> Parler was literally designed with suppression of political viewpoints they disagree with in mind from the start.

"We're a community town square, an open town square, with no censorship... If you can say it on the street of New York, you can say it on Parler."

That's a quote from the CEO I just grabbed from CNBC[1] and there are others floating around about the lack of censorship.

How does that lead to suppression of opposing political viewpoints?

This is just talk. You can scroll up to the head of the thread and see how the platform was designed to censor in order to maintain a certain ideology.

If you can't construct a proper response don't denigrate mine, thanks.

Again, if it's too much effort for you to construct proper responses then you shouldn't respond at all.

That is not what the tweets show. They show that there are moderation tools. There is no proof that any view was censored, you, along with the tweeter, have inferred that. If you have a statement sent out to mods about what should be allowed, or you have something that shows certain types of speech were suppressed then you can make the claim. "Social network has moderation tools and mods" does not cut it.

Now, if you're going to reply again I'd ask that you try harder to maintain some civility and up the quality, probably through greater effort.
