“Parler.com won’t make it because they do not solicit or allow advertising. They do not have to go crazy, but they have to allow some, like the pillow man.”

Duh!

Free Republic.com won’t make it because they do not solicit or allow advertising. They do not have to go crazy, but they have to allow some, like the pillow man.

It gets boring to be sharing the same type of hate...

As usual, the left never gets it — and deflects their own crap onto others...

Everyone in that article, except Wernick, didn’t exist.

This article is completely made up, I bet. Can anyone find the other names? LinkedIn?

Those names reek of “made up”.

No bias there.

There are may “do you want to see Morten’s of me” posts. They need a way to filter these.

Under verification.

A drivers license
Passport
Or other photo ID

Just think if Parler is hacked/sold...

Methinks the liberal press doth protest too much. I would prefer dying of boredom to being on Twitter.

I’m on Parler but I do not know how to see what others say. On Twitter you can see responses to original ‘tweets’ but it seems on Parler all you see is the original news item or statement. That makes it feel kind of isolated to me.

Is there a way to see other’s responses?

I tried Parler too with similar results.

I actually found out shortly after this how to do it. You click on the left side (or however it is set up on your page). The symbol that looks like a comic book ‘talking’ balloon, only it is empty and it takes you to the comments on that post.

If you hover over that balloon that points downward it has the word, ‘comments’ come up. You just click that balloon.

It seemed that way to me too at first but I started seeing the little message thing at the bottom left of the original post. I didn’t notice it at first, I even googled how to see the comments but it seems maybe I couldn’t see it at first? Might try checking again.

I think that’s it....it’s the symbol that looks like a Reply button....so, I wasn’t clicking on it, if I wasn’t replying....just trying to read replies.

So, I clicked on that...and, Viola, there were the replies.

Kind of a strange set up.

I like Gab’s interface a lot better.
