Nah I'm pretty sure that's the reason

Nope. It’s even called out by Twitter that it’s been a culmination over time.

>>Blocking parler does jack shit in stopping people’s ability to coordinate violence.

It definitely helps. Just because people can coordinate using other mediums is not an argument against making it more difficult for them.

How does it help? Parler's terms of service ban calls for violence.

The simple explanation is usually the correct one: Parler's growing so fast that it simply can't keep up with policing the content. They need to add a lot more moderators and things will calm down.

Google and Apple are making a mistake.

Yeah, I've heard this referred to as the "people will find a way to get heroin anyway, so illegalizing heroin production/sale is pointless" argument

Put more succinctly, the "might as well not pass any laws then" argument.

Maybe an unpopular opinion here but I think people should have a platform where they can safely coordinate activities that those in power don't agree with. Limiting peoples ability to organize is a decent into a police state IMO. Granted there has to be some tension where law enforcement is looking for terrorists, but overall, shutting down platforms to prevent people you disagree with from organizing is antithetical to being a free country.
