Most of his specific insinuations/inferences are simply wrong. Parler was not removed because some MoC said for it to be removed. It was removed because it was hosting calls for violence. Greenwald is a crank, looking for attention. He's not worth it.
- nonford150 6y agoAnd Twitter, FB, etc. was hosting the same sort of messages. We all know why Parker was removed; it’s right-leaning users (i.e. the great unwashed) are deemed unworthy of being part of the conversation. It’s not surprising Jan 6 happened; the parallels to the French Revolution are uncanny.
- jonahbenton 6y agoThis is fool talk. Jan 6 and the entire MAGA movement to a first approximation is a grift. It is precisely the opposite of the French Rev. It is the selling of cake in the form of hats and delusion. FB was allowing this messaging. Twitter not so much, T was much more aggressive at moderation. Removing FB is a completely different issue for an app store than Parler, for obvious reasons. Parler also of course was funded by sources that were in US terms problematic. Apple is going after FB in more structural ways. Google tried, but failed. FB is an issue for DoJ now.
