    Do you not find it a bit of a tell that literally no article on this topic is saying what the users actually posted? The only clue is the one guy quoted who said, "Pretty much all of my leftist friends joined Parler to screw with MAGA folks". I suspect "screwing with MAGA folks" probably translates to something like spamming various users and posts with unrelated content and likely porn, and so on. People don't bemoan Twitter banning people - they bemoan them banning them *unfairly*. People who are clearly trying to ruin the site solely for the sake of ruining the site, should be banned on both Twitter and Parler. The issue is when Twitter bans people out of political bias.

    Anyhow, add a troll downmod and continue your circle jerk in complete denial of reality - as usual.

    Thanks for proving my point!

    You want the freedom to censor whoever you want and also the freedom to force other people to publish whatever you want.

    The entire Reddit community would like a word regarding T_D users who flooded other subs with their partisan Trump bullshit. Oh that was OK? Because you're a hypocrite? Understood.
