    That's a very non-specific blanket statement.

    You may need to update. Last time I looked they were publicly owned. Anyone can buy a piece if they like.

  4. Canadian Bacon is a funny man and it trying to pivot away as he does not like that point.

    When do we go back to, Cain in the bible? The first "liberal" in your mind? Retard.

    There is a line, though Tim Cook let it go for a long time & longer than he should have but there is a line when you just puke.

    False equivalence by the shitty stick cowardly lion trader from Canada who can't get his story straight about how long he has traded for (who was in tears because people 'use his past against him' :) What the fuck is wrong with being from Canada? Anyone who is ashamed of his origin like this is a sick puppy.

    Jones picked on this bunch quite likely as there were no military families in the group? I have not looked but I'd expect this was part of his checklist when he chose to make them his targets. For financial gain, he clearly said in the divorce case he runs an entertainment show.

    "The parents of a 6-year-old victim of the Sandy Hook shooting have been forced to move homes seven times and now live hundreds of miles from their son’s grave due to near constant harassment from conspiracy theorists who claim the deadly massacre was a hoax.

    Twenty small children and six adults were killed in less than five minutes on December 14, 2012, at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Connecticut, by 20-year-old killer Adam Lanza, who then turned the gun on himself."

    Seems these got special treatment because they were Jewish?

    I got it wrong it was 7 times.

    Twitter have given him a lifeline.

    We draw lines with the first amendment. There are limits. I suppose the Alex Jones thing has exceeded the limit. The problem is how to codify, who decides. Is it the 'no reasonable person test'?

    Banning Alex Jones must be because is a right-wing person. Not because he's a dangerous asshole.

    I know nothing of this story other than what I read here. I also know that when something doesn't sound right it probably isn't. I also know this is the age of disinformation. Put this together anyway you like.

    Welcome to the thread. We've discussed these points already. Feel free to browse the first few pages.

  9. I assume that is sarcasm.

    Jones attacked the innocent parents of murdered children. He has done as bad and worse in other incidents.

    This not not complicated. I expect that if he loses his case then the families have an opening to take a shot at the platforms and this is why they have acted now. They are acting out of self-interest, fear of legal consequences and nothing to do with left/right anything.

    You may need to update. While google is publicly traded, it's largest shareholders are the founders and individuals who run the company. Therefore, they have enough shares to do whatever they want with their company.

    While it is true anyone can buy a piece, buying a "piece" doesn't give you a say in anything.
