Parler Is Banning Users It Doesn't Like

Let’s see, how does the line go? “Parler needs to decide if they’re going to be a platform or a publisher, and if they’re going to start censoring speech that they don’t like, they need to be held responsible for—“ haha sorry, it’s too ridiculous to even satirize

6y agoHN ↗

Parler, the free [to agree with our] speech platform.

6y agoHN ↗

I love the fact that this thread is empty while the one about deplatforming white supremacists is chock-full of people screaming about free speech. Really makes the whole thing a bit blatant.

6y agoHN ↗

I have to say I expected it, but I had no idea of the magnitude of the effect.

6y agoHN ↗

Maybe people are holding Parler to a lower standard?

6y agoHN ↗

Whose the bigger jerk? A self described leftist, or self described conservative? I say ban em both.
