I don't follow, nor listen to Alex Jones, but it's wrong to stop him from sharing his views on social media.
Are @facebook, @AppleNews and @YouTube wrong to remove #AlexJones from their platforms?

Here we have the slippery slope. I do not endorse, nor do I agree with
#AlexJones, as he seems to be only a flamethrower, doing little to advance conservatism in a positive way. However, one must now ask the question, "Who's next?" Banning political speech is the way of tyranny.Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

Yes it's wrong, and I too despise Alex Jones. However, I don't think it's censorship, their a private company. I think just because you can do something doesn't mean you should do it. It's hypocrisy when you leave equally offensive DBs on. Shows a lack of ethics. Just a$$hole-ish

Incorrect. If they allow free access 2 a multi billlion$ political platform 4 the globalist radical left yet deny the same political platform 4 conservatives or libertarians, then this is 1 of the largest cases of campaign violations in US history. Dissouza went 2 jail 4 only 10k

Yes, even though I completely condemn with what he has to say and believe that Infowars is a dumpster fire.

Nope, it’s theirs, No Shirt, No Shoes, No Service

That is a standard of dress and not a violation of civil rights. Corps selling a service based on speech, with massive market share, have to follow US Law / respect the civil rights of US Citizens. Suggesting otherwise is willful ignorance. Antitrust laws apply.

So getting kicked off YouTube would be a violation of my civil rights. I don’t think I have the right to post negative or positive messages of my opinion on someone else’s business platform. But I could be wrong ... maybe

Do you think Corporations are above the law and can discriminate at their own discretion? Discrimination based on political beliefs is real and actionable.
-
No I don’t think they above the law and they shouldn’t but the do and will continue to. It’s their platform
-
So what it is their platform. That is not a licence to discriminate based on politics.

These companies are near monopolies, and workong together. This isn't a small business cutting service. This is Stalinism. If tyranny hits America this power would be leveraged to circumvent the 1st amendment in a heartbeat. A fascist regime would have no problem using this pwr

It's a private company. If you agree with this then
@realDonaldTrump Should unblock everyone he is blocking etc etc etc. Maybe@infowars should stop peddling in pizzagate and sandy conspiracies. The man was selling his products when he went live after this. -
No, they are public corporations that have a choke hold on information sharing. They arent acting independently either. They all acted together within 12 hours. Still see plenty of conspiracy crap on YouTube, app store, and google play. They all specifically focused on Jones,
-
And I am not a fan of his. It is a terrifying slippery slope to let these big corporations decide who is real or fake news. It isn't like the MSM are bastions of honesty.
-
I also dont like that Trump blocks people, but how many were blocked for threats of violence? How many for legit reasons? How many for snark? I don't know. So I cant judge. Jones is pretty antiviolence even with his amped up rhetoric.
