Banning Parler isn't the first time Google has censored apps for wrongthink:
"Google told Xavier Guillemane, the developer of Podcast Addict, that the app had been removed due to its references to COVID-19:
“Pursuant to Section 8.3 of the Developer Distribution Agreement and the Enforcement policy, apps referencing COVID-19, or related terms, in any form will only be approved for distribution on Google Play if they are published, commissioned, or authorized by official government entities or public health organizations.“"
