You're thinking of ems, not rems.

The deadline for mail-in ballots was not based on delivery time, it was based on postmark time.

So there is absolutely nothing wrong with a ballot arriving after 5PM November 5th, so long as it was postmarked before the cutoff.

So the laws were followed, no contradiction, just a selective lack of understanding by a group of bad actors.

Thats not whats happening here though is it?

Parler is violating the terms of service, AWS is asking for minimal level of moderation to avoid violating those terms, and they are refusing.

And the CEO of parler does tell people what they are allowed to write on Parler they remove so-called "leftist" content all the time.

If im running a website or service, why shouldnt I be allowed to remove content from it? Wouldnt a law thats preventing me from removing that content actually be a violation of my right to free speech?

AWS doesnt need to wait for a service to violate the law to remove it.

They have a TOS and policies like any other company. You can get kicked off AWS for much less than hosting a service that willfully turns a blind eye to domestic terrorism.

What existing law do you think prevents Amazon from removing Parler?

Uh no, companies very much get decide how to moderate the platforms they own.

What law is it that prevents Amazon from booting Parler exactly?

Why do you feel that they should be held to the same standard?

Violent content is a tiny of percentage of twitter, but a huge part of parler. Twitter also does moderate their platform, Parler refuses to.

One of these obviously has a bigger problem with violent content than the other.
