It makes perfect sense. If you wanted to kill Parler off for good, you would post the exact words Milo just posted. Parler cannot survive if it lets people post calls to imminent criminal violence, so either it makes an exception for Milo's calls to imminent criminal violence because he's doing it ironically and hopes its enemies do the same (they won't), or they get rid of the dumb bastard.
It's quoted in the article:
Inciting imminent lawless action is a crime, and Parler cannot control the real world context that determines whether this status is inciting imminent lawless action.
He was joking and nothing he said was illegal under the first amendment. If it was the fbi would have jumped at the chance to make an example of him.
Now if he said that in the UK then he probably would have been charged because the UK doesn't have a first amendment.
