That's a shame, I'm somewhat of a free speech absolutist, barring calls for violence and other obvious illegal speech.
Looking into Parlers record on moderation, they don't seem to live up to their own values, removing content that doesn't violate their values, as well as failing to remove content that does.
- newacct583 6y agoKinda. I mean... look, they're just a partisan site. There's nothing new about that, their hook was that they looked like twitter and weren't a vbulletin or whatever. It wasn't supposed to be like this. If it was just a bunch of right wingers hanging out and complaining, akin to the left-wingers you find on /r/politics or whatever, then no one would care. But right wing grievance shifted over the Trump years into explicitly violent and insurrectionist rhetoric and imagery. And as of Wednesday that's no longer a theoretical threat.
- danaliv 6y agoWait, what? You’d like to abolish free speech? Or is this an autocorrect for “absolutist?”
- WatchDog 6y agoAh, a typo yes.
