I really hope Parler can be back in a week.

Twitter's Jack Dorsey Mocks Parler Purge
One thing that could be said for Standard Oil's John D. Rockefeller. Although he was a monopolist, he never openly gloated nor mocked the competitors that he suppressed or destroyed. The same cannot be said of the twenty-first century blatant monopolist, Jack Dorsey of Twitter. Not content to act in tandem with other social media monopolists in order to attempt to destroy his competitor, Parler, he rubbed salt in the wound he helped create by gloating about it with a mocking tweet.
Because Twitter permanently banned President Trump along with its general crackdown on free speech, many Twitter users have begun switching to Parler which for awhile made it the number one free app download.

This obviously did not sit well with the Orwellian social media giants so acting in tandem, Apple and Google removed access to the Parler app followed by Amazon removing Parler from its web hosting service. Soon afterwards, Parler fell from it's download ranking due to the suppression by the social media monopolies leading to this gloating tweet by Jack Dorsey:

There was a furious reaction to Dorsey's Tweet about a competitor that posed a threat to his monopoly.
