Parler wants liberals to join!




Trump fans are flocking to the social media app Parler — its CEO is begging liberals to join them

'Matze, a computer scientist who founded the company in 2018, is grateful for the growth even if all the new verifications are creating a lot of extra work for his 30-person team.

But Matze doesn’t want the app to be just an echo chamber for conservative voices.


Personally, he says he doesn’t like either political party and he wants to see more healthy debate. He’s so intent on getting some liberals onto the platform that he’s offering a $20,000 “progressive bounty” for an openly liberal pundit with 50,000 followers on Twitter or Facebook to start a Parler account.

The company will judge the best one, based on engagement with the community, and pay that person the reward. Matze said there’s been such little response that he increased the original proposed payment from $10,000 to $20,000.'

I am under the impression that conservatives thought that Parler was a FREE SPEECH zone for THEM but NOT for anyone else.....

i think many of them are not going to be happy with liberals exercising the same freedom of speech.
lol.

Nowhere has anyone on the right called for the left to be silenced. Over and over again the right is removed from public venues whenever and wherever possible. They have even been silencing those on the left that may have had a right leaning view at one time or another.

Funny that you are trying to blame the right for what the left has been violently doing for years now, and rather pathetic.

I'm a libertarian. I was under the impression that this was Parler's policy regarding free speech:


"Parler is an unbiased social media focused on real user experiences and engagement. Our content is moderated based off the FCC and the Supreme court of the United States which enables free expression without violence and a lack of censorship. Parler never shares your personal data."
 
Which they have at Twitter. I see every David French, Seth Mandel, James Woods, Ben Shapiro, Erick Erickson tweet I want. Wingnuts are just pissed because they aren't in an echo chamber on Twitter.


Actor James Woods has been locked out of his Twitter account


Investigative journalist Laura Loomer was permanently banned from Twitter in November after criticizing Ilhan Omar, a Muslim who had just been elected to Congress as a Democrat from Minnesota. Loomer called Omar "anti Jewish" and said she is a member of a religion in which "homosexuals are oppressed" and "women are abused" and "forced to wear the hijab."

James O'Keefe banned from Twitter indefinitely

This weekend I got “shadowbanned” on Twitter. It lasted until my followers noticed and protested. Shadowbanning prevents my followers from seeing my tweets and replies, but in a way that is not obvious until you do some digging.

Why did I get shadowbanned?

Beats me.

But it was probably because I asked people to tweet me examples of Clinton supporters being violent against peaceful Trump supporters in public. I got a lot of them. It was chilling.
 



Parler is big about not censoring people based on their political opinions.

The ban on porn is because they are going by the same rules as broadcast TV. I I don't have a problem with that. If I want porn, I'll go to a porn website.

The ban on posting rumors is probably so they don't get sued for defamation. I just signed up for an account there, and I'm not worried about getting sued, because I always tell the truth, and I always cite sources to verify my claims whenever I criticize someone.

I've been blogging for a decade. One time, a college professor told me that she called the police on me for "harassment." That was over six years ago, and I still haven't been arrested. The reason I wasn't arrested is because everything that I said about her was true, and I cited links to verify my claims. You can read about it at these two links:

Today, I opened an account at parler.com so that I can post public comments for all to see, and avoid the censorship levied by sites like Facebook, Twitter, and others. Most all that I write would be banned from these platforms, plus I have no use for such sites. I think parler.com will allow for comments and response without restriction so long as sane guidelines are followed.


I added a link in my blog roll to my Parler account, so any can easily go there to view or respond to my comments.


The insanity and tyranny are continuing to escalate, and little time is left to stop this attack on our freedom. Beware this Covid 2nd phase rollout, as it will turn into totalitarian rule, with mandatory vaccination of poison to follow, while the dangerous criminal behavior by those in the BLM and Antifa movements allowed by the state will continue.

No... That was YOUR ERROR... Everyone else knew the difference at Parler was LACK of political policing of speech... Conservatives, libertarians just want a FAIR and TRANSPARENT playing field... Not afraid of really free speech or debate at all...

Much like USMB... :biggrin:

You must be joking. This place will curtail free speech and without a guilty conscience.
 



Streisand effect

The Streisand effect is a social phenomenon that occurs when an attempt to hide, remove, or censor information has the unintended consequence of further publicizing that information, often via the Internet. It is named after American entertainer Barbra Streisand, whose attempt to suppress photographs of her residence in Malibu, California, inadvertently drew further attention to it in 2003.

and they never see they IRONY

they accuse liberals of silencing them while they work hard to silence liberals...

So who's trying to silence liberals? We love when liberals speak. When liberals talk, we get more people to join the conservative movement. When liberals talk at colleges, you don't see Republicans protesting, making threats to the colleges or local police, saying they are considering dropping out.

Go ahead! Talk. Speak loud and clear. We want everybody in the country, and perhaps world to hear what liberalism is all about. We want you to tell everybody how disarming law abiding citizens will stop criminals using guns. We want to hear about how we only have 12 years to live. We want to hear how you support getting rid of, or weakening police departments. Tell everybody about the elimination of ICE on your platform. Tell them about free college, and the elimination of fracking which is responsible for our very reasonably priced fuel these past several years. Tell them about everything on your agenda.

I hope they are very successful. This is the way it's supposed to work. When you are disappointed in a product or service, you simply create your own with the flaws worked out. If you don't have those resources, you find such a product or service that better suits your liking.

I never supported government getting involved with telling Twitter or Facebook how to operate, who they allow to speak, and who they don't. IMO, it's their service, and they can run it any way they desire. If they won't let you speak, find a service like Parler and speak there.

We could be witnessing the next huge social media company. As people get disgusted with their current sources, they flock over to places like Parler. Parler gets bigger, and FB and Twitter get smaller. Eventually they could be a thing of the past like AOL or Prodigy which used to be huge at the beginning of the internet days.

No doubt!

I'm sure that is true.

This board right here is the closest I have seen for mutual debate. I applaud the Moderators (who are mostly liberals, and Coyote is a fanatic) for letting everybody have at it. The anonymity has the vice of promoting rudeness, but it has the virtue of promoting candor. (For example, I can say this BLM business, particularly in Seattle and other major cities, is out of control and run by Bolshevik Assholes---without fear of losing my job or being physically attacked.)

The problem is that the operators of this board cannot control who posts and they shouldn't. But, they deserve better than they get. I have almost never seen a Liberal post anything that doesn't sound like it came from the grade school playground or, at best, a Marxist professor's indoctrination class. And, of course, these whacked-out blind partisans think the same of me.

It hasn't been so bad since early 1860.

This time, it is the Rotting Cities against the Heartland which feeds the Rotting Cities and keeps them from freezing to death---and they seem to hold us in outright contempt for doing so. Don't know how it will turn out, but there will be a fight before Bolsheviks are allowed to take over.

I forgot how I found this forum. Years ago I got disgusted with Topix because of the moderators over there. If you posted anything but compliments of the Democrat party, it was removed. They never chimed in, never told you why your post was removed, and complaints were never responded to. As I understand it, my sentiments were not my own. Topix closed up a couple of years ago.

Most of the moderators here are okay, and yes, that includes you Coyote. It's civil discourse that one can enjoy. After all, I can't debate conservatives on many issues. The place wouldn't' be as much fun without the leftists.
