From what I've heard (I don't use Parler) one of their selling points it actually that they're quicker than Twitter as censoring.

Twitter allows (and promotes?) hate mobs while Parler supposedly doesn't.

[victorbstan]

How does that work? Since most of the hate mobs are in Parler now?

> most of the hate mobs are in Parler

Unless you provide proof, there is no reason to discuss this.

[wyoh]

There's no hate mob in Parler, they're all conservatives, why would they hate each other.

[indigo945]

Because at this point, there is a sharp divide between conservatives who care about fiscal responsibility and family values, and "conservatives" who care about unmasking (((conspirators))) in pizza restaurants. Although to be fair, the platform will likely attract nothing but the latter.

Not sharp enough to say, vote for a better candidate

There’s no hate in the KKK. They are all white. Why would they hate each other?

See the problem with this construction?

[Rick1]

Everybody likes the "in-group" and hates the rest. Although the word hate tends to mainly be used about other people.

[throwaway29399]

Absolutely not.

You are implying that hating people based on something they cannot control (e.g. ethnicity) is normal.

[Rick1]

Actually that's not what I said it all. The concept on in/out-group can be completely arbitrary, e.g. assigned by flipping a coin. The principle still holds.

That said, since you bring it up, the history of humanity is largely the history of war between different ethnic groups. So yes, hating people based on ethnicity has been the norm for most of human history. It's still largely the case in varying degrees in different parts of the world.
