Parler is Bill Mitchell and a handful of other crackpot right wing "thought leaders" chatting with a million Russian bots and that guy that made a meth kitchen in the storage shed behind the New Hope Mission Evangelical Tabernacle.
"Follow me on Parler!"

Turning and turning in the widening gyre
The falcon cannot hear the falconer;
Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold;
Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere
The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
The best lack all conviction, while the worst
Are full of passionate intensity.
Surely some revelation is at hand;
Surely the Second Coming is at hand.
The Second Coming! Hardly are those words out
When a vast image out of Spiritus Mundi
Troubles my sight: somewhere in sands of the desert
A shape with lion body and the head of a man,
A gaze blank and pitiless as the sun,
Is moving its slow thighs, while all about it
The thing is, so many Republicans literally do believe that the concept of democracy is dead. I know a few like this myself. They are completely on board with fascism, though they don't call it by that name.
What were witnessing is the last, dying throes of the old White Guard.
"Make America Great Again" was always code for "let's go back to the old days when a handful of rich white men ran everything and made life easier for the rest of us white men."
All MAGA ever really wanted was a return to white supremacy.
MAGA was a sad but predictable racist backlash against the first Black president. It's no coincidence that Trump, the standard-bearer for Birtherism, became the head of the GOP. These seeds were planted in the Southern Strategy and now they've produced their dark, putrid fruit.
