Each exiled from a progressive platform, a parallel right-wing one awaits

Evidence

Kicked off Twitter? Sign up for the copycat site Gettr, the right-wing Twitter rival started by the former Trump aide Jason Miller: “Unlike the Silicon Valley oligarchs, Gettr will NEVER sell your data.” (Wolf has nearly 200,000 followers there, more than on Twitter before she got booted.) … Censored by YouTube? Get an account on Rumble. … Shadow banned on Instagram? Try Parler. “Speak freely,” the company urges, on “the premier social media app guided by the First Amendment.” … Did GoFundMe refuse to distribute the money you raised to support your favorite Freedom Convoy, claiming the funds would be used to support violence and harassment? Don’t worry, GiveSendGo, “The #1 Free Christian Fundraising Site,” will distribute the cash, along with a prayer, no questions asked. — Naomi Klein, Doppelganger, 351

• SEED: The parallel-platform anatomy (Gettr/Rumble/Parler/GiveSendGo mapping to Twitter/YouTube/Instagram/GoFundMe) is a neat mapping for an essay on the right’s shadow infrastructure.
