Whether or not your (that is Parler's) statements or Amazon's statements are correct are issues of fact to be adjudicated in the litigation.
From a practical standpoint, your opinion (and mine for that matter, which I haven't expressed for this reason) is irrelevant.
As such, it seems to me that all we can really say is that the judge's refusal to grant the TRO (given the tests[0] applied in deciding such things) while not dismissing the case outright, isn't a positive development for Parler.
Further, the judge's ruling appears to have questioned the legal basis for Parler's claims. That doesn't bode well for them either.
All that said, claiming that one side or the other is factually correct without having all the evidence seems both biased and premature.
I'll wait until the truth comes out. Because in the end, it always does.
