Have just banned Alex Jones. I don't much care for Alex Jones as a personality. He's an egomaniac and talks a lot of crap in my honest opinion. Though he's sometimes correct on certain points and his platform has welcomed guests I do have time for when the mainstream media has all but blacklisted them for speaking their conscience.  



This is a dangerous precedent and conservatives, libertarians, free speech advocates, and just plain independents are under attack.



We are on the verge of a purge.



I'm no longer going to use these companies for anything now.



I'd rather use duckduckgo and a safe purchased email service. I'll never buy another Android or Apple phone. Social media companies can continue not having me registered with them.



I've tuned out from so much over the last 10 years. Everything from terrestrial tv broadcasts to having the radio on in the car. Obviously I will have to go further and get satellite service and a decent shortwave base station.



I resent what's happening to society at the hands of emboldened progtards and it's time to do what I can to punish them in my small little ways.



I encourage all of you to do what you can to punish them. This crap shouldn't be happening in a free society.



Fck them!      acc_devil
Blahhhhhh...

Chuck Bronson

Although I am no fan of his (I'm the last guy that would buy into conspiracy theories), this does seem a little over the top, especially considering the fact that they all seemed to turf him at around the same time.

I agree completely. They're trying to decide what we can watch, listen to, and read. It's a declaration of war.

They've been doing that since the beginning of media, but it seems lately they've been taking it to the next level.



However, as long as you publicly hate whites, especially straight white males, they probably have a job opening for you!

About time you caught up.



I've been using DuckDuckGo for over a year and won't use anything Google. How can Apple or Spotify ban him?

Bricktop

OK. Just saw it on the news.



His podcasts were pulled down from Apple and Spotify.



Not good.

I used it years ago but hated it. No choice now.
Blahhhhhh...

DuckDuckGo is fine ... but moot on a large scale as the problem here is that most people use the other ones listed and will continue to do so



As previously said, this guy is a loser but that is not the point ... the point is censorship of ALL not prog



I just DuckDucked "anti progressive websites" and results were mixed some  . . many sites should not have shown up ... "Liberal Blogs | List of Progressive News and Opinion Websites / The Best Liberal Blogs Online " in #2  slot in fact



3rd slot = How to Win a Fight with a Conservative, By Daniel Kurtzman. Research the cause, know your enemy. Links to other sites.

Bricktop

DuckDuck ain't perfect...but it ain't Google.



I wish I could disconnect from Facebook. Too many family members to communicate with.

cc

Ya. I was not knocking it. It helps actual users. Merely saying it won't effect the overall fake news and especially censorship

Not yet...but surely the message is getting across that these monopolies do not exist in anyone's interest but their own.

I'm Not a big fan of Alex Jones, but banning?  As if there wasn't already enough out there, this is more leftist tyranny.
