    I know Alex Jones is a crackpot who violated the terms of his contracts.

    Attacking the families of slain children isn't free speech. It is harassment and defamation of victims of a terrible crime. And he is being sued for his defamation.

    You didn't send me any link.

    Are you kidding me? Do you know how many channels are devoted to flat earth?

    So you don't like his content therefore it must be banned?

    Proof that Google didn't single him out? A tiny shred would be nice. Clearly they did.

    He is harassing the victims of a mass shooting. He nearly got someone shot at a pizza parlor. And you compare that to flat earthers? Who have they attacked lately?

    And the hypocrisy is especially obvious when you support denying service to someone because of their lifestyle. You are all about the right to refuse service until you don't.

    And his freedom of speech isn't being denied, only service from a company. He can stand on his roof and howl at the moon all night. There is his freedom of speech.

    Nobody is silencing them, alex jones/morning schmo still have every right to say what they want.

    Its not because alex jones cant do his rants while in a restaurant he is being denied his fredom of speech. An owner has every right to kick out a disruptive customer . Plenty of platforms Jones can turn to or he can start one himself.

    He can open his own website and howl at the moon. He can make a deal with the Daily Stormers.

    You do realize that you took one word " bacteria" out of context and you built an accusation about me around it. Why not be honest and proove your accusations against Mr?. As an immigrant and a refugee I have been attacked by people and the first time it was when I was kindergarten age. A woman crossed over from accross the street from one of those houses turned into a "church" she was carrying a Bible she yelled at me a kid for being a DP ( Displaced Person). She told me that I need to go back to where I came from. She said that we steal American jobs and rents.

    You just blamed Democrats for all racism ethnic hatred and that kind of stuff. What does any of this have to do with Democrats? What that hatefilled woman a Democrat? Who knows. She was a "church goer" and appeared to be religious. I hear from people here who hate Democrats claim that Democrats are anti Christian so how could she be a Democrat? I do not know what her politics were. What I do know is she was a hater.

    You do not know my background or history. Both of my grandfathers were sent to Siberia and only one returned. I had members of my extended family executed by the invading Russians for resisting collectivization. There were 6-8 million of my ethnic group murdered by Russians in a genocide. So am I going to cheer for Russia? Come on man be serious.

    You made a blatant accusation those Democrats are racist hate immigrants hate and all ethnic groups. Really what ethnic group are Democrats?

    So you left the Democratic Party so did I. I Leigh for a reason that I can proove- runaway liberalism. You claim racism but have no proof.

    According to that logic, this is a fascist forum, as is every forum that has rules about what can and cannot be posted . . . which is all forums.

    Good riddance the Democratic party doesn't need someone who doesn't even know basic history. Your post is factually and historically wrong.

    I don't believe the premise of this thread. Infowars isn't being banned anywhere on any platform. Clearly its all a hoax and Alex Jones is a crisis actor.

    Yep...
    The problem is...the radical right want their so called news from crazy and unreliable sources. There seems so be an addiction aspect to conspiracy theories and fake news.

    You're absolutely correct. This isn't a 1a question. I just find the whole liberal approach of silencing opinions they don't agree with fascinating.

    I doubt liberals had anything to do with this (then I am talking about politicians) .

    Jones was pushing it beyond what youtube and facebook could allow, their rules are quite strickt and normally very quickly enforced. Plenty of people get channels blocked for a lot less.
    Jones (no doubt because he was known and got a lot of viewers) was able to stay long beyond what a regular user would have been allowed.

    I hesitate to call him the "right", he is just one of the fringe loonies, no matter where you find them.

    Way to fly off the cliff, rob.

    No, I don't think everything outside my world is conspiracy, but what exactly do you call the "Russian collusion" conspiracy theory that the crackpots in the LW MSM have been pushing for the past 1 1/2 years?

    At one time I was a Democratic Party precinct election judge. At one time, this country was a Democratic majority.

    In the last election, this county went 81% for Trump - and the countries to the North and South of this was that high or higher. This is a key swing state. Entering this city from 1 of the 2 main highways was like entering Trump Disneyland for the huge Trump billboards on both sides of the road - one side is our property. From there it was an ocean of signs, banners and bumperstickers for Trump. In the entire country there was 1 anti-Trump sign and none for Clinton. No one bothered the anti-Trump sign.

    So, what did you do for Clinton?

    I agree. Not long ago Jones was a hero to many on the Left for peddling the 9/11 Troofer conspiracy theory that was popular amongst the progs who opposed Bush and the "War on Terror".

    how is he harassing the victims of a mass shooting by saying it was a hoax that isn't harassment. Also how did he nearly get someone shot at a pizza parlor was he shooting a gun?

    number one I don't support that so don't tell false stories. And if a florist refuses to serve you that's different than the oligopoly that is Google refusing to serve you. 1 curtails your Liberty the other means you have to walk to a different florist.

    again yet another thing I didn't say but you're arguing against anyway.

    Sure Google is the company but it is an oligopoly. If they refuse uaccess to their services then it does place a heavy burden on you.

    If they wanted to just ban people they didn't like for Imaginary harassment or nearly getting someone shot at a pizza parlor whatever the f*** that means then they shouldn't have bought up everything.

    but he can't go to a competitor because there isn't one.

    So what? If you can't cope with their terms of service, start your own.

    It may be long in the tooth but it certainly isn't without merit. Only 1/3 of Americans share your unquestioning trust in the MSM:

    This is consistent with a Gallup poll taken the year before that which showed that only 1/3 of Americans trust the MSM to accurately report anything.

    Americans' Trust in Mass Media Sinks to New Low
    https://news.gallup.com/poll/195542/americans-trust-mass-media-sinks-new-low.aspx

    Not surprisingly it's continuing to sink...

    Oh, so you're blissfully unaware of The New York Times retracting stories, Brian Ross getting suspended and CNN editors and reporters resigning? Why don't you Google all that yourself and get back with me about your paragons of accurate and objective reporting.

    By the way, here's another thing you may be unaware of - it's her job to control exactly what you think:
