"Right now, Parler is hosting a very one-sided conversation. It is almost entirely made up of Republican leaders, officials, thinkers and publications." 2/
“There are going to be no fact checkers. You're not going to be told what to think and what to say. A police officer isn't going to arrest you if you say the wrong opinion,” says John Matze, 27. “I think that's all people want. That's what they like.” 3/
"He found himself leaning a lot toward the conservative economist Thomas Sowell ('very logical'), and he also digs the classic libertarian lodestar Ayn Rand ('very interesting'). Matze describes himself as an arguer." 4/
"When asked if there ever might be an instance when the N-word would be appropriate, Matze has this answer: 'It depends on the context. If they just said that word alone, I don't think we would touch it.' He thinks a couple minutes longer, then restates his opinion." 5/
On second try: “If somebody came on there and said the N-word to somebody, and they got very upset as a result of that, then it would get taken down.” 6/
