This list of “moderators” is pretty damning (if we’re talking about neutrality):

As opposed to Twitter which is known for hiring conservative moderators as they strive for neutrality.

I don’t know if the moderation log is in the leaks, but that’s something that you could draw some conclusions from. So far all this is conjecture.


I don’t think this particular conjecture is that sensational and backs up what Amazon has already claimed. This list of moderators overwhelmingly are Republicans/conservatives and some of them make concerning assertions in their bios.


I said it’s conjecture and you don’t disagree. I’ll leave it to you how sensational it is. I have biases but I would have no problem in moderating without them as above else I believe in free speech, so this argument is not very convincing, personally. You might be right, though, I’ve never used Parler, so IDK. But evidence is evidence and that Twitter statement was dishonest.
