>Parler's entire marketing schtick was that it was a haven for 'free speech' that might get you banned or fact checked on other networks.

Note that "free speech" in the US is far from absolute. And there is some speech that, if Parler (or anyone else) doesn't remove it, they can be subject to criminal (e.g., child porn, setting up drug deals, etc.) and/or civil (copyright violations) litigation.

As such, anyone who claims they don't moderate is probably lying, unless they want to go to jail, get sued into oblivion or both.
