear about them...
PS. Why was TS established? What is its mission? Some pedes think its specifically to counteract the censorship sphere. Some pedes thinks its purely to win back the house and the senate in the US? Others emphasize its to restore the 'bullhorn' back to the people (thanks Dave@x22).
Personally, I think the real mission of TS is multilayered. And, it will take time. Either way, when things happen, twists occur and/or mistakes are made, DJT and Nunes (and Nunes' TS team) have earned the right to the benefit of the doubt. IMO.
The Great Awakening ('Freedom of Thought), was designed and created not only as a backchannel to the public (away from the longstanding emindf control of the corrupt & heavily biased media) to endure future events through transparency and regeneration of individual thought (breaking the chains of group-think), but, more importantly, aid in the construction of a vehicle (a ship) that provides the scattered (free thinkers) with a starter new social-networking platform which allows for freedom of thought, expression, and patriotism or national pride (the feeling of love, devotion and sense of attachment to a homeland and alliance with other citizens who share the same sentiment).
Here, here, buddy.
What gets MY goat, in addition to those who seem to WANT to throw the baby out with the bathwater when something doesn't work on TS, is that many people don't seem to realize that TS is basically STILL in beta (in terms of development). Sure, it's been opened up to everyone BUT THAT DOESN'T MEAN that EVERY algorithm, kink and glitch has been worked out.
TS has only been in development for a year or maybe two(?) with a relatively small staff and has only recently come out of a relatively short testing period with a limited number of users. As such, it CAN'T be compared to, or expected to perform as "flawlessly" as, Twatter, Fakebook, Instagerm and the other "major" platforms that 1) have been around for YEARS, 2) were dark-money-/government- built and/or funded, 3) have large, diverse staffs that can be activated to more-quickly resolve issues and 4) have well-established algorithms (that THEY also continue to tweak).
So, PLEASE, everybody, cut TS some slack. Give it another year to allow it to get things figured out. IMHO, TS IS headed in the right direction but it and its users need to go through some necessary growing pains in order for it to get to where it needs to be. The world DESPERATELY needs what TS can provide.
where? Where?
Hear, hear!
Well articulated comment!
I hate to be the repeating loop but no it hasn't. It's limited to those who have access to a US phone number.
A mainstream forum is always going to censor, in order to remain "viable". How do you not know this?
Twatter made "mistakes", too. But ultimately, "fact checked" the truth into oblivion. Reinstating a banned account is kind of like apologizing to your gf after calling her fat. You said it. It's out there. It can never be "unsaid".
The real mission of TS, btw, is to make 45 appear as God. Nothing else matters.
NOW you can get back to your goats.
