Just curious - anyone have anything to say about Parler?
Roger that. And if not yelling opinions, they are posting "info" that can be proven wrong with about 3 seconds of time on Google. It really saddens me to see that so many of my real-life friends are so gullible and easily misled....social media platforms have devolved from that to millions of people standing out on a soap box on a street corner yelling their opinions at people that pass by...
Along those lines, when I was doing the market in downtown Knoxville, we would have a couple of guys with sandwich boards on the street corner across from me "proselytizing" ... according to him we were all destined for Hell.... sometimes so loud I couldn't talk to my customers. Fortunately, he only came a couple times a month.My opinion is that the social media platforms have devolved from that to millions of people standing out on a soap box on a street corner yelling their opinions at people that pass by. I really don't have time for that.
Technically, forums like Family Woodworking are a type of social media. One big difference here is that we have rules and folks who abide by them.What's social media?
