Twitter suspends alt-right figureheads
Some alt-right figures have suggested a switch to Gab, an alternative micro-blogging service that promises "Free speech for everyone". "Gab just seems like a pointless echo chamber, there are enough alt-right blogs and forums," wrote one supporter of the movement in a discussion thread about the Twitter suspensions. "The benefits of Twitter are interacting with normies, influencing discussion and getting alt-right memes trending." Several of the accounts' recent tweets had included the word "Cucks" - a term of abuse used by the alt-right to disparage opponents. USA Today identified four other high-profile alt-right figures who had also been suspended.
