> "free speech".
On this topic, I've seen reports on Twitter and Reddit of people who don't fit Parler's "prescribed worldview" being banned.
Not so free after all.

How much free speech do you have on this site? Why don't you try agitating for violence here and see what happens.
After all, it's just speech right?

I would expect to be flagged, and then banned, and rightfully so.
I was just pointing out that Parler is nowhere near as "free" as it claims to be.

free speech is a human right, but it's limited (in the declaration of human rights, maybe read it?!) to things that dont hurt public peace, that dont negatively impact someone else's rights, etc.

To be clear, I am not defending Parler, at all.
I was actually condemning them for not even living up to the standards they claim to profess, in addition to their other issues.

I got that now, I misunderstood you, apologies. I was just really excited to share this knowledge!
Let's see what comes out of this data dump before getting too sanguine about loss of "free speech".
