Hang pence was started by good people on both sides and it was taken down shortly after, 14k tweets its not that much tbh. Stop spreading lies.


What lie is it that you think I'm spreading? Where am I factually incorrect?

Everything Amazon brought to Parler's attention was taken down. Meanwhile, "hangpence" trended on Twitter with 14,000 Tweets No such action was taken with Twitter. Meanwhile, AWS had a contract that required a 30 day notice to terminate, they gave less than 30 hours, and they shared the notice with the media over an hour BEFORE sending it to Parler.

We're not saying he's banned. He shared a screen shot showing he couldn't access the page, not that the page was down. And they lied when they stated "multiple offenses."


Sounds like the free market at work. The people want Parler to go away, so they are using their rights to pressure platforms.

Didn’t read your idiotic rant.


Yeah you did. Why even go out of your way to lie? You could have just not responded and that would have been more effective. JFC it's like I am dealing with the world's angriest amateurs here

A lot of eminently reasonable people seem to be very disturbed by this power grab. Unelected oligarchs deciding which politicians can or can't be listened to online is obviously net new ground.

Breach of contract =/= free market.

Did Hawley, Cruz, or the 139 House members get banned from Twitter? Or the guy who most blatantly incited an insurrection?

By lies i mean that apparently the same mob that got Parler suspended, came to Twitter to spread their message of love and unity with VP Pence and you are coming here outraged why Twitter got away with it? Is that correct?

If the public pressures them enough they will take the hit in court to break the contract. That's still free market.
