    Considering your corner of the web doesn’t even know what parlor is, I’d seek out better corners. I know the situation first hand and it doesn’t make sense that people are leaving, something they are banned from... that’s being kicked off, not posting rants about why you left.

    ‘Why can’t Steve Bannon promote killing people, while leftist keep demanding tax increases on the rich? How is that fair?’... is not a legitimate argument...

    Has to do more with how they express their views than the views themselves. Well cept for the racist/bigotry stuff.

    Just makes sense to me that if you join a site to follow specific people and those people get banned that you would become fed up and leave the platform. I admit I only have a vague understanding but Twitter is close to reddit in terms of echo chambers going off what I do know.

    I vaguely recall some news story about it leading up the election doesn't twitter even try to soft censor the president?

    This makes more sense to me. I admit I like my internet more rough and tumble then most.

    Then maybe they should stop breaking the rules and getting banned?

    They have never done so. They've slapped warning labels on his blatant lies and dangerous misinformation, nothing more.

    If you don’t understand it, while I explain to you what happened... Why do you think you know better? How do you claim ignorance and expertise at the same time?

    One doesn't need a doctorate to understand simple correlation.

    Yes, but you do need to know something, while you claiming you don’t. There is a wide gap between nothing and doctor. You said you don’t know much, I explained. You have your own theory, based on... ignorance? You think you need a doctorate? lol

    Here is what I know. It's a platform the actively soft censors the president and has had a few headlines about them banning conservative groups. I do agree with orange Joe's take on it

    It’s not... It most recently banned Bannon for urging an uprising and putting people’s heads on pikes. That’s a ban everywhere... if you want to look at censorship, look at Trump refusing to sign the defense budget, if social media isn’t held liable for their user’s post.

    Well it isn't a ban everywhere but I get your point and it's why I agreed with orange joe..

    If the most popular speakers for the right are the fire brands and they are driven off it males sense that people who want to listen to them would complain of censorship then leave.

    Why do conservative fire brands want to kill people, while liberal ones don’t? Why is the problem them being banned and not the culture of violence these people spread?

    And it's bad that Twitter is tagging his lies and misinformation...why, exactly? I mean, sure folks can complain Twitter doesn't hit every instance of this and that their policy enforcement is inconsistent as fuck, but that has nothing to do with them rightly flagging misinformation.

    Speaking of Parler, linking a secondary source since the original is WashPo and paywalled for some.

    Sounds like the absolute lack of moderation and very "wild-west" mentality of the platform is making it a prime target for porn.

    On a side note, thanks to not leaving the house and wearing a mask when I do, I have similar facial hair to Les here... I would never do something so ridiculous if my face wasn’t covered... trying out a lot of new facial hair stiles... lol

    I mean the left has their own crazies calling for race based violence as well... you just overlook the crazies of your own political beliefs.

    No, I am not complaining when they get banned or see them starting their own social media. Why do you have a problem with conservatives being banned for violence, but not leftists?
