I am hoping the lack of a backlash from this will embolden Reddit and Twitter to do the same. Reddit especially.
Youtube shuts down InfoWars channel (Alex Jones' den of wisdom).

Apple is so big thay repercussions wouldn't do shit to them when it comes to banning people like him.
Countdown to dumbasses on the left like Bill Maher opposing this.
"Just because you don't like his vile promotion of hate, misinformation, and violence doesn't mean you should stop listening to what he has to say."

Well I guess there's always CRTV with the rest of the shitfucks on Youtube like Gavin Mcinnes and Steven Crowder. Fuck you Alex Jones.
I'm expecting his as well and I'm gonna blow a fucking gasket. I don't think Maher will, but some of the free speech absolutists that I follow like Kyle Kulinski will probably defend him.
YT & FB: "You don't understand the intricate nuances of moderation!"
Alex Jones: "I'm going to shoot Robert Mueller."
YT & FB: "......ok. you're right."
Apple took a stand, so everyone else started following suit.
Cue Joe Rogan offering Alex an exclusive interview and Joe agreeing with him on everything.
Is carl of akkad still a thing? Haven't heard about him in a while.
Oh the irony. I wonder if any videos related to him will be automatically taken down as a result. I will report all of them.
Meh. He'll just end up having a regular 1 hour guest spot on Count Cuntula's channel.
He needs to be banned from the platform as a person, not a channel.

No lies detected.
Apple is literally dragging us to the 21st century.
Judging by his twitter feed. Twitter need to step up....... He is reaping this to solidify his "supporters". It's him against the world etc. He has a App apparently as well...
He got banned from twitter permanently but is still around on youtube and facebook unfortunately
I think Carl of Swindon just isn't crazy enough to be picked up on most people's radars these days.
"Jones' 1368th offense was just beyond the pale for us here at Youtube!"
lol fucking cowards
Wonder if Twitter and Amazon will follow suit.
Not trying to defend him, but its logical that it took so long. The internet is a hotbed of pro-neutrality, free spreech and unlimited information. As a company, to limit someone's right to express themselves in their medium of choosing whatever their content, they have to be ready for any form of criticism and outrage. All 4 companies doing so in unison suggests a united front for this action, and I hope to god they do. Because those 3 points I mentioned will surely be covered by the right in these or more ways:
-Why silence someone like this?
-Why should net neutrality exist when the platform owners themselves are censoring content themselves?
-Why are these companies taking a politcal stance against us?
This is gonna be the big one, I truly think so. Its finally gonna move people off their asses and hopefully make these companies understand that support from the consumer base will only come when the moral compass is not completely fucked.

I fucking hate the guy, but this gif will never not be hilarious to me. His expression is almost Tim Heidecker-esque.
