BREAKING: Amazon is kicking Parler off AWS, its web hosting service, which will take them offline until it finds a new host

[Dana7360]

Yep, the purge is real.

They told us to "build our own facebook/twitter" if we didn't' like their rules. So we did, now they changed the goalposts and said "build your own everything."

Next they'll prevent us from using the fiber-optic cables.

No private company is obligated to carry the parler app.

Amazon is a private company. Ownership matters here in a capitalistic society.

If you don't like it, that's just too damn bad.

Amazon isn't going to keep helping traitors to our nation and I'm glad they kicked parler out.

Cry all you want. It won't make any difference. You people are a cancer on our nation and it's about time private business stops giving you people a platform to spread your hate and treason.

You made your beds. Now you are crying about having to lay in it

Get it through your thick heads, no private business has any obligation to do business with you.

You are losers, you always have been losers all your lives and you will die losers.

LOSER.

The thread premise is a lie – there is no ‘purge.’

‘“AWS provides technology and services to customers across the political spectrum, and we continue to respect Parler’s right to determine for itself what content it will allow on its site,” the Amazon notice to Parler said in part. “However, we cannot provide services to a customer that is unable to effectively identify and remove content that encourages or incites violence against others. Because Parler cannot comply with our terms of service and poses a very real risk to public safety, we plan to suspend Parler’s account effective Sunday, January 10th, at 11:59 PM PST.”’

Amazon to Suspend Hosting Services for Parler, Saying App ‘Poses a Very Real Risk to Public Safety’

Far-right social network Parler is set to go dark after Amazon's AWS said it's pulling the plug on the service's internet hosting account.

The service was discontinued because Parler violated the terms of service, no goalposts were moved.

LOL...You seriously don’t think the same could be said about Twitter and Facebook regarding “inciting violence”. The difference is solely based on a political perspective.

I honestly can’t believe that people are so stupid to NOT see the dangers of what is going on now. I knew Democrats were lemmings, but I guess I didn’t know just how deep the indoctrination really is.

 

[debbiedowner]

Wow. This is heavy. This is fascism. Thanks libs.

Not fascism. Common sense.

How is shutting Parler down not fascism.
Its blatant censorship, while still allowing China, Iran, and the other crazies around the world their anti-American speech?!
Parler is now a national treasure that will be supported by many of the 71m...

Is it government or private business censorship?

 

[Foreigner Looking In.]

THIS is the Deepstate. Amazon, Google, and Apple are indeed cancelling free speech. And it's breaking news, all right, that Amazon has just joined the effort. They think we are on the edge of civil war now that the whites are finally fighting back. And I think they are right. They think that civil war would be bad for their businesses -- and boy, is that right!

Is Parler fomenting insurrection? Probably, widely, from what I've seen reported here. I'm not on it ----- yet. It may be harder to silence and cancel people who are sick of all the socialist control culture than they think. It certainly never worked against the Gutenberg printing press.

The thing about a huge sudden new improvement in human communication is that it turns out what people really want to talk about is how much they hate each other and want to kill each other. This is normal. At least, maybe some of you don't like that, but -- yeah, it's totally normal for the human species.

The British smashed the printing presses in the 1770's.
Now the Oligarchs are doing the same.

 

[iceberg]

I see several issues...

Amazon is a private company so it can do what it likes, for one.

Are they and these other tech giants preventing people from setting up new host sites? Everything is so intertwined these days.

Should anyone be forced to host entities calling for/promoting insurgency and political overthrow in the name of free speech? Parler, apparently removed Lin Wood's posts calling for Pence to be executed. Good? Bad? When stuff like that gains enough of a following to push people to act, like we saw this past week, and we have a President openly supporting it...what then?

Funny how they are only doing it to Trump supporters.

Not exactly true - overall the social media giants have suspended/banned the accounts of a number of groups over the past few years. Right now, at this moment, it is certain Trump extremists who have openly called for and supported an attempted violent insurgency, and planned it on social media platforms. Should they have been left alone so they can have a re-do with more arms and competency? How is it any different than any other terrorist group?

when this mindset is applied to all equally, you have a point.

Holler when we do that vs make up bullshit emotional insurance excuses.

 

[C_Clayton_Jones]

Parler was a global forum with members from all over the world, including me. I had built up friends and contacts with people from other countries and we were discussing non-American themes. It was not a U.S political forum. It was international. Much like Twitter. Now it's all gone, we've been censored by the Stalinists, apparently because they allowed images of the protests on Wednesday. Real reason was that they kicked Trump off Twitter and had to block his potential bolthole. But the whole world has to suffer because of Democrat control freakery.

Clearly conservatives in other countries are just was wrong, ignorant, and dishonest as American conservatives.

You used it to plot insurrection. That's a crime. They should be shut down with prejudice and all their user data should be confiscated.

What insurrection? That was a protest. The chant was "stop the steal".
If rioting is a crime, why wasn't antifa and BLM prosecuted for their riots this past summer?
If democrats didn't have a double-standard they wouldn't have any.
So stop whining about "insurrection", here is what a real insurrection looks like, with Russian tanks firing on their Congress, remember?

You can mince words all you want, that was an attempt to overturn an election. An insurgency, like it or don't.

 

[Viacheslav]

I was born in the USSR and have lived for some time under a totalitarian communist regime with one party and only one government media. Then I lived in Russia for a long time and saw how Putin has usurped power from the very beginning. And at first, his steps were to take control of all more or less significant media in Russia. It looks like something like this is happening in the US right now.
But in Russia this was not enough, and Putin has changed many rules in the electoral system, for example, canceled the election of governors. So guys be careful.

 

[Moonglow]

Billions of taxpayer dollars are funding these platforms. They're in violation of the first amendment. You know its bad when the leftist ACLU is calling out these tech companies for violations of the 1a.

The first amend

Sedition? Give me a break. It was a mob gone a bit wild and the police let them in. How does one overthrow the US government without weapons?

Sedition that is thwarted in a couple hours?

So disingenuous of the left to call that sedition. The greatest superpower ever known to the planet was in danger of being overthrown by this fucking guy?????

This is not a credible threat and everyone knows it...its an excuse to censor.

Lefties, I am telling you, when the powers that be determine you are not left enough...YOU WILL BE CANCELLED.

It won't be because I am wearing a fox tail-beaver pelt-bovine horned head dress and cheap Wal Mart pants....

 

[Coyote]

They told us to "build our own facebook/twitter" if we didn't' like their rules. So we did, now they changed the goalposts and said "build your own everything."

We didn't tell you to use it to plan an insurgency.

Turn on zee ovenz! They will turn on you also.

Isn't that what your extremists have been calling for?

They see The Storm as a day of violent retribution, when Trump's enemies in the Democratic party and those they as regard traitors in the Republican party will face mass executions.​

​

QAnon supporters, he said, think events will lead "to the apocalyptic conclusion, the Storm, which theoretically involves mass arrests, military tribunals, and executions throughout the world." ​

​

He explained that few QAnon adherents thought the day of reckoning itself had arrived on Wednesday, but that "even fewer accepted that Trump would not emerge victorious."​

 

[ColonelAngus]

Glaring difference between right and left.

I dont think anyone should be censored for anything that is not illegal.

Everyone on Parler is not posting illegal activity and Facebook and Twitter allow ANTIFA to post about upcoming riots.

This is simply an excuse for the left to silence opposing viewpoints. Its censorship and fascism. Welcome to 1984.

This constitutional republic died 11/3/20.

You and the ACLU are wrong it's not the government who is censoring you it's private or public companies which is their right. You do believe in rights don't you?

Had they not taken billions from the govt, you would have a point. Otherwise, you don't.

So if a small business that took money from the government in the past year kicks you out when you enter for having a loud mouth or you yell fire or screwing with one of their employees kicks you out or bans you from coming back they don't have that right?

You can still post that image of the unfunny comedien holding Trump's bloodied head. She's also still on Twitter.
Same with that low I.Q rapper who made a video of himself shooting Trump. Still on Twitter.
Go on Youtube and you can watch a song titled "Kill Whitey"

The Democrat base aren't lemmings, they are knowingly complicit and endorsing mass censorship and loving it.

It's FASCISM--------------

You need to look up some definitions before you try to use those big words.

Who is that to?

The person directly above me the the quote stream.

Not you.

 

[Circe]

Are free speech and a free press history?

It's harder to prevent free speech than a lot of people think. Eventually people go back to hand-copying news and appeals and passing it from person to person (they did that in Russia). Whatever it takes, people. Let's try to keep speech as free as we can.

should people be allowed to keep lying about what parler is doing so you feel better about doing it?

FB and Twitter tell you they can't stop people doing that on their platform, but parler must?

so damn tired of the hypocrisy.

Only a full fledged war will end it. The sorry bastards won't stop shitting on people.

Yet further evidence of the right’s treason and propensity for violence; yet another example of conservatives’ contempt for the Constitution, the rule of law, our democratic institutions, and the will of the people.

My Great Grandfather was sent to the Gulag by Stalin. These idiots do not realize the direction they are headed.

 

[kyzr]

How is shutting Parler down not fascism.

Because the government isn’t doing it. Amazon doesn’t want to sell their product to Parler. I can hardly blame them.

LOL!! You can tell the difference between the democrats and their big money donors? I call bullshit. Who do you think is calling the shots?
Why do you think section 230 is still there? Another thread called shutting Parler down our "kristallnacht". There can be no more free speech, or free thought, only what is approved by the state. "Big Brother" is taking over all information. Glad you support that?![/QUOTE]

Holler when the left violently invades the capital with the open support and encouragement of the POTUS, in an attempt to overturn the results of an election. In the meantime, I'll take your relentless false moral equivalencies as a sign you have no clue as to the significance of this.

Thanks
