It might sound controversial, but the right wing deserves their own social network, and i think the actions of the widely known GAFAT are not something that we should mindlessly support, because the fact that their interests find coincidences with ANTIFA’s principles doesn’t mean they strive for human rights or that they care.
Right wing politics deserve their own social media for several reasons, but not all of these are convenient for them. Donald Trump loved Twitter because it gave him a big platform where he could reach people outside of his bigoted and conservative politics. With a niche social network like Parler, you objectively only reach conservative minded people, and they are, at this moment, not the majority.
This could be applied to the fediverse as well tho.
I agree. People are missing the bigger picture here: it only takes the cooperation of 5 or 6 ISPs to kill you. Piss them off and you are done. Could you imagine a world in which some religious nut jobs work their way up the ranks in places like Google and Facebook? There is already foreshadowing of this in places like China.

Not if they use it to, for example, incite violence, which is the current issue with Parler.
