No lessons have been learned from Brexit or Trump 2016 apparently. The inflammatory rhetoric, censorship, division, and polarization continues.
he may be a piece of shit and the products he sells may be equally shitty but this is too much. at least they didn't slam the door shut and steal his money.
So this sets a really bad prescient. PayPal is famous for de-platforming for good, bad and unknown reasons, that is common knowledge. They banned InfoWarsStore.com, which hosts no InfoWars context whatsoever and only sells merchandise. The ban was for "hate speech" on the separate but related InfoWars site. The actual vendor site violated no TOS, but they just didn't like Alex Jones anymore so they looked for a reason to throw him under the bus. It's despicable.
Also, to everyone out there surprised by this, the Alt-Right has been having this happen to them non-stop for the last 2 years straight and were warning everyone this was coming. Very few heeded the warning. Prepare for far far worse.
Paypal is a bunch of faggots. In the good pro gay way... buncha faggots just the same. Yay AIDS!!!!!!!!!
They're just making him look like a martyr. If you want to stop his message let him shout his lunacy from the town square for all to see and critique.
The problem suppressing ideas/speech as opposed to critiquing/ridiculing it is that dulls our collective analytical muscles so when someone who is legitimately polarizing and dangerous comes along the populous will be too damn slow to realize it. This is how you get a new Hitler.
