Doesn't seem they were advocating for violence.


because they didn't call for a violent overthrow of the government but a peaceful jazz fest like they had 9 years prior. they are calling for an occupy wallstreet 2.0

the stuff that parler was leaving up was outright sedition and calls for violence.


> Fifty days — September 17th to November 3rd. > > Let us once again summon the sweet, revolutionary nonviolence that was our calling card in Zuccotti Park.

If your stated intent explicitly calls for ‘non-violence’, I expect this doesn’t violate ToS despite potential inferences from the sensational branding.

I never heard of this before so I don’t even know what happened on Sept. 17. Was it violent?
