Is there some sort of hidden morality/integrity in Facebook ? Is Facebook some bastion of something yet to be revealed ?
I mean, granted I am all about that tasty freedom, but why care what Facebook promotes or does not promote? Does Jones being on YouTube cause you much hand-wringing?
Shocking, another mouth breathing trumpster who doesn't support the rights of private companies to support and enforce their own rules - unless it involves baking gay themed cakes, then they are all about supporting the bigots right to run his business however he wants. Im sensing a pattern here.
One day after what appeared to be a coordinated attack by media giants Facebook, Apple, Spotify and Google on Alex Jones, whose various social media accounts were banned or suspended in a matter of hours, the crackdown against alternative media figures continued as several Libertarian figures, including the Ron Paul Institute director, found their Twitter accounts suspended.
All your base are belong to us. A leaked memo circulating among Senate Democrats contains a host of bonkers authoritarian proposals for regulating digital platforms, purportedly as a way to get tough on Russian bots and fake news.

“The World’s Most Persecuted Minority: Christians.”
According to a 2011 Pew Research Center survey, there were 2.19 billion Christians around the world in 2010, more than three times as much from the 600 million recorded in 1910, however this rate of growth is slower than the overall population growth over the same time period. According to a 2015 Pew Research Center study, by 2050, the Christian population is expected to be 3.0 billion.
