I am literally trapped in my house, so: time to install & review Parler. What is the free speech app like? 🧵
To get an account, you need to agree to their TOS. It is a PDF written in LaTeX. Did they...did they hire a math PhD student to write their TOS?
The free speech app will take down content that doesn't fit in the community guidelines. There are several pages in the community guidelines document specifying what kind of content is not allowed and will be removed.
Most of the content is from The Epoch Times and Breitbart. Commenters really like Trump, are concerned about conspiracies, think COVID is a hoax, and do not like BLM protests.
I see lots and lots of anti-BLM content but, to my surprise, no racial slurs. An optimist would say: people are being civil. A pessimist would say: they are taking down comments with slurs (as per their community guidelines).
Ah. I found some anti-semitic content that I'm not comfortable posting screenshots of. However, I did have to look for it; it isn't trending or in the comments on the recommended posts.
