Why would these fools give a damn sbout Parler? Because they are Totalitarians who love censorship which is why they want a monopoly to control what the serfs see and don’t see.
This right here. Big tech walks around thinking they've accomplished some giant technical miracle that only they could while simultaneously knowing that cloning their shit is nothing more than a demo exercise for any given software stack. The work that big tech did was in marketing and monitizing their little rent seeking walled gardens, the real work was done by far greater minds who layed down the actual infrastructure that makes up the internet.
It takes them billions of dollars and entire warehouses of codemonkey slaves to cobble together something a dozen guys with an actual brain can manage. These people are a cargo cult.

Did you ever see the Coen Brothers movie Millers Crossing ?
"Leo, the only reason you run things is because people think you run things. The minute they stop thinkin' that, you stop runnin' things."
I was thinking the same thing. When you get this type of reaction it just reinforces the fact that we need to keep doing what we're doing.
