Gab Is Melting Down

For those who do not know, Gab is more or less the libertarian/right-wing/racist and antisemitic version of twitter. Am I being mean? Nope. It turns out the man who just shot up a synagogue this weekend was a user a Gab and posted regularly. 

Most Gab users are those who got kicked off of twitter for being racist. This guy seemed to be no exception. So naturally, many places including PayPal, GoDaddy, and much more cut all ties with Gab. Because of that the platform is more or less completely dead. The creator did not like. 

Andrew Torba, AKA Mr. Gab, is not pleased with how people have been covering and is having a complete meltdown on twitter. 

This includes saying Yahoo wants him dead for reporting on him and informing us that striking him down will just bring him back more powerful. The best of these is easily when he posted a Bible quote about killing brown Jews while trying to defend himself from claims of being racist and antisemitic. But all of this leads to one question: Where will the Gab man go when he's banned from twitter for being racist? I guess we'll never know.
