Inside Gab: The New Twitter Alternative Championed By The Alt-Right
From published source:
The purge is happening. At least according to the universe of alt-right users on social media: Many of them claim that in recent days their Twitter accounts have been suspended and that their posts on Facebook are not being promoted or shared like they used to. It's all part of a crackdown on "fake news" in the wake of reports that misleading reports shared on Facebook and Twitter helped influence the election. To many, these efforts are an overdue attempt to maintain online civility. But to others it's blatant censorship................
Gab is the brainchild of Andrew Torba, an adtech startup founder who now lives in Austin after a stint in Silicon Valley.
............Gab's logo is a green frog, which looks a hell of a lot like "Pepe," a meme that became the symbol of the alt-right movement.
