@th3j35t3r @MrGoat @FreedomATX I wrote them a short but poignant "feedback" message today. The gist was:
"I am disgusted by your treatment of Counter Social and your blocking references to them.
What are you afraid of?"

@MrGoat @th3j35t3r @FreedomATX Yeah I know. But it made me feel a little better.🤷♂️ 😉
