In light of recent events, hivetwitter has become rather active on promoting the censorship-free platform hive has to provide. Some from own enthusiasm, some for the lulz and some for a juicy little incentive.

Either ways, I haven't personally seen so many hivers actively tweet about big tech, mainstream social media or censorship, in that regards, for a very long time until recently. So why the sudden buzz?

Obviously, the fire ignited with the spontaneous ban of Donald J. Trump. Arguably, one of the most discussed and controversial person, right now, in a highly influential position.

Whether you are a democrat, republican or a foreigner to the states like myself, the ban should concern you. A lot! A single app that could completely be removed from your existence with one tap, has muted one of the most powerful people on the face of earth almost in the same "one-tap-uninstall" fashion.

No regard of his position, power or individuality. So why are you immune?

Big tech have marked this year as the year of refuting human of their fundamental right to expression. May it be justified or not, they will do as they like and your account, your information, your voice carries no value.

For years now, the likes of twitter and facebook, have had their share of disgusting and shameful scrutiny. From deliberately manipulating people through pushing selective narratives to using personal data for industrial-sized profits.
We may have gotten used to selling our data and getting brainwashed for the fair price of a few likes and an endorphin shot stimulated by a tingling notification. BUT HOW MUCH MORE?

There has to come a time where we do not have to succumb to the selfish ways of mainstream social media that holds the whip of tyrannical rule, and maybe this incident is it.

Coming to the banger: Is HIVE Republican or Democratic?
NONE

There may be many users who have their own political opinions, and they are free to do so. But hive is a decentralized platform with a humongous diversity. I'll go as far as to say that the majority of hive isn't politically related to these parties or the politics of the States.
However, Hive supports freedom of speech and is against censorship.

The entire reasoning behind #hivesolvesthis and similar hashtag movements is not to show support to the political side of things, but to stand along with the million others who must have felt vulnerable about their voices once Donald was muted. Hive is to be promoted as an immutable, censorship free alternative, and will be promoted that way. It is the way we will show the millions that there is a platform for you, and your voice.

It is a golden opportunity to turn 2021 from big tech's tyranny party to a decentralized, censorship free haven.

There is never too much advertising, especially when Hive is in 214th place among the top cryptocurrencies.

I believe the same. Nothing as bad marketing.
