Alex Jones and the coming Witch Hunt

Because private companies can do what they want

How that works

-Skip and Chris can decide to allow the 9/11 thread to remain open.
-The head honchos at YouTube can decide they no longer want to provide a platform for Alex Jones

The end.

 

And the 9/11 conspiracy doesn't discredit the death and grief of all those involved. Or initiated harassment campaigns. And the censoring of an entire conspiracy is different than the censoring of a horribly twisted and violent individual.

 

All true. Censorship can only apply if you want it to. Doesn't have to be equal.

You're right. People can censor what and who they like.

AJ probably wouldn't have been censored if he didn't get such a big following. It's a bit different from HF that may influence maybe dozens. Still HF has openly censored others here.

It seems to be more the message it wishes to censor and not necessarily the principle of censorship and Freedom of Speech being applied equally.

Totally within their rights to do so. Hopefully you will agree when someone decides to censor what you'd want to hear. And you will support it

 

A conspiracy theory gets started by an individual. Who gets others to believe it. I have no idea the mental capacity of either party that started either theory. AJ was making a living with his.

 

"Patriot Prayer, a reactionary right-wing group best known for instigating. street. violence. in the. Pacific Northwest, traveled to Texas last weekend to protest Alex Jones’ expulsion from various social media platforms, including YouTube and Facebook, for repeated terms of service violations. The small demonstration failed to attract any local attention, but that didn’t stop a leading figure in Patriot Prayer from trying to pick a fight.

An Infowars livestream hosted by Owen Shroyer captured Tusitala “Tiny” Toese — who is an active member of the hate group the Proud Boys in addition to his prominence in Patriot Prayer — screaming at and threatening a small group of young African American men attending Austin’s Pecan Street Festival. According to Shroyer’s commentary, Toese went after them because they were wearing Obama hats.

After a poorly attended rally of about 60 to 70 people earlier in the day, which featured Alex Jones himself as a last-minute surprise guest, right-wing demonstrators took their signs, their message and a bullhorn to the Pecan Street Festival and began, as one organizer put it on Facebook, “trolling 6th” street. Soon after they arrived, Toese, Patriot Prayer leader Joey Gibson and others in the group began what appears in Shroyer's video to be an animated discussion with three young men. According to commentary in the video, demonstrators were upset by their Obama hats, which Shroyer insisted they wore on purpose “just to trigger you,” and they also objected to one man’s sweatshirt, which featured the name and likeness of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr."

"When two of the men retreat into the store behind them to escape the confrontation, Toese flies into a rage. “You think you a badass? You think you a badass? Get out here!” he yells. “Why you standing there like a little bitch? Bring your ass here, then! Let’s see, let’s see who the little bitch is!”

Gibson reached for Toese’s shoulder, and a demonstrator said, “We come in peace, guys,” but Toese thundered on.

“You won’t survive in my world, boy!” he roared. “You won’t survive in my world!”

“I’ll blow through your fuckin window!” he said, and then two police officers intervened and removed him from the fray." - SPLC

One of the most ironic things is this was caught on an infowars livestream, so they can't claim this as a George Soros conspiracy haha.

 

After Harassing Black Teens In Austin, Patriot Prayer is Coming to Providence, RI to Stand with White Nationalists - It's Going Down

"Several weeks ago in Austin, Texas, far-Right militia members, Trump supporters, Proud Boys, and fans of the far-Right conspiracy web site InfoWars, held a rally to “Free Alex Jones.” Ironically, Jones was not imprisoned, but had been removed from a variety of social media sites for his repeated statements that the Sandy Hook massacre was a staged “false flag,” carried out in order to take away people’s guns. The turnout was poor, with only about 60-70 people coming out, according to the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC), which was a pathetic mobilization considering that Jones began his career in Austin, growing from an office in town to a mass media empire, and still calls the city home.

People from across the country attended the rally, most notably the group Patriot Prayer from Washington, led by Joey Gibson, which has extensive cross over with the Proud Boys. It’s Going Down has written extensively about Patriot Prayer, Gibson, and the Proud Boys, but to make a long story short, the goal of Patriot Prayer is to build a big tent coalition with those on the far-Right, including white nationalists, neo-Nazis, and the Alt-Right, in order to build a street fighting force to attack social movements.

One of the most notorious members of Patriot Prayer who is also a member of the Proud Boys in the Washington State area, is “Tiny” Toese. In the past several months, Tiny has made headlines for attacking people randomly in public.

On May 11th, well known Patriot Prayer and Proud Boy members took part in an assault at the Vancouver, WA mall against an African-American youth of only 17 years. As the Portland Tribune wrote:

Then, less than a month later, the same individuals had found a new victim, this time, on the streets of Portland. As Maria Perez wrote in Newsweek:

It seems this racist pattern continued in Austin, Texas, because after the attendees of the Alex Jones got tired of listening to Tiny scream about how the British lost “their nuts,” and after Alex Jones made a very brief appearance and then quickly left, the crowd then decided to “troll” the local Pecan Street Festival. According to a report from the SPLC:

Tiny’s actions at the Pecan festival are extremely important to highlight, because they show that far from just wanting “free speech” or just the ability to hold their own rallies in peace, when left just to their own pathetic echo chamber, the far-Right goes looking for a fight.With no counter-protesters to stand up to them and keep them in a contained space, members of Patriot Prayer and the Proud Boys quickly found a group of young men of color to harass and surrounded and threatened them with violence. Such a reality cuts to the heart of why such people cannot be “left alone” as so many liberals contend – they only feel powerful as a movement when they are attacking “enemies,” especially those that they deem weaker than them. For Tiny, his thing seems to be young African-American boys.

Ironically, back in August, Joey Gibson stated on a livestream that he agreed with local bay area far-Right organizer Amber Cummings who refused to allow American Guard to conduct security at her event after being exposed by antifascists. He stated, “The founder is literally a Klan member.” Then, several days later, Tiny posted a photo of himself with the American Guard logo on his Facebook image, and most recently, has appeared on a livestream with neo-Nazi members of American Guard. Despite being non-white, Tiny has a long history of attempting to make friends with white nationalists, from calling up members of Identity Evropa to thank them for fighting along side Patriot Prayer, to wearing t-shirts made by neo-Nazis that promote Pinochet. This has always been a mutual relationship – white nationalists get to look multicultural, and a living sack of shit like Tiny gets to have “friends.”

Like always, the swindlers and dip shits of Patriot Prayer and the Proud Boys attempt to present themselves as non-racist and unwilling to form alliances with neo-Nazis, but when push comes to shove, they’re willing to fly halfway across the country to rally with them."

 

hes back again.. haha..

 

Noam Chomsky is the last true left wing liberal on earth. Prison Planet.com » Free Speech Icon Noam Chomsky Says Big Tech Was Wrong to Ban Infowars

 

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Even his ex thinks he's crazy

 

blowing a gasket..

 

Hammering Hammering Hammering... Stop the hammering ! Hammering Hammering Hammering STOP the Hammering !

 

Its all fake news that they are censoring only conservatives.

The Free Thought Project got censored too.

They are censoring anti authoritarians, from the right or left side of politics it doesn't matter.

 

Is that suck-ass motherfu---I mean , is the gentleman still relevant?

 

1:36:00
goof asses.. smh.

 

Try left wing anarchist.

 

Such an obvious point, rendering much of the debate on this thread a waste of time. Free speech absolutists may push for the ability of everyone to say anything they want, but even where protections against government restrictions are concerned, there have always been recognized limits: crying fire in a crowded theater, fighting words, libel, slander, etc.--the kinds of non-protected speech AJ traffics in. Where private companies are concerned, the decision is theirs to set limits on what others put out on their platforms. For example, Skip has decided that we can't engage in religious proselytizing and quote scripture on Hip Forums, possibly because past experience suggests that the opportunity to do so would open the door to what he considers to be abuse. Christians might want to debate that, but it's not an unreasonable policy. Those who want to proselytize or thump the Bible are free to find another platform, start one of their own, or go out on the street and start preaching. Same goes for AJ.

 

I knew he was what he claimed to be against when he said psychedelic drugs are from the Devil and part of the Illuminati. Everything he says is the opposite of the truth on this subject.

What effect does that have? Maybe scare people off from taking them.

No Alex a trip is good and science now shows how good it is for people. If people did smoke some DMT they would see though your lies and see all man is their brother. If they do that your fear low vibration ideas can not survive. It's actuly the Illuminati who want you stay away from DMT.

 

Wasn't his legal defense in the case where he lost custody of his kids that the stuff he says in character is so crazy no one would believe it?

 

I'd love to see the results of many , many people taking a good strong dose of LSD. The dipshit above, Trump and ALL republicans and democrats. These people --mostly--are totally unaware of how they are seen and perceived--by themselves.
