Infowars And Alex Jones Banned On Multiple Online Platforms

[Devout Pessimist]

You vote conservative yeah? You support the party that brought us Citizen's United and no cakes for gays. This is the result.

You don't control Apple or Youtube or Facebook, but your belly aching makes it sound like you wish you did.

I live in Canada and I have never voted for the Conservative Party of Canada (until the next election when I vote against Trudeau).

That's why a lot of us were against net neutrality. Now that the right got rid of it their supporters want to cry about it. Trump did that, congratulations Trump supporters, this is what your man did you bunch idiots.

So worried about were trans people go pee they missed the real issues.

Okay. So it’s clear that you don’t understand that there can be state action if there is a symbiotic relationship between the government and FB, YT or Google. There is a straight faced argument that there is significant entanglement between the government and FB, YT and Google. It depends on how the Supreme Court feels that day if it is ever argued.

If there is state action through the symbiotic relationship, then the First Amendment applies and there is First Amendment protection on the websites that have pervasive entanglement with the government.

I’d look up “exceptions to state action” and maybe listen to an Erwin Chemerinsky lecture that deals with state action. I’m sure you can find one on YouTube.

It's clear you don't understand that google, facebook, ect. Aren't tired to the government as far as the internet and first amendment are concerned. Keep beating the war drums, even though this is what Republicans gave us with getting rid of net neutrality.

This is what people asked for.

>Private business can deny service to anyone for any reason or no reason at all.
>No one has a right to service from any private entity.
>Slash regulations on corporations.

There's a saying that goes "be careful what you ask for".

Let's remind ourselves this isn't the reality. The Civil Rights Act exists.

Enjoy him while you can, ISP bans on infowars is the next step the deep states plans to silence the truth giver.

I've watched steve be censored on his previous channel <Lmaoo> so enjoy your little victory while you can, you're getting the safe space you seem so desperate to want

Nonsense. If an Asian man had said the same things Sarah Jeong said, nothing would've happened to him either.

Depends on the man. Asians, overall, are not seen as a threat to any society, though. They are quite controllable.

The society itself is an organism and it rates its domestic threats according to a system of hierarchy, which is quite equal to that of the modern hierarchy of "victimhood" and "oppression" in PC terms.

The people on top of a progressive victim hierarchy, represent the lowest level of threat socially-speaking, and thus, are basically ignored by the modern society, and can largely go unrestricted in their speech and action. What appears to us as "double standards", are in actual rational calculations by the society to not pay any heed to actors that pose no threat the state's power (women, ethnic minorities, sexually confused people, disabled people etc., who will ultimately always be dependent on the state's continued existence, and its benevolence towards them).

The groups with the lowest levels of deemed victimhood, are among the least emasculated and the most capable to act against the state. Thus they must be victimized and restricted from freely operating, in order to decrease the threat they potentially represented.

Lol smdh. Seriously. Go read up on exceptions to state action. Go watch a lecture over constitutional law.

Read Burton v. Wilmington Parking Authority and tell me who had more of a symbiotic relationship with the government, Wilmington and the coffee shop or FB, YT or Google. Seriously go read it and tell me the court couldn’t find state action through entanglement with the government by FB, YT and Google.

For people that claim to like independent journalists its interesting to watch you guys celebrate as person after person complains about being censored, then censored, (and also arrested) - but it's all just a conspiracy

This has nothing to do with her being Asian. She received no punishment because she's not white.

Take your extensive knowledge and Sue google for violating his first amendment rights. Let me know how that turns out.

I wouldn’t have standing to assert someone else’s rights. You should know that, you were the one claiming to hand out internet law degrees, genius.

What does that mean?

If Sarah Jeong had been Steven Jeong, nothing would've happened to him.

If Steven Jeong had a history of lobbying for anti-establishment ideas, as well as a legitimate background of translating some of his words to action, he would have probably been done in.

This has nothing to do with her being Asian. She received no punishment because she's not white.

Obviously not, just like a white man in China wouldn't receive the same punishments as a Chinese person committing a speech offense in China. It's not the same thing.

The threat level of an ethnic minority, particularly that of a female belonging to such an ethnic minority, is extremely low compared to that of a male that belongs to the ethnic majority. Anti-government males belonging to ethnic majorities, is what cause revolutions to happen. I've not heard of a socially adjusted female belonging to an ethnic minority, ever causing a revolution to spark.

Now, of course, in America, we are supposed to think that the rules are to be applied universally, as that is one of the country's very foundations. But those foundations are becoming discredited as supra-national, corporate structures take the place of the American state and its centuries-long traditions, as the determiners of the rules for people's social interactions. It's no longer the American Constitution that serves as inspiration for people's heart and souls, but the corporate codes of conduct that they are subjected to, in order to grasp to their livelihoods.

Those supra-national structures simply don't give much of a damn about your American interpretations of "fairness" and "equal standards". The only thing they are worried about, is their bottom line. And that bottom line can be affected more by men like Alex Jones, than a Sarah Jeong, not merely because of their past activities, but also their ethnic/gender attributes.

You can bring a class action lawsuit on behalf of all those that have had their first amendment rights violate by Google or other social media platforms.

 

[all caps]

I'm now convinced this was all a ploy to get more people to subscribe to infowars directly. What happens when Trump puts the website over in a tweet? And then Jones can really go off the rails with no limits? That would be even worse

Yes, that's precisely the point. Those are reasons prohibiting denial-of-service.

Oh so you’re shrugging now about class actions after you were bragging about your legal acumen and calling others dumb? Keep digging.

But for your own legal edification, I’ll indulge you.

A class action probably wouldn’t work either and it would probably fail on the typicality requisite. Numerosity so great that it would make joinder impractical? Yeah. Got that. Questions of law or fact common to the class? Yeah. Probably. Typicality? Probably not. Alex Jones’s claims would not be typical to the class. Adequacy of representation? Sure. Why not?

Any other legal advice you want to give out? Or are you just going to comtinue to be a cocky jackass who doesn’t know what he’s talking about?

 

[CWMMA]

Censorship of any form needs to be crushed. I don’t give a fuck if they’re racist, jew, muslim and gay denouncers.
