If what Amazon says is true, that they asked parler to remove these posts and they refused, then IMO Parler will have a tough case against Amazon.

The thing is Parler has First Amendment rights and Section 230 protections, too.  ASW had a contract to provide them with services, which they arbitrarily terminated in violation of its terms for content which Parler did not generate.  If they want to argue it was their right since their servers were being used to take down the content, then Amazon should have taken down the content, not acted in coordination with Apple and Google to destroy an entity, Parler, protected under Section 230 -- they were applying a standard of liability to Parler which is forbidden under Section 230 and acting as their own court in doing so.
And when they behead your own people in the wars which are to come, then you will know what this was all about.

Amazon really isn't in a position to go playing "whataboutism"
The libs/dems of today are the Quislings of former years. The cowards who would vote a fraud into office in exchange for handouts from the devil.

THE ESTABLISHMENT IS THE PROBLEM...NOT THE SOLUTION

IIRC AWS and GoDaddy are partners in web hosting. 

It would be interesting to see who exactly they hose versus who they want to kick off their servers.
