It's as simple as that...a dying breed indeed!

It's not for not trying. The left HAVE tried to succeed in political talk radio shows. Their young audience is too busy out in the streets rioting and attacking Trump supporters to take time to listen.

He corrected it a good while back I believe. I don't keep up with him as well as you do maybe?

No surprise you don't know the difference between censorship and following the rules of membership.

Sounds like an exclusionary platform to me.

Facebook and YouTube are private companies. How about I walk into your place of business and start spouting off crazy conspiracy theories? Would that be OK, or would you be within your rights as the owner of a business to ask me to leave?

It's just another example of the right's most consistent quality: HYPOCRISY
Seriously. And second would be their complete inability to recognize it.

I don't see losing Alex Jones as much of a loss even for him. He craves being censored with the news reporting on it, so he can get more attention that he's out there. More people than ever will want to know what other people don't want them to see.

You accused me of purposefully leaving out the fact that he finally admitted he was wrong. Because you believe that he did--"a good while back" (when?).

I generally look things up before I comment on them. Just because I believe something doesn't make it true.

It's hard to watch it all.

Do you recall who's been silenced?

All I've heard about is Alex Jones. Is this happening a lot?

So private companies can exclude whoever they want as long as they're not refusing to cover birth control or bake a cake?


Got it.
