No surprise there.

Constitutionally, Americans have a right to free speech, but they don’t have the right to someone else’s platform to express it.

Wrong.

When those platforms enjoy the same protections against liability under the DMCA that cell phone providers have, you'd better believe we've got a right to engage in legal free speech.

These platforms are at this point daring President Trump and Congress to break them apart.

“These platforms are at this point daring President Trump and Congress to break them apart.”

I don’t think that will happen. We’ll see.

So many businesses have caved to lefty outrage thugs, it’s getting hard to keep track of who to boycott. So far, that’s all I’ve done...boycott and ignore them.

I already said on this thread that I’m not a fan of Rubio. I’ve been a Trump supporter since before it was cool.

Not the point. First they came for Jones, but I didn’t care because I thought he was a grade A a-hole. Then they thought the same about, Rush, Hannity, Savage, ingraham, and banned them,but I didn’t care cuz I don’t watch or listen to them. Then they fund out my political leanings, and they banned me. But no one will listen to me bitch about it, because They labeled me a grade A a-hole and now there’s no place to complain.

What part of Freedom of Speech don’t you get?

Me too. I was with him from one of his first rallies in Sarasota FL in 2015.

I agree that Alex Jones is a grade A a-hole. Far worse than his stupid badgering of Rubio was his insane physical harassment of Michelle Malkin.

Here’s obese hulking Jones physically harassing and trying to intimidate 90-lb Malkin. Completely out of control and unhinged, scumbag Jones eggs on his mob of basement dwellers. “Get Michelle Malkin!” “Don’t Let her leave!”

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UQMgllS413Q&t=142s

What a sorry excuse for a “man”.

Beyond physically harassing women, he of course, goes on to call the parents of dead kids “actors” and to say that their dear children never existed, that they were “fake”

I have more respect for what I left in my toilet this morning than I do for Jones.

That said, I don’t think he should be censored by a corporate conspiracy to kick him off of social media. Let his own awfulness find its level in the marketplace of ideas.

“That said, I don’t think he should be censored by a corporate conspiracy to kick him off of social media. Let his own awfulness find its level in the marketplace of ideas.”

Do you see any circumstance on Twitter or elsewhere that should or could cause a person to be rightfully banned? If so, what? Not talking about Jones specifically, just trying to get a sense of what his supporters think ought to not be allowed.

I would of course never call myself an Alex Jones “supporter”.

I oppose his censorship as a censorship-opponent / free-speech advocate.

As far as banning folks from social media - I think I would use established free speech law regarding things like direct calls to violence, obscenity, communicating threats, support for designated terrorist groups and criminal organizations. Not much else.

As awful as Jones is, I don’t know that he’s done any of those things online, so I don’t see a legit reason to ban him.

We will have to disagree that weight is NO detriment to health.

honestly, when I met him at the inauguration in 2017, I thought he was on some sort of stimulant. In person he seemed somewhat incoherent and unfocused, it’s possible he didnt sleep well, but at the time I had asked him why he didn’t attend Cernovich’s DeploraBall party the night before, he informed me they wouldn’t let he and Roger Stone in... so they went back to their hotels.

The man keeps an unbelievable schedule, and has unbelievable endurance.

He can “clean & Jerk” over 300 lbs.
