A number of the users from Parler joined the social network I built. Although I don't lean conservative in my own views (center), I believe that silencing those you feel are mis-informed or wrong only makes -- and has made -- the problem worse. An open ~discord~ discourse(oops, edit) is needed. People don't get that on Parler either. They should have a place they feel comfortable speaking about their (non-violent) views. And others should have the tools to voice their opposition openly -- and anonymously -- as well. Social networks have polarized people nearly beyond repair. I don't have to agree with you to believe you still have the right to voice your opinion. You have the right to be wrong. You have the right to an opportunity for growth.

Funny note, Parler did a copy-pasta of our motto in their re-launch.

I'm guessing you didn't mean to say "An open discord is needed" but thanks for the humor. :)

Absolutely meant discourse. The irony.
