I've been following the collextive for 10 years. They promoted and hosted violent/terrorist activity.

Parler was ripped off the Internet for 1% of this.

You reap what you sow. If you don't support the freedom of people you disagree with politically, I don't support your freedom either.

Covid has forced me to take a hard stance on this.

Parler was "ripped off the Internet" because it was delisted from app stores and dropped by AWS for violating their ToS due to having (If I remember correctly) approximately zero content moderation, which is not really compatible with the mainstream distribution model they wanted. The owners were not subjected to sanctions by a foreign government.

Unless the US government ripped parler off the Internet, this is not a sensible comparison.
