Andrew Torba - Gab.ai founder


"You'll find plenty of offensive and politically incorrect speech on Gab. To suggest otherwise is nonsense. Offensive and politically incorrect speech is part and parcel of free expression. 

Criticize, mock, and shun any race, religion, sexuality, gender, and creed you want. That's part of free speech. Comedy would not exist without this. I love comedy. I love being offended and being able to laugh at myself and my own beliefs from time to time. I love being able to laugh at others in the company of others. 
When you cross into making threats, promoting violence, doxxing, etc you are no longer in the free speech territory and you should expect us to take action. 

I have zero sympathy for people who continually break our guidelines--especially around threats and doxxing which we have zero tolerance for. 

I have zero sympathy for people who have broken our guidelines in the past, been warned, and continued to break the guidelines. 

I have zero sympathy for people who cost us 6 weeks worth of engineering time and nearly $100,000 in contract fees with the Microsoft Azure fiasco this summer. 

Those who break our guidelines are a cancer on this community and I'll be damned if I let that cancer spread."  -- Andrew Torba, https://gab.ai/a

Andrew's additional tips:

Tips for new Gabbers:
1. Engage with others if you want to be engaged with.
2. Join groups to find people who share your interests. 
3. Speak freely. No need to self-censor yourself anymore. 
4. Mute/block people you don’t want to associate with. We aren’t your babysitter.
