To all other conservative news outlets - you are next.
Well ain't that prophetic of you, Paul. Eat shit. This has nothing to do with conservatives and everything to do with the aggressive and hurtful conspiratory bullshit these asswhipes continue to spew. Nothing of value was lost.
Because they're hypocrites.
Update, Disqus has joined in. Comments on Infowars and Prisonplanet are now broken

They could very easily, is the thing. Twitter was banning people making fun of elon musk

All alex has to say is, he was making up that conspiracy stuff because he had giant hot bowls of chili beforehand.
And they can take it all.
His empire of dirt.
He will let you down.
He will make you hurt.
Also the song was originally by Nine Inch Nails, so the actual credit for the lyrics goes to Trent Reznor.
"lul so let's hurr confirm all the conspiracies"
jesus they're dumbasses ain't they
I think silencing someone like this on monopolistic platforms is problematic as all fuck even if every word Jones has ever said is bullshit. I still can't support it, and still can't believe as many people do
Some people really need to stop the disingenuous and obnoxious argument that being against this decision to remove Alex Jones from these platforms means people like me are "supporting/defending Alex Jones". It's not so much the removal of Alex Jones in particular we take issue with, it's the implications and consequences a decision like this could bring. Like do you really trust big Silicon Valley executives to really fairly and benevolently define what "hate speech" is? That corporations and 1%'ers won't influence companies like Google and Facebook to silence voices they don't like, either banning them or saying said voices are "fake news" (i.e. anyone who critiques their companies, anyone who exposes some injustice by the company, any non-establishment political candidate, etc.)?
Of all things, I found a youtube comment that very succinctly puts into perspective the problem with this:

Social media is simply too big and too powerful to use the "private company" excuse. It's honestly time for platforms like Facebook to be treated as public utilities and regulated as such.
Twitter banned some Nazis

I love the memes surrounding alex jones and I wish he was still around on youtube for people to keep milking lolclips from him.
Reminder: every single word PJW says about Alex Jones is a conflict of interest because Alex is literally his boss.
This is all free publicity for Alex Jones... he's going to seem like forbidden fruit because of the banning. Ack.
Lmao yet tons of people are banned for fucking nothing
What makes mcinnes a nazi?
Eh Nazi might not be the right word, the Proud Boys are classed as a general hate group by SPLC but they're far-right and very close to actual Nazis

Do You Want Bigots, Gavin? Because This Is How You Get Bigots
Who are the Proud Boys, 'western chauvinists' involved in politi..
Thanks, I didn't see this stuff when I searched
I mean, it feels like the only difference between white supremacists and Nazis is that white supremacists don't always have a massive obsession with jews - they just hate all non-white races equally.
Guys, we can't just start letting the police arrest and lock up criminals. Don't you think that's a little too much power? What if they just start arresting anyone?
If 'crime' is not defined and entirely at the whims of the police to enforce, who do so for political reasons, then yes that's a completely legitimate thing to be concerned about. What a terrible attempt at downplaying the issue.
