I understand where you’re coming from, maybe there is a perfectly reasonable way for them to achieve the same goals without phone verification. And I tend to agree they could handle it better. But let me play devil's advocate.

This site follows a completely different model. What is the benefit to creating 100 fake accounts on this site? You are anonymous and want to be, there is no self promotion or brand-building happening here. In addition to that we aren’t a place to come to debate whether a leftist idea is good or bad, we are admittedly one sided by design.

So bot detection is likely made easier on here because us real patriot human beings have critical mass. Any single person trying to sway opinion via vote manipulation, concern trolling etc will have a much harder time because of that.

Twatter and Parler are not the same as .win and would be crushed without additional verification.

IMO part of the reason reddit went down the shitter was spam accts.

Honestly I’m just riffing here but as a dev that’s what comes to mind. And if my bias for Parler is showing that’s because I do forever have a soft spot for them after what AWS did. Fuck Amazon. Fuck Google, apple, fuck everyone of those leftist big tech faggot retarded shitholes.
