Next step: your internet provider will not resolve parler.com.

First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out — Because I was not a socialist.

First they came for the fascists and I was like "Ok, cool, they attempted to violently overthrow the government, rather poorly, and I'm ok with you discontinuing business with them"

I'm not sure who you think fascists are, but fascists are doing fine when they are represented in parliament instead of forced underground.

We saw it in many European countries, where far right organisations participate in elections, get their 5% of seats, and everybody's happy.

I don't see how Parler are "violent criminals".

I don't even see how Trump is violent criminal.
