Rather report the post. Giving the troll attention and getting banned as a result isn't worth it,

The trolling of emotional school kids should be ignored. He said killary, the maturity level of the person is not very high.

Give me a fn break. Parler is a company and Amazon is a company. You're free to do business or not do business with whomever you wish. If it helps think of Amazon as a bakery and Parler as a gay couple looking for a cake

Courts will shoot it down. Sorry this isn't a free speech issue. And forums that serve as nothing more than petri dishes for terrorism shouldn't be platformed anyway.
They are pushing for antitrust.
I don't think they have a good case against amazon though, but maybe google and apple.

That's just disingenuous from Musk
Twitter is not the the de facto arbiter of free speech, but they are the de facto arbiter of free speech on their platform.
It's never really that simple, especially when it comes to politics.

Parler has reportedly got another cloud service provider...

I doubt their terms with amazon agree with pulling the plug on their servers within the given time frame. Otherwise they won't be going for the "breach of contract" route.
Parler is a cesspool of crazy weird religious conspiracy nutters though. Checked it out yesterday.
Looks like Alex Jones created a social media network.Still against the purging though. It's pretty much evident that Apple, Google, Twitter and Facebook are in a Mexican standoff and don't really have a choice which could risk them even more economic fall. It does get a bit different with politics since the person who cuts the feed of a mic on a democratically elected leader because they didn't like what that leader has to say will probably go to jail for treason. Regardless of whether it's a private company.

With a Democratic President, Senate and Congress I'm not sure that will happen.
