#12“Right to exist” talk sounds like socialism. It’s a free market. Find someone who wants to host your app. Pay them. There is no problem.

#13> Can Ethereum Help?
Of course not. No amount of blockchain magic can obviate the need for physical infrastructure to host a large web service.
(No, "it'll be distributed" or "it'll be on the blockchain" aren't viable solutions.)

#14Earlier quoted context omitted.
Yeah yeah everyone is a facist and nazi. We get it. Yawn.
They'll admit it if you speak to them, in a round about way. At this point you're either anti-fascist or not.
Who is "they" lmao ironically enough you are talking more like a fascist than them.
If they are so open about their fascism why is the elft unable to prove to us that they are facist?
After a good look at what the so called antifascists and blm did in latino commonuties during the riots. I disagree. They have acted the way that the fascists are supposed to act.

#15We're never gonna get anywhere unless we come to terms with the fact that some things do not have a right to exist.
Parler itself can exist, but some of the content on it cannot because it is straight up illegal (plots of murder for example).
There are tons of examples of things that society has decided cannot exist, this isn't new, Parler seems to think it is though.

#16Parler most certainly does have a right to exist.
And companies have a right to not associate with a platform that incites violence and foments activity against the very constitution it appeals to.

#17There's a dream of crypto not just being about currency but also distributed servers, or even MMORPGs (akin to Ready Player One), that are fully open source and decentralized -- enabled by technologies like Ethereum contracts or Hedera Hashgraph gossip protocol. I wonder what the first example with wide usage will be.

#19Parler (a social network or publication platform) has the right to exist. Parler (a platform to publish hate and to make threats of violence without consequence) does NOT have a right to exist.
