In August 2018 Facebook permanently banned Infowars for unspecified “hate speech.”
The tech giants, including Facebook, Twitter, Google-YouTube and Wikipedia have all stepped up their harassment of conservative publishers since the 2016 election.
Conservative television host, writer and popular YouTuber Paul Joseph Watson reported at the time.
Facebook has permanently BANNED Infowars.
For unspecified "hate speech". They didn't even tell us what the offending posts were.
This sets a chilling precedent for free speech.
To all other conservative news outlets – you are next.
The great censorship purge has truly begun. pic.twitter.com/v7Yo9hI0q3

Paul Joseph Watson works for Infowars and has been employed by Alex Jones for several years.
On Thursday Paul Joseph Watson was banned from Facebook for being associated with Infowars and Alex Jones.
Paul Joseph Watson is a populist who has NEVER broken Facebook rules… But he associates with Alex Jones.
How does this happen in America?
We have lost our freedom of speech — the tech giants took it from us.
Facebook is now banning anyone who is linked to Infowars or has shared too many stories from the conservative Infowars page.
Russians buy a few Facebook ads.
Leftists: This is horrendous! This is election meddling! Democracy is at stake!
Facebook bans most of the people who helped get Trump elected.
Leftists (and boomers): Hur dur muh private company can do what it likes.

The creepiest thing is not the bans, it's the threat that anyone else will be banned for talking about the people who were banned.
That's chilling. That's giant corporations enforcing their own Communist Chinese-style social credit system.
And leftists love it.

Clear violation of the Digital Communications Act. When will @realDonaldTrump act? https://t.co/XEwBy8EaEj

This is the key point. Facebook will ban you for sharing Infowars links now, unless you're condemning them.
It is openly punishing and rewarding users for their political opinions now.
This is a formula for censoring not just websites and personalities, but their supporters too https://t.co/pNjGlbYAt9

Laura Loomer is now basically making thinly veiled suicide threats because of the way she has been treated. And many on here will laugh. Yet we're the "hateful" ones. OK.
I hope Laura is going to be fine, her friends should check on her.
