Good points but I'd go a bit farther and say that the same companies they are trying to remove influence from are the same companies they [parler] are becoming

Good points but I'd go a bit farther and say that the same companies they are trying to remove influence from are the same companies they [parler] are becoming or will become.
The idea that parler or gab is somehow "freer" or less censored than any other site seems untrue. They are more tolerant of a certain political identity and less tolerant of another one.
It's just replacing their boogiemen with one of their own design.
- bazooka_penguin 6y agoSomewhat agree. These are ultimately politically reactionary platforms. Not making a value judgment, but they're clearly geared at winning over conservatives to their platforms and are intended to be platforms for right wingers. That may mean tolerating everyone else while they're growing and trying to gain clout but I can see that changing quickly once they have power.
