He decided to buy his own social media company after being suspended from Instagram and Twitter for mentioning Jews (later started criticizing them).

Parler doubles in value with a celebrity owner, good deal for him.

The anti-Semite / mental illness narrative is just the standard playbook for anyone that criticizes Jews.

Criticizing an ethnic group / culture is racist. If you're racist against Jews, that's called anti-Semitism. It's a reliable indicator that someone is a nutcase, either far-right or far-left.

It's even worse than many other forms of bigotry because Jews have been targeted for genocide repeatedly over the centuries, most recently one human lifetime ago, and in an advanced Western nation.

Looks like they're about to get a chunk of Ye's cash, so it's worth more than zero until the transaction closes.
