So I have some disappointing news about the supposed "free speech" alternative to Twitter / FB called Parler (I've sure you've heard about it or use it by now).
Parler is actively censoring pro-Trump, anti-lockdown, anti-Biden news.
Anyone can test this easily.
Open up Parler and try to share this link:

This isn't the only one.
I became suspicious of Parler after some friends of mine were banned with no reason given and were ignored by Parler's support. I then found others who were banned and they said they raised alerts when they saw news stories and news sites suddenly being blocked by the app.
Why in the hell is Parler, who is targeting Trump voters and collecting millions of phone numbers, now secretly blocking news? Doesn't seem to fit their "free speech" message, does it?
Be suspicious.
Well, my account got banned while testing this theory. So good luck to you guys! WTF!
