    I'm guessing he was removed because he said something shocking and unfathomable to decent people, right?

    Back in the day we used to just change the channel.
    So it's ok to refuse to do business with a gay couple, because "liburty", but YouTube should be forced to host a man who's claimed the government runs a pedophile ring on Mars and has literally ruined lives with his false flag claims?

    For example, the baker, if they don't want to bake that cake for the gay couple then that is their right.  It is not the right of the couole to have a cake made for them.  They could go to another baker.  Nobody has a right to force another person into an association, nobody has the right to another person's labor or services.

    Obviously tech attempt to influence an election.  Will they silence left sites that have foreign funding?
    How does shutting down Alex Jones influence an election? All Trumpers are morons that think Sandy Hook was a false flag and Mars is a pedophile farm and get their information from Alex Jones?

    Yawn.  

    In case you haven't caught on I haven't stated otherwise.  The argument is that these tech companiea are trying to influence an election by silencing one side even though another is also doing the same thing.

    Let me know when the baker take millions from a loser like Soros.

    I don't care if fb wants to ban anyone, but apply the standards to everyone, not just one side.

    I am so clear on this that your trumper hurt feeling is showing.  Sore losers never win.

    Apply the same standards universally.

    Deflection? You're losing it this morning bro lol

    I just want to know how shutting down a disgusting conspiracy profiteer is influencing an election? Is infowars a source of news, information, and coordination for republican/conservative/right wing voters? Enlighten me

    I have already stated why.  It isn’t just Alex Jones that gets deleted.

    Candace Ownes was deleted from Twitter for a period because she substituted Jews and Blacks for Whites in copying that new NY Times editors racist tweets.  Meanwhile the NY Times keeps her employed.

    So it is ok for hate speech if it is against whitey.  You’ll get a top level job at a huge newspaper.  You can call a black woman a white supremacist and be ok.

    But if you are a shock jock you get banned.  If you sub Jew or Black for White you get suspended.  

    Democrats are the real racists.

    I actually understand what you are saying, if you are going to uphold your policy then be fair and do it to everyone who is in violation.  Just don't pick and choose because you don't like their political background.

    Let me know when the Koch brothers or Adelson or any other smattering of conservative billionaires want to start competing versions of twitter and facetard. Then they can spew as much as they want and block those evil liberals from posting alternative views. For someone who claims they don’t listen, Follow or participate, you sure do care an awful lot.

    Off the top of my head, I can't think of the "liberal" or "left" equivalent to Alex Jones that should be getting banned. Either one of you know or is this just a generic whataboutism?
    It's a hopeless situation...

    I stated that "I actually understand what you are saying"; I was trying to explain unsung thinkings a little better (tell me if I am wrong Unsung). I know nothing about info wars and could care less if it is banned or not.  I hope that if a liberal/left group does the same thing as infowars that they ban them as well.

    Completely unrelated to infofars  I do find it a little bit disturbing/perplexed that the editor in question that was recently hired by the New York Times is still employed by them based on her past tweets.
