Conservatives are flocking to Parler, the new social media app. Millions, in fact.

Amid claims of social media platforms stifling free speech, a new challenger called Parler is drawing attention for its anti-censorship stance.

Debates surroundings free speech and censorship have taken centre stage in recent months. In May, Twitter started adding fact-check labels to tweets from Donald Trump.

More recently, Reddit permanently removed its largest community of Trump supporters.

In this climate, Parler presents itself as a “non-biased, free speech driven” alternative to Twitter. Here’s what you should know about the US-based startup.

Parler reports more than 1.5 million users and is growing in popularity, especially as Twitter and other social media giants crackdown on misinformation and violent content. [bold](OP note: On Sunday 7/12, Parler CEO John Matze gave an interview on Breitbart's SiriusXM program and said they added around a million more users in the last 2 weeks. They are hovering around 3 million now.)[/bold]

Parler’s main selling point is its claim it embraces freedom of speech and has minimal moderation. “If you can say it on the street of New York, you can say it on Parler”, founder John Matze explains.

This branding effort capitalises on allegations competitors such as Twitter and Facebook unfairly censor content and discriminate against right-wing political speech.

While other platforms often employ fact checkers, or third-party editorial boards, Parler claims to moderate content based on American Federal Communications Commission guidelines and Supreme Court rulings.

So if someone shared demonstrably false information on Parler, Matze said it would be up to other users to fact-check them “organically”.

It sounds good in theory that the conservatives want a place where they can just shout at the moon about their white grievance, but I don't believe they get much real satisfaction in that and ultimately it's not sustainable.

by Anonymousreply 5July 14, 2020 4:07 PM

It's a double-edged sword, I reckon. On the one hand, it's good that falsehoods on mainstream soc med will peter out. On the other, polarization and anti-vax, QAnon, flat earth, and all other preposterous thoughts will fester. (None of them will "organically" fact-check the sophistry the consume, if all they can point to as reference are also sham.) The menace, unfortunately, will outweigh the relief. God help us.

Lots of Trumpers planning a mass exodus to Parler now. However, check out the terms of service:

14: “You agree to defend and indemnify Parler ... from and against any and all claims, actions, damages, obligations, losses, liabilities, costs or debt, and expenses (including but not limited to all attorneys fees) arising from or relating to your access to and use of the Services. Parler will have the right to conduct its own defense, at your expense, in any action or proceeding covered by this indemnity."

Here's why we win with Parler

Twitter has a tiny user base compared to other apps and much of it is believed to be inflated by people with multiple accounts (not even maliciously--you may have a personal account, one for your business and one for a benign hobby like stamp collecting)

But... almost all journalists are on Twitter and use it to promote their stories.

As such, they are far more aware of "what is being said on Twitter" and likely to be influenced by it and report on it and regard it as an accurate reflection of public opinion.

It is not.

Twitter amplifies the most outrageous comments and many people have figured out how to game that.

Similarly, politicos and journos who are not prone to outrageous comments begin to make them as a way of being seen

Thus Twitter has an undue influence on the media, left, right and center.

If the Trumpist freaks are all on Parler no one in the mainstream media will see them and their nonsense will not be spread quite so easily.

"Spread" meaning what happens on DL a lot, where people respond to trolling and thus amplify the trolls.

PS: R60 is trolling you, trying to make it seem like Parler is happening.

Like most people, I have FB connections with a lot of people from my past that I don't necessarily interact with regularly. But I do see their posts in my feed. And since I grew up in a fairly conservative area, it has been enjoyable to watch the meltdown of people I know from high school.

They've been clear about their business model since day one, two years ago, which is matching up alt-right "influencers" with advertisers and then taking a cut. It started out just that way, with the likes of Laura Loomer and Alex Jones who were getting banned by other platforms. It wasn't until they got a big bump from Saudi accounts that it expanded into more of a free-for-all Twitter.

And now it's taking off with the Deplorable hoi polloi who, conditioned by years of FB, have become so desensitized to idea of privacy that they're willing to hand over their Social Security number and a scan of their drivers license — people using GrandPads, whose understanding of social media is just retweeting memes and chatting away with Ginny from church and Paula Rae from knitting class.

Violence is social justice when deplorables are the target of it. They deserve it. Anyone who defends so much as their existence deserves violence as well for enabling them.

The poor Secret Service is going to have to go on there night and day. And contrary to what the owners of the site say, Parler isn’t immune to all laws. If people are issuing death threats to Biden over there, they’re getting a visit from the Secret Service no matter what site it is.

About women on that site, Deplorable women are stupid as rocks. They may sign up but they won’t get to stay. Incredibly misogynistic men who are not being censored as they are on every other site, will be telling women they’re going to their house and raping them and their kids. The site says they’re not going to censor anyone.

The only reason Twitter or Reddit are even useable is the violent loons get censored. Just wait until every woman-hating incel in America and Russia runs them off the site. They’ll be talking about disemboweling them with can openers by the third week. And their kids. They’ll make it impossible for those Nazi fraus to stay there. They’ll doxx them and scare the living shit out of them. It’s going to turn into the dark web.

Just because the owners want it to be a fascist white supremacist site doesn’t mean those are the only people that will use it. When you say there’s no censorship, it’s going to be full of porn, child porn, snuff film pictures, decomposing body closeups, you name it. Every slavering crazy person is going to be on there in no time, because they can’t publish that anywhere else. Especially commercial porn and child porn. The FBI will be on there from the first day.

Watch the cookie baking fraus take one look and run for the hills. Especially when they’re trying to brainwash little Johnny to love Hitler, and he sees a picture of a woman fucking a horse. That’s what no censorship really means.

There’s a reason Twitter and other sites censor. These dummies are about to find out what it is.

I disagree. These female Deplorables want to be debased like gay Trumpers want to be called faggots, but "good" ones because they are faggots for Trump. These women are as angry (see, Karens) and frustrated as men. The sad truth is that these men and women have one common ground: They hate Liberals and minority groups and that's how they keep a bond between them. The Deplorable women will attack Liberal women even more vicious than the men ever can and the men will be like "damn, girl! Tell us how you really feel!".

by Anonymousreply 93November 9, 2020 4:15 PM

R93, a lot of Deplorable women call themselves Christians, pro-life, and say they’re the real moral people and the real Americans, while liberals are not. They’re holier than thou.

Deplorable men are coming from a different point of view. They think men should run the world, wives should be beaten and debased if they try to speak up or have any autonomy, and kids should be beaten until they shut up. They are violent with a mean streak a mile wide. The women support this by saying the Bible wants it that way. So do the men. I’ve seen them on right wing sites. Sometimes people tell them to stop promoting wife beating. Sometimes they agree with them. But even those sites have censorship.

In reality, when you say there’s no censorship, commercial interests are going to get in there with the speed of light. Links directing men to porn websites (porn is a huge percentage of the internet), or links directing people to other websites that can’t advertise everywhere because of their content, like extreme hate sites. The owners will probably take ads from anybody they can. Reputable advertisers like food companies aren’t going to want to advertise on the “why I love Hitler” sub thread. Survivalist companies probably will, but their main claim to fame is going to be, we’ll take any advertising no matter how dark. A lot of that is not anything you’d want anywhere near kids. Or women that don’t like explicit porn ads.

Then you’re going to have Zodiac killer type guys that want to show pictures of their latest handiwork. Guys like that have posted murder photos and suicide videos and been removed as quickly as possible. But there’s no censorship here.

There’s a lot of Trump subreddits on Reddit that were closed because of violent hate speech. They were echo chambers that instantly banned anyone that didn’t think Trump was perfect, including Republicans. Those people will all end up over there. If I’m not mistaken, some of those people got in trouble with the law, so they must have been really extreme.

Reddit has had a lot of subreddits gradually migrate away from the original purpose, and that’s probably going to happen here. Sometimes liberals will go in and change the reason for the thread by spamming it. But there won’t be liberals here. So if the thread meaning gets changed, it will go from porn -> violent porn -> violent wife beating, with pictures of bruised and tied up wives being “taught a lesson,” etc. Deplorables are Deplorables for a reason. There aren’t going to be crocheting groups on there.

There’s A LOT of pro-wife-beating backed up with Bible quotes on some right wing sites. And a lot of it, women are taught to agree with by their Fundie pastors. They’re told if they’re beaten they deserve it, or at least God wants them to suffer so they can go to heaven and be rewarded in heaven. And they are literally taught if they get a divorce they’re going to hell, and they can only go to heaven if they serve their husband no matter what, even if he rapes their kids. I’ve literally seen this on Fundie sites. They’re supposed to forgive their husband for raping their kids, even if he goes to prison for raping them, they’re supposed to bring them right back in the house to rape the kids some more. That’s why there’s so much child molestation in fundie communities.

In Fundie culture, men and women are segregated online. Even on integrated sites like survivalist sites, the men have a section and the women have a section. The women are all cooking and childcare, the men are all violence, riots and revolution.

This is going to get really gross. Deplorable culture is violent culture.

I just asked one of my friendlier conservative friends (who was sharing his Parler handle with his right wing buds on FB) if he had to give his SSN to sign up and he said no. I didn't want to grill with a follow up about uploading his ID. Several women were sharing their handles too. Mostly 60yo former cheerleaders who never left our dinky farming town.

by Anonymousreply 114November 11, 2020 10:12 PM

Handle sharing by multiple posters? Isn't that grounds for Parler to sue them and charge them for lawyers fees and costs because they are effectively defrauding Parler? Someone needs to notify Dan Bongo and his comrades in grifting that he's being grifted himself. So many peas in the pod.

by Anonymousreply 115November 11, 2020 10:26 PM

I was mistaken above: the SSN is for people who are involved in sponsorships or revenue sharing. It’s a selfie and a scan of a driver’s license/photo ID to unlock direct messaging and other features.

I’ve seen a few articles about it today, r120.

[quote]The platform also has some deep-pocketed investors. Hedge-fund investor Robert Mercer and his daughter Rebekah are among the company’s financial backers, according to people familiar with the matter. The Mercers have previously financed a number of conservative causes.

[quote]After The Wall Street Journal reported on the Mercers’ ties with Parler, Chief Executive John Matze confirmed that Rebekah Mercer was the lead investor in the company at its outset and said that her backing was dependent on the platform allowing users to control what they see. Mr. Mercer couldn't immediately be reached for comment.

The irony of the scorn from DLers is delicious. Parler is basically DL for deplorable. The misinformation, misleading headlines, the echo chamber effect - welcome to DL, bitches. There is definitely gems among the trash in DL as I expect there to be on Parler. You just have to be smart enough to sort them out on your own. We do not want to overly censor. That's the worst.
