It wouldn't surprise me at all if that were the case.



Remember what Orwellian  senate democrat Chris Murphy said-- we need MORE censorship: 'Survival of our democracy depends on it'

This is a turning point for our nation. Will you rally behind the principles of free speech, or will you concede to having your ability to access new ideas and information restricted and controlled by those who believe you cannot think for yourself?



If we allow this level of censorship to continue, how long before it becomes normalized?



How long before it's not Alex Jones and Infowars being shut down on major platforms, but any ideology that disagrees with the establishment status quo? We must rally behind the principles that founded this great nation, and not allow deep censorship to become normalized and accepted.

Whether any speaker is right or  not on occasion, the right to speak is what's at stake today

Then again, never forget that these are private entities, and they can make their own rules as they go along.  The media always has.



What is really problematic, in my view, is publicly funded entities like the CBC, which take on the same left-wing slant, but to the tune of one BILLION dollars per year of taxpayers money.



Private entity does what it wants, and always has, but we should really be asking why our taxes pay for that same slant...

I wouldn't object if there was a real marketplace of ideas in social media, but of course there is not.

Quote from: "Blazor"This is strange, as I thought Alex was ex CIA and was merely giving some truths while trying to disinfo the public.



But if not, this is NOT good at all! I believe last year is when I was noticing more and more taken off google that I once had no problem finding. All this was after Trump got elected, and they wanted to cut off the public's access to truths, since he won.


Alex Jones is/was almost certainly controlled opposition, he gives out a sprinkle of truth to the masses to satisfy their curiosity and then spouts a load of bs to send them up the garden path. Naturally he's extremely hostile towards those who expose the J's, did you watch his interview with David Duke?  :laugh:



It is odd that he's been pulled considering that he is on the tamer side of the alt right.  It seems like a case of the far left, which let's be honest, Google, Youtube etc is no doubt choc full with closet Commies, flexing their collective muscle and doing what the left does best, teaming up to oppose and freeze out anything they don't like.



I have no doubt he'll be back, probably with more listeners and a bigger fanbase than ever.

It's the same with the BBC in the UK, the tax payer funds their far left propaganda under the guise of the license fee.



It's one of the worst legalised scams in this country, and believe me, there are plenty....

Alex Jones is just the first  of many to come.  There will be more.



The old school liberal view was "If we don't believe in freedom of speech for people we despise, then we don't believe in it at all" -Noam Chomsky



the new leftist prognazi view is--"if you disagree with us we will try to shut you up by any means necessary"



It has never been more clear--Prognazis are the enemy of free speech. Other than perhaps the right to vote, freedom of speech is the most important right separating democracy from totalitarian dictatorship, which is exactly where we are headed if these people get their way.
