It was a better world when every city had two newspapers, one being more liberal than the other, than just having one common source of news that tries to appeal across the whole political spectrum, it just doesn’t work.

Ditto for Social Media, have a Social Media channel that is more liberal than the other, and one that is explicitly more conservative. There can be some debate, but it has to be within reasonable limits, that stay aligned with the political orientation of the board. Hopefully that is the role that Parler can fulfill, but even so, there still has to be some kind of moderation, to avoid being infiltrated by extremists, which of course, in more cases, are just trolls.

“there still has to be some kind of moderation”

Did twitter ever take down those tweets calling for Covington kids to be beaten, doxxed, and their lives ruined? How about the one who was going to give a BJ to whoever did that? Are those all in “reasonable limits”?
