There are enough conservative outlets that should both be willing to fund the development and for a marketing outlet.
Hell, I am the furthest thing from a conservative but if conservatives are really so inept that they can’t create their own forums, give me the money. I’ll figure it out. I’m not going to do your marketing for you. But if an atheist can make it big selling bible apps,I’ll take their money to create a forum.
Oh and BTW, I think I probably know a little more about “systemic racism” than you do. You can’t imagine the looks we got when we first started searching for homes and getting one built in the neighborhoods where “we don’t belong” or the number of times that consultants came in to talk to the dev lead and started talking to one of my reports and walked right past me.
They are simply cynically using the fears/persecution complexes of conservatives (many of whom have huge audiences on the social networks they claim are oppressing them) as a ploy to seed their network with a large pool of users.
If the people migrating really cared about tech censorship, they'd launch a Mastadon node.
I think it's not intellectually honest to believe systemic issues in one instance require intervention, but not in the other.
