I did note that message from Parler's CEO at the time it was posted. My take was he is applying Trump's suggesting that he would designate Antifa as a terrorist group. This indicates to me, Parler's governing principles are not a matter of law, but a matter of knee-jerk, reactionary, and arbitrary pronouncements that feel right.
Antifa, as it is...whatever it is, does not meet the F the T or the O, that would define a FTO. But that wouldn't stop Trump from declaring it, and Parler's CEO from applying a threat that can't be implemented to those in his personal playground.
Worse still is a CEO just shitting out a harebrained, threatening post like this for general consumption. The cult was super excited to read it and commented as much.
That the idea is inoperable, against the stated principles of the site, and a clear "tell" of what Parler actually is.
I don't know why I got banned. I'm just banned. The last thing I tweeted was a response to a truly bizarre message from the CEO over there. This is pretty much a quote of what I typed:
"Oh my God. I can't believe Parler's CEO is typing this, gonna cap this screen."
The day prior to that I spent a half hour dropping F-bombs (allowed) and critiquing some knucklehead posts. Maybe F bombs aren't allowed, even though it is implied they are.
I was writing a blog post about twitter vs parler; their differences, similarities and I checked in on parler one more time and saw the most bizarre post by their CEO. Which pretty much confirmed for me what was going on there.
Anyway, I spent an hour over 2 days, giving "conservatives" a hard time, and got banned too.

I don't find this type of low grade trolling particularly interesting.

No idea. Don't care at all really.
