Some of the screenshots seem objectionable, e.g. the one that wanted to burn down Pelosi's house while she was still inside, others seem like opinions, e.g. the one saying the protester shot by police was murdered, but none seem particularly bad, where "particularly bad" means "worse than content I'd find on Twitter".
Seems inconsistent to me to ban Parler and not Twitter. Also seems undesirable for a phone manufacturer to tell me what software I should or shouldn't use.
- MattGaiser 6y agoTwitter moderates. Parler is being required to do the same.
- bebopcowboy 6y agoTwitter only moderates if you have a certain political affiliation. Blue checkmarks made threats and organized violence directly on the platform all summer and Twitter didn’t bat an eye.

- burnthrow 6y ago> > Many of Us will return ... carrying Our weapons. ... We will come in numbers that no standing army or police agency can match. However, the police are NOT our enemy, unless they choose to be! This is so embarrassing, you'd think people so hard right would remember the 2003 invasion of Iraq. Technology lols at their "numbers."
- ALittleLight 6y agoI don't think Trump supporters support the invasion of Iraq. Trump called it a disaster while running, for example.
- FireBeyond 6y agoYou can call its implementation a disaster while still agreeing with it. Trump has repeatedly talked about how we just need to go in there and take the oil", and anecdotally or otherwise, you're saying that support for military actions is lower among Trump supporters than liberals? That's going to be a challenge to reconcile or confirm - it doesn't really square.
- bebopcowboy 6y agoThese are basic calls for violence that twitter checkmarks get away with daily. Twitter doesn’t care if it’s directed at the people that they want dead.
- alkonaut 6y agoIt’s not the content that’s the issue here. It’s whether Apple believes they are actually enforcing their ToS with moderation. Currently they don’t. The problem is that even if Parler wanted to moderate (I doubt it - they’d lose users) there is no way they could afford it unless they invent something very cost efficient and don’t rely on manual review.
