Yes they are not one entity, and yet they all more or less simultaneously decided trump (and parler) “violate our TOS.” It’s precisely this sort of collusion, with the figleaf of “our TOS” (give me a break, these were acts of political expediency not previously unknown TOS violations that all suddenly came to light) that I find alarming. If he/parler were kicked off one or two places it wouldn’t be as scary. It’s the blackout from social network to app stores all the way down to web infrastructure that I found shocking.
If it’s hard to get upset about trump/parler getting banned, just sub in your favourite political or artistic group and gauge your reaction.
