    —@kevinroose nails it. This seems to be one of main reasons why social media companies have been reluctant to enforce their standards when it comes to Jones/InfoWars https://www.nytimes.com/2018/08/10/technology/facebook-banned-infowars-now-what.html …pic.twitter.com/xCQD8771WN

        Yep . And if you won't enforce your standards and hold accountable the people who have influence -- then face it, you don't really have standards, you are just pretending to have standards.

        Activist? Really? He's defended himself twice now by saying that no reasonable person would believe him. What's his cause?

        So it’s not even just about the money? They are simply cowards? Glad I didn’t waste money on Sheryl Sandberg’s sanctimonious Lean In book.

        Wrong. They caved to cancerious snowflakes like yourself who can’t bear being proved wrong and held accountable, so you silenced him. Hitler would be proud of you

        But yet...? InfoWars remains. Twitter's CEO should fold up his tent and resign. Plain & simple!

        If hate speech is a reason to close down accounts on social media, then there is no social media.

        Bull. Infowars/Alex Jones r not news, r not news orgs, & they push lies. And should be shunned. This isn't a free speech issue but a stop giving platform to lies issue.

        Do it to @benshapiro and I guarantee they'd get AME blowback since they don't apply the rules equally. For example, @sarahjeong is still on this platform even after her REAMS of racist, bigoted tweets. @LouisFarrakhan is ALSO on this platform even after his anti-semitic tweets.
