Alex Jones has used YouTube as a platform to commit libel (calling Robert Mueller a pedophile, calling Sandy Hook parents actors and the death of their children a hoax, etc) for a long time now and they removed him from it. 1/2

Other content hosting sites also banned Jones, within hours of each other. I find it likely they've wanted to for while, but were fearing this sort of backlash from an audience which drove the parents of school shooting into hiding. 2/3

This had caused many to claim the death of free speech, despite these bans being enacted by non-public entities. It's apparently fine for business owners to not sell wedding cakes to gays, but not ok to prevent a user from slandering people.

This is nothing like forcing someone to bake a special cake. Forcing someone to bake a wedding cake is actually a violation of the first amendment, as much as disagree with the discrimination against LGBTQ. This wasn’t a question of selling a prebaked cake.

Refusing service based on someone's sexuality or any other extraneous factor is a major problem, though. Imagine if we said doctors could do this (there are some things written up now that would allow for this, based on religious objection), wouldn't that be awful?

It’s a difficult problem, overall, but fortunately there is a strong distinction. A doctor treating someone is not compelled speech, unlike making a particular cake with a message. I must stress that he should have baked the cake in my morality, but I’m against compelled speech.

I don't think anyone should be forced to do a commission based job for a client if they don't want to, either, I just think the excuse commonly used in this scenario is lame.
