I like it, it’s missing something though.
A lump of metal
Why rage against the machine?
It does not hear you


Better?

Not if it is open source. Is it not open source?
Either it is or it isn't.
The people who built open source disagree with you.

You do not get to decide what is what when the people who make what is what disagree with you.

You tell the people who wrote these programs they are wrong; the simple fact is, it is you who is wrong.

Have you ever made anything? The people telling you that Trump is a thief, have. Trump, and you, haven't. You have no right to speak.

No.

No season word, no subtlety. It's a senryu, and a bad one.

You are full of crap.
Open source is free to use, modify and distribute.

But there are usually caveats...Like
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_source#Open-source_license
However, open-source licenses may have some restrictions, particularly regarding the expression of respect to the origin of software, such as a requirement to preserve the name of the authors and a copyright statement within the code, or a requirement to redistribute the licensed software only under the same license

The new social network without administration biased BS.

Free Speech For All.

Put your best dress on Suzianne!

I'm taking you to the Ball 😘
Unbiased, giving a voice to all -- hogwash. Trump's proposed platform will be nothing but a Donald Trump congratulation forum. Moreover, the ToS gives Donald Trump the right to sue anyone who uses the platform to criticize Donald Trump.

The only person’s right to free speech which this platform will protect is that of Donald Trump. It’s his revenge for having been bumped off of Twitter and Facebook.

So what?
If they didn't intend for it to be used they wouldn't have made it open source.
Linux Operating Systems are open source. I didn't pay anything for my linux. It came with Mozilla Firefox browser, another open source freebie.
