In your comparison it's about what CAN be done with the highway. For the comparison to hold true it's more like we let them knowingly drive there while we're 100% aware where they are at that moment. So we could have acted on it but didn't and watched them do it.

Threats, slander and misinformation where never part of free speech and never will be. Invoking "free speech" here is disingenuous.

To go back to your comparison, if Parler - or anything similar - was like the highway we wouldn't know about what was going on. But we do, and it's inciting violence so it's basic human decency to stop it. Even apart from anything that a government would say. I don't get it, why are we still talking about this on HN.
