Merely being on YouTube doesn't really mean sh*t.

I disagree with you analysis. Freepers make the same argument about Facebook and Twitter. The are as easy to use as a public drinking fountain therefore they are used. Stuff that you might search out and find may make you an above average user, but you don't really need convincing do you?

Never joined Facebook or Twitter.
I read President Trump’s tweets sure but you don't need to join before reading.
It's not the platform. It's the people.
If President Trump moves his account from Twitter to Parler today, his posts on Parler will have exactly the same effect as they do on Twitter. Because he is Trump.
Parler’s numbers will skyrocket by tens of millions within days, as President Trump’s 88 million Twitter followers (especially his enemies cause they want to continue to troll him) move to Parler. Especially as you need to join Parler before you can read someone’s posts.
