It must be nice to be a mind reader.
I don't care about Parler or crazy righ-wingers. I just care about the inconsistency with which these big platforms seems to be acting and so far I haven't seen anything provide a proper explanation for why Parler and not some of the other social networks out there.

There is explanation - both in this thread and in Amazons response to lawsuit which is public.
You don't care about fairness, you are just trying to convince people that there was inconsistency - by ignoring massive differences between how the two platforms operated. Parler was acting differently then Twitter.
Am I getting your argument right?
Parler was the most gratuitous because:
1. They had a combination of very tight censorship of dissenting voices, and complete laissez-faire for violent and racist rhetoric as long as it was right wing.
2. It was used to organize a violent and very public revolution against the United States of America, which resulted in five deaths.
You almost certainly knew all these things already. The likely reason you are supporting Parler in this comment is because you agree with their political stance.
