- scarface74 4y agoHow is Twitter a de facto monopoly? They have a monopoly on what exactly - communication forums on the Internet? Why is it that conservatives are unable to create an alternative?
- starik36 4y agoThey have a monopoly on political discourse. Why isn’t there an alternative? Network effect.
- scarface74 4y agoSo there is no other way that people can talk about politics without going on Twitter? If Twitter is a monopoly and doing is badly as they are financially. They must be doing something wrong. I’m sure if Fox News or a billionaire ex-president wanted to start a social media platform he could. He has plenty of people coming to his rallies. He couldn’t get enough of his 75 million voters to come to Truth Social to make it successful.
