Amazon Hypocrisy

Amazon deplatformed the social media site Parler supposedly for publishing violent content.

In its policy statement, the on-line mega vendor states, “Amazon does not allow products that promote, incite or glorify hatred, violence, racial, sexual or religious intolerance or promote organizations with such views. We’ll also remove listings that graphically portray violence or victims of violence.”

But Amazon is far from consistent in how it applies its policy. A recent survey by the Media Research Center found 270 items for sale that “promote, incite or glorify hatred, violence, racial, sexual or religious intolerance or promote organizations with such views.”

Here are a few celebrating Left-wing political violence.

In 2019, the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) asked Amazon to take down bath mats that were imprinted with words from the Prophet Muhammed. Yet items that may be seen as blasphemous to Christians and Catholics are still up on the platform. The ones I’ve pictured are mild. One I looked at was so vile, I refuse to reproduce it here (though I did include the URL below).

    They throw their arbitrary actions and judgements in your face, O ye who object, so you will know helplessness in the face of their arbitrary power and despair. They are ignorant, full of resentment, fear, and malice; They have no relief from the agony of cooking in their own ofal. Tear your attention away and seek out The Holy.

    AA’s First step toward release from your bondage, is to acknowledge your inadequacy to free your self from from your chains of addiction.
    ” We admitted we were powerless over alcohol —
    that our lives had become unmanageable.”

    Here are 3 translations of Jesus’ 1st Beatitude —
    KJ – “Blessed are the poor in Spirit: for their’s is the kingdom of heaven.”
    NEB – ” How blest are those who know their need of God; the kingdom of Heaven is theirs. ”
    Peterson’s The Message Bible – “You’re blessed when you’re at the end of your rope. With less of you there is more of God and his rule. ”

    The Lord is my shepherd.
    I shall want for nothing.

    Peace and rest are ours who
    rest in the loving arms of The Holy.
    Remember ::: In the world,
    But not of it —————
