Can we advertise and microtarget there?
My guess is no. It doesn’t look like any advertising is really. Their explanation for how they are going to make money makes me think this thing is viewed as a political project by whoever owns it.
Something about it being influencer focused and advertisers reaching out directly to influencers to do advertising deals. I don’t see how that sends Parler itself any money though.

Trump is a real man. He was tough enough to get injured and avoid the Vietnam draft.
This is reinforcing my theory that these guys are deteriorating into an echo chamber with no consumers - just a bunch of influencers and wannabes influencing each other.
This is obviously true, but they’re selling protein powder and survival gear at a 500% markup, so they only need so many morons.

It’s amazing to me how overtly racist Steven Crowder is. And a lot of right wingers just mainline his bullshit.
Like, easy example, I put on his most recent episode because I’m a glutton and I’m still searching for the mythical funny right wing “commedian.” They were covering a story about NBA players meeting with the pope, giving him gifts, reaching out as ambassadors of peace, yadda yadda yadda.
So what’s the “joke” that professional comedian Steven Crowder comes up with? Why, that the NBA players must have brought a copy of Madea’s Family Reunion to the Pope as a gift! Why? Ummmm, cause… black people, I guess?
I honestly dont get the joke. I’m not a fan of the Madea movies, but they arent the movie I would pick out as a quintessential bad movie to bring the pope. Why not The Room, or Birdemic, or something involving child molestation? Primal Fear! Like, I could see somebody giving the pope Primal Fear as a gift to be funny. But to imagine that black people give the pope a black movie because black isnt a fucking joke. It’s not funny. Its overtly racist. And he knows it because his next sentence was “oh by the way, the media accuses Parler of being racist, and we are now on Parler.”
What a disgusting asshole

I’m not a fan of Schumer, but she was on a panel with him before she blew up and told him to his face nobody thinks of him as a comedian and no one respects him in their industry and he had no fucking reply.

So the Christmas parade in my town was just cancelled. And apparently that is a big deal around here.
My wife made this post on facebook.
And our moron state representative, this guy, https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.dispatch.com/news/20200524/capitol-insider-gop-smackdown-at-ohio-statehouse-representative-tells-senator-im-64-290pds--wont-be-pushed-around%3Ftemplate=ampart, showed up and decided to melt down on her Facebook post.
Some third parties really got him spiraling to include him calling his constituents dumb, him threatening a local school board member, him patting himself on the back for how many lives he’s saved (he literally said ‘I’m saving lives too’ in response to a healthcare worker’s comments, and ultimately him deleting it all and blocking almost everyone involved on Facebook. How I wasn’t screenshotting as it went on I have no idea.

Holy shit towns actually have Christmas parades? I thought that was just made up for Lifetime Christmas movies.
I need to know - in addition to Christmas parades - are small town Christmas galas, formals, balls or pageants also real?
Yes there is an annual ‘Mistletoe Ball’ here that was a fundraiser for the local hospital, but now the local hospital is owned by a mega hospital group, so I’m not sure where those funds go. It’s basically people dressing up, getting drunk, and paying too much for absolute shit auction items so they can feel like a big fish in a little pond. My wife drug me there once.

To be clear, what this guy is saying is that it’s entertaining to converse with us because we’re so stupid and blind to the truth that it’s hilarious.

Dude you literally just typed the plot of a Lifetime or Hallmark Christmas movie. The only difference is your wife should actually be a hard-charging big city businesswoman, and you her high school flame. Through a series of flight cancellations and mishaps, she winds up blowing her big promotion in order to help to save the Misteltoe Ball in her hometown. But most importantly, she realizes that you were always actually The One and big city life isn’t all it’s cracked up to be.

I’m now watching Mario Lopez in Feliz Navi-DAD on Lifetime. Holy shit he has had some weird plastic surgery. He looks like a Ken doll. Or Ken’s Mexican buddy. Dude is 47 and paired with some chick who’s probably 27. But his skin is pulled so tight they look the same.
I can’t do it. This one isn’t cheesy enough and is trying for actual dialog.
If I was tripping Mario’s face would be blowing my mind right now.

No, that wouldn’t do it around here. It might make him more popular.
