    Maybe they can resurface as "tRump tv"? Or maybe more appropriately
    "Chump TV".
    Please leave your Trump 2024 signs in your yard. That way, my dog will know where to take a dump.

    I wonder why the left is so intent on controlling the narrative. Why not let things be and let the American people decide what they want to believe? Why is that a problem for the left?

    Default The case has no merit

    U.S. District Judge Barbara Rothstein in Seattle said Parler was unlikely to prove Amazon breached its contract or violated antitrust law by suspending service on Jan. 10, and that it was "not a close call."

    She also forcefully rejected the suggestion that the public interest would be served by a preliminary injunction requiring Amazon Web Services to "host the kind of abusive, violent content at issue in this case, particularly in light of the recent riots at the U.S. Capitol."
    Until November 4, 2020 conservatives spent entire careers raging against the scourge of frivolous lawsuits.

    For some weird reason, in the last 10 weeks, conservatives have become the biggest fans of frivolous lawsuits on the whole planet.

    How do you define "frivolous" lawsuit?

    Parler controlled the speech. They booted leftys off so fast that it was clear, they wanted only right-wing hate speech. That is anathema to free speech.

    Does the left ever engage in hate speech?

    Fake News. This case will most likely be appealed. This judge is obviously biased. The ruling is ridiculous. Amazon itself had part in it's users inciting insurrection and riots. It must therefore ban itself by its own reasoning. Further. by making Parler responsible for the content of its users, Amazon likewise should be held accountable for the content of each of its users and for each book or movie it sells. By it's own reasoning, it no longer has any valid claim to Section 230.

    The same is true of Google (and Youtube and Android).

    The same is true of Apple.

    Further, the judge has exposed herself to criminal and civil charges for openly violating the law, including Section 230, and Washington contract law.

    For the simple reason that 'the left' cannot afford the truth or open discussions. It cannot afford dissidence. It must be brutally quashed.

    But dissidence doesn't go away. This is the mistake all socialists make.

    Suing Amazon for violation of contract law is a legitimate case. It is not frivolous.

    Parler didn't boot any liberal for being a liberal. It is DEMOCRATS making hate speech. They've made it about Trump for FIVE YEARS. So have YOU.

    Inversion fallacy. It is DEMOCRATS that are shutting out users for political opinions. It is DEMOCRATS that are trying to shut down Parler. It won't work. Parler is already coming back online, independent of YOUR desire to quash it. YOU don't control the internet. Amazon doesn't either. Neither does Google. Neither does Apple. All these idiots are doing is killing their own business.

    The left has for forty years made the mistaking of believing that if they could control all conversations in polite society then they could regulate minds to their liking....They never paid enough attention to Jung.....driving the ideas that they dont like underground both makes them harder to track and makes them more dangerous....these clods are both stupid and abusive....not a great combo.
    This illegal illegitimate regime that runs America is at fault...not me.... they do not represent me and I have long objected to their crimes against humanity.

    I guess wanting facts and proof to reign is bad? You have no problem with stations or sites spewing propaganda? Many think that is dangerous to the Republic.

    Listen closely my little twat. You are about as close to being an attorney, a legal expert, as is my mailman. Please dont pretend you have a fucking clue, cause you dont and never have and definitely never will.

    Well biden said that democrats prefer truth to facts. What I especially like is you believe only the left has "facts and proof". It never occurs to you that you could be mistaken. That's really an intellectually lazy position to take. Sorry to say but it is.
