Republican lawmakers have joined the social media site Parler as GOP tensions with Twitter and other major tech platforms mount, but so have hordes of fake accounts claiming to belong to conservative politicians.members of Congress have set up accounts on Parler, with a vast majority doing so in recent weeks and even days, according to a POLITICO review confirmed by lawmaker offices.
Many of the fake Parler accounts present themselves like any typical congressional social media page, posting advisories about upcoming events, putting out statements on timely issues and sharing notable articles with constituents — making them nearly indistinguishable from an official forum. Others are more flagrantly false, with one phony account for a Democratic lawmaker sharing links from a far-right blog known for spreading hoaxes.
That’s a challenge Parler is now running into at full speed, as officials in the highest ranks of the Republican Party join the site in rapid succession. While the site has been widely seen as freewheeling, Parler does have rules about content and user conduct, includingThe GOP movement onto Parler was at first slow, then suddenly swift. Paul, the libertarian Kentucky senator, was among the first lawmakers to publicly announce they had joined in August.

It took 5 minutes of review to understand that Parler is a platform for love fest among neo-conservatives, fear mongers, bigots, and racists.

Funny how the trump-mcconnell-gop needed a safe space to spout their lies and cries.
Actually it's the rise of fake trump-mcconnell-gop 'lawmakers' (read 'law breakers') that is causing the fake, phony, echo chamber parler problems. Hell - I can't simply delete my curiosity account.
Gee
Parler = Echo-Chamber No Thanks.
I did “Nat see” this happening.
GOP going to Parler, a wonderful reason to never check it out☺️
I have an account on Parler for my own personal amusement. I am one of those trolls and I love it. I don't want these GOP pussies to feel safe ANYWHERE.
