Google removes Parler from app store, could also be removed from Apple's if it doesn't implement a moderation plan
Google removed Parler for posing a "public safety threat." And Apple reportedly ordered it to implement a moderation plan within the next 24 hours.

The enemy is at the gates and so many of you are ignoring it.
We have LAWS to punish ANY speech deemed to be a threat to others. And Google is not a law enforcement entity.
Many of you have the "they are a private business so they can do what they want" attitude. That attitude was fine for the first 200 years of our nation but times & technology have changed DRASTICALLY.
We simply can not allow any business to control the flow of public discourse.
Google & Apple are essentially acting just like the Communists & Authoritarians in other nations who control the flow of information.
Like it or not the "public square" is no longer the park or state house steps. It is online.
This kind of gatkeeping that crushes alternatives must be stopped.
And just for the record I don't use Parlor so this isn't a personal thing for me.
