Are there any non conservatives or non batshit crazy liberals to follow also?


I forgot to mention - since Twitter is so mainstream, there's likely not going to be any entertainment outlets/celebrities joining because they can operate 100% unassailed on Twitter.

Those of us who are vocal about our support for our President cannot say the same thing.

I expect that as Zuckerbot tightens his grip on the digital empire that DARPA gifted him in Project LifeLog, there will be a conservative analogue to that at some point, as well.

Well, they blocked Gab's app from their stores. So yeah, they'll probably do their best to kill it off.

Also, Gab was almost killed with it's registrar and host tried to SJW them to death. Gab found a friendly hosting company. Parler needs to have their ducks in a row on this. All it takes is for some a-hole in Silicon Valley to scream "hate speech".

I appreciate all the follows from folks on here. I'm doing my best to follow back everyone.

The interface is close enough to Twitter that it's easy to pick up, but there are minor differences that don't make it immune to hiccups.

They (twitter) say it's not necessary, but insist on it as a means to ensure that you're likely a real person. What they're really doing is cross-referencing their system to see if you're someone whom they've executed digitally for wrongthink.

Real phone #s are a lot harder to come by. There's a limit to Google Voice #s you can associate with a real world mobile #, so that's not an avenue, either.

ETA - It's been so long since I created my account (June 2019) that I don't recall Parler asking for that info, but I'd imagine that it's fairly innocuous.

They send you an account verification code via text. Site is real slow for me right now. Thanks for the list. I lurk here mostly and will probably do the same there, but if anyone see's @Trout13 that's me.

Parler Makes $20k Progressive Debate Challenge

quote:

The libertarian or conservative-leaning social media platform Parler is now offering $20,000 to any progressive pundit, commentator or writer willing to join Parler and engage in an open debate on the platform. The original amount for the challenge was $10,000 three weeks ago. When no one stepped forward to accept, Parler doubled down.

According to Parler’s statement, the challenge is to “produce a series of Parleys, constructive and thoughtful discussions to search for common ground on difficult issues.”

Parler Strategic Investor Jeffrey Wernick says it’s time for liberals and conservatives to have discourse on equal footing without censorship.

“Current Parler members are largely libertarians and conservatives, but honest liberals and progressives should support free speech and hate Twitter censorship, indoctrination and dehumanization too,” Wernick added. “No army of Twitter bots to shout people down. Parley. Maybe even find common ground.”

The $20,000 challenge comes on the heels of Parler’s ongoing #Twexit campaign. Following a series of conflicts between Twitter and President Donald Trump, Parler called itself the “anti-Twitter” and invited social users concerned with free speech to dump the social media giant and establish a Parler account.


#Twexit. Awesome!

Bongino has a financial interest in this and has been pushing it hard. No biggie, but Trump can never leave Twitter or they win.

No biggie to post at both places.

Well... while I agree with your sentiment, it's important to realize that for thousands, dual citizenship is not allowed as many of us have been forcibly removed from Twitter due to our communicable wrongthink.

More likely they would ban them from their respective stores so you have to actively search them out.

Never underestimate the determination of pissed-off patriots who have something to say.

I don't think DJT leaves, I think he's deplatformed as we approach our building SHTF scenario.

Only thing is I wonder if twitter wants that? Do they want conservatives isolated so they can’t “influence” anyone else before the election?


Any individual that switches to parler was never in jeopardy of switching sides. Just my opinion though

Feel free to cannibalize my follow list. I'm following back every account that follows, since you're right about UIDs not necessarily carrying over from TD.
