Parler, Apple, Google, Twitter are not public venues. In no possible way are they for public debate.

If you go on Parler and call Donald Trump a malignant narcissist, you will get banned. If you say too many political things on Hacker News, you get warned and banned.

None of these places are public venues. They are not the thing you seem to think they are. Maybe they aren't even what they have purported to be up until now.

Does Parler actually ban people? I assumed anything goes.
