Apple: “Parler has not taken adequate measures to address the proliferation of these threats to people’s safety. We have suspended Parler from the App Store until they resolve these issues.”
Seems pretty reasonable in light of what we've witness Wednesday Jan 6th at the Capitol.
Why would we want to interpret this reaction as being an escalation or an all-out assault on the 1st Amendment?
- pldr2244 6y agoAs another illuminative poster above noted, it increases the “victimhood” and “specialness” that Parler participants feel. They want to interpret this in fully combative terms. It’s quite scary how they see the world through such a lens. I feel Apple and Google performed the lesser of two evils here. Only time will tell though.
