I know many people who are going over. and while yes some it does have to do with the election, the main issue is Facebook and Twitters continued censorship of conservative view points. They do not treat political points of view on the right the same as they do on the left. Every time a post was made that was trump related regarding election results, FB put up a Politifact "Fact Check" and when the information about Hunter and Joe Biden started emerging, Facebook was quick to either remove them or put up a "Fact Check" that discounted what was actually being reported by News Sources that weren't necessarily conservative in nature.Been seeing a lot of traffic on FB today among many of my friends encouraging a mass exodus to a new social media site called "Parler". From what I can infer... they are saying free speech won't be stifled over there and you can speak your mind without fear of censorship. Anybody know much about "Parler"? I can say all the many people who are going there to establish accounts are friends who are very upset with the results of the election. Anyone here on "Parler" and can fill me in on what's the allure?
Maybe this should be in the Banter thread, but I posted it here because it seems to have political overtones
I think the straw that broke the camels back is that many republicans and Trump supporters believe that the election is being stolen by those on the left. Whether it is true or not is a different story, But a group was created called stop the steal and in a 24 hour period had over 150k people on it and it had almost a 1 million requests that they admins where going through. Facebook shut that group down and called a violence extremist hate group. Facebook did this not once but three time. So while the facts of the case of the democrats stealing the election may or may not be true, Facebook didn't allow for a dissenting opinion. Facebook and twitter both have been on a campaign to silence those on the right. Well they have effectively done so and in the process called for further division in this country not brought us together.
