Facebook puts a ban on controversial agitators. |
He joins Alex Jones, Milo Yiannopoulos, Laura Loomer, Paul Joseph Watson and Paul Nahlen as folks permanently banned from 1 Hackers Way. The social media giant Facebook called them "dangerous and too extreme" for the site.
If Facebook wanted to a purge of hateful individuals, why not stop there!
Pam Geller, Michael Savage, Brigitte Gabriel, Scott Kassler, Tomi Lahren, Candace Owens, Robert Spencer, John Hagee, Pat Robertson, Sean "Softball" Hannity, Breitbart News, Wayne Allan Root, Lou Dobbs, Tucker Carlson, Laura Ingraham, Michelle Malkin, Malik Zulu Shabazz, Ben Shapiro, R. Kelly, Bill Cosby, Bill O'Reilly, Paul Mooney, Jacob Wohl and Fox News itself could be banned from Facebook.
"We've always banned individuals or organizations that promote or engage in violence and hate, regardless or ideology," a Facebook spokesperson said.
Some questioned why Facebook would do this in one fell swoop.
Well anyway, here's a poll.
Was it a good idea for Facebook to ban Alex Jones, Louis Farrakhan, Laura Loomer, Milo Yiannopoulos, and Joseph Paul Watson? (Expect the dumbest answers to be picked by far-right trolls)
Because if they could get rid of a handful of bigots and kookspiracy nuts, it's only going to open the door to many more.
Facebook has been in the business of promoting jealousy, racism, materialism, depression and suicide. I don't get on it as much as I used to.
