can they at least kill the white liberal who has kept them enslaved in urban decay for 70 years?

SO IT BEGINS YouTube + Facebook just banned Inforwars. Infowars content is idiot trash, but this pushes us further down a scary road. Did we consent to a corporatocracy that gets to decide what ideas can and can’t be heard? This is how corporate fascism gets sold to the masses.

WikiLeaks Retweeted Paul Joseph Watson

The empire strikes back: Apple, Spotify, Facebook and Google/Youtube all purge Infowars/Alex Jones. Yes, Infowars has frequent nonsense, but also a state power critique. Which publisher in the world with millions of subscribers is next to be wiped out for cultural transgression?https://twitter.com/PrisonPlanet/status/1026495668263837696 …

Infowars is the tip of a giant iceberg of hate and lies that uses sites like Facebook and YouTube to tear our nation apart. These companies must do more than take down one website. The survival of our democracy depends on it.

The ruling elite, with the lead being taken by the liberal authoritarians are conditioning public to accept censorship by going after dubious sites like Alex Jones. Don't fall for it. Defend human right to information because ultimately the left is the real target.

Good @mtaibbi article on the dangers of Silicon Valley giants being able to unite to vaporize people from the internet, and the irrationality of cheering for it simply because you happen to hate their first target https://www.rollingstone.com/politics/politics-features/facebook-censor-alex-jones-705766/ …pic.twitter.com/TB60yODRLB

  • Leftists used to recognize without much difficulty that - ethics and the like aside - nothing strengthens fascists and neo-fascists more than censorship. It turns them into martyrs, draws more attention and appeal to them. Every fascist group I've ever known loved being censoredpic.twitter.com/7gZ4NwqbXw



  • Here, from Manufacturing Consent, is more Chomsky on the need to defend the right of even the most pernicious views - from Nazism to Holocaust denial - to be freely expressed. He wasn't just talking about state sanctions, but the basic principles of free expression & discourse:pic.twitter.com/FQqpdIvnDy


  • All that said, conservatives - who have long insisted private companies are free to do what they want & disassociate themselves from ideas they find offensive (baking gay cakes) - have zero basis to complain about Silicon Valley censorship unless they agree they're monopolies.
