Parler is about free speech the same way Fox News is fair and balanced. They say that because that's what their target demographic wants to hear, not because there's any truth to the statement.

Personally, I think America is overly concerned with "moral integrity". Maybe it's due to the high Christian population.
I think many European countries that are very sexually open such as Germany, the Netherlands and Denmark are doing just fine. I also think that OnlyFans is an important service that gives sex workers the power to work for themselves in their own homes as opposed to having to make a living through less safe options. Customers get more personalized content and sex workers get a higher percentage of their payments while avoiding potentially physically or emotionally abusive situations - seems like a win-win to me.
And “doing just fine” is still debatable.
Good riddance, I say.
This is a slippery slope, we used it to silence a sitting president.. these same companies won’t hesitate to silence you

Maybe if he didn't want to get banned from a platform, he should've avoided constantly lying and breaking the rules of said platform?
Like, you're literally suggesting "the president should be above the rules".
PS if he was breaking rules of the platform for so long why ban him only after they know he lost the election? Seems to go along with my “powerful people make the rules” complaint.
Personally, I feel like they should've just banned him to begin with for all the lying, but being a private business, they have the right to decide who gets to speak on their own platform.
If you ban him before the election and he wins, then he has 4 years to retaliate against you.
But it has absolutely nothing to do with the principle of free speech.
