    Wait - so you admit it's just a rumor, but you're going to go on a rant about it now, just in-case, before you bother to verify the rumor because what? If it's
    not true, it won't fit your hair-on-fire narrative?

    And you wonder why people don't take you seriously?

    Are you claiming you read every single post on parlor?
    All of them?

    Prisons are full of people who have 'done nothing wrong'.

    Well I admit it is a rumor and said so on the first page. What I'm ranting about is Amazon taking down Parler for supporting conservatives.

    I'm claiming I have not seen any posts on Parler inciting violence.

    And inferring that since YOU have not seen any, they do not exist, correct?

    That is not why they are pulling them from their servers.

    Parler says in thier TOS they do now allow anyone to incite violence and they do enforce thier rules.

    Amazon's employees wanted Parler removed following Wensdays attack. It's obvious they just wanted to shut Parler down for being unbiased and conservative. Also the #1 app before the ban.

    They don't want us to have a platform to communicate on. It's all part of a agenda.

    AWS told Parler in the email that it had flagged 98 examples to Parler of posts that “clearly encourage and incite violence.” Among the posts it reported to Parler, which were viewed by CNBC, users on the platform made violent threats directed at “liberal leaders, liberal activists #blm leaders and supporters,” in addition to other groups.

    Cute black swan fallacy. You don't see it, so it must not be happening. Well Amazon, Google, and Apple disagree. And the difference between Parler and Twitter (and other social media platforms), when idiot conspiracy theorists start planning crimes and calling for executions on their services, is that Twitter removes something about them.

    Yes, temporary, as Parler will run to a Russian hosting company, just like 8chan and Stormfront before it. And when it becomes a haven for child porn (again, like 8chan and Stormfront), even the Russian company will be forced to dump them. This is how it always goes.

    You asked for evidence, and received at least 5 examples, then dismissed them all, claiming twitter does xyz. I dont think Twitter worries about Amazon do they?
    Its about business plain and simple..If Parlar becomes big enough, then why should they care about Amazon?

    If they become infamous enough..then well there ya go. We will cross that bridge when we get there, like what happened with Stormfront.

    I want to see these 98 examples. They may be nothing more than made up and even still 98 out of a million tweets is far less than what I have seen on Twitter.

    Facebook and Twitter are guilty of the same thing they accuse Parler of.

    You're right, you figured it all out, very clever.
    Its all about you and your victim hood, how the world, the entire world is out to get you and to silence you.
    I'm shocked you figured it all out so easily.

    Geezuz, you're way the hell out there on the rightwing fringe.

    Do you approve of what was done to the Capitol? I think we should prosecute the perps and impeach the Perp-in-Chief.

    What did I say that makes you think I'm "way the hell out there on the rightwing fringe"?

    Of course I do NOT approve of the attacks on Wednesday. Those people should be arrested and charged the maximum penalty.

    Bezos the head of Amazon also owns the Washington Post. So he is behind the Trump trashing from that paper.
    I noticed today on youtube, I saw a speech given by Trump telling the voters to go to the capitol and not commit crimes. Amazon ensures you will not see the actual Trump speech and they put instead some video of some asteroid.

    I swear to god this is fact.

    How can you learn the fact?

    This is the video. See the face and then when you click it, you are now watching some person explaining asteroids.
    Holy sweat hogs superman. Google is changing content of the video. Notice the start shows Trump and when you use the video, it is discussing something completely different.

    Charge them as Antifa was charged when they torched a federal court in Portland Oregon.
