My Comment: Whether or not you like Alex Jones, or even if you think he is a shill or whatever- The point is, that if they can use this situation to call what he does “Hate Speech”, then it paves the way for them to do it to all of us in the alternative Christian media. Once the alternative Conservative media has been silenced then they can more easily pick off individuals who won’t conform to the Liberal agenda. Also I believe that people like Steven L. Anderson who speak genuine hate speech, while claiming to be “Christian Pastors” may actually be NWO plants put in place to whip people up to label all Christians as bigots etc, so that the only solution in the end is to ban Christians from speaking Biblical Truth altogether. Or make everyone too afraid to speak.
Censorship: Alex Jones Removed from Apple, Facebook, YouTube, Spotify
On Monday, tech giant Apple joined in on the censorship fun by removing five of six podcasts of Alex Jones and Infowars from their iTunes and Podcasts apps. Apple’s move was draconian, completely removing all of the shows on those five podcasts instead of singling out the more “offensive” ones.
“Apple does not tolerate hate speech, and we have clear guidelines that creators and developers must follow to ensure we provide a safe environment for all of our users,” a company statement said. “Podcasts that violate these guidelines are removed from our directory making them no longer searchable or available for download or streaming. We believe in representing a wide range of views, so long as people are respectful to those with differing opinions.”
So, Apple is creating a “safe space” for news consumers, is that it? Then why is progressive The Young Turks show still available on the platform? Its hosts regularly disagree with conservatives and are certainly not always “respectful to those with differing opinions.” On election night of 2016, host Ana Kasparian referred to female Trump supporters as “dumb.” Both Kasparian and The Young Turks founder Cenk Uygur have loudly disagreed with Jones himself, with Uygur shouting in his face and Kasparian calling him a “fat f**k” at the 2016 Republican National Convention.
Not to be outdone, Facebook continued its war against Jones and his Infowars platform by banning four pages — the Alex Jones page; the Alex Jones Channel page; the Infowars Nightly News page and the Infowars page — belonging to Jones for allegedly violating the social network’s policy on “hate speech.”

A Minute To Midnite Show HostFacebook, Apple, YouTube and Spotify ban Infowars’ Alex Jones
All but one of the major content platforms have banned the American conspiracy theorist Alex Jones, as the companies raced to act in the wake of Apple’s decision to remove five podcasts by Jones and his Infowars website.
Facebook unpublished four pages run by Jones for “repeated violations of community standards”, the company said on Monday. YouTube terminated Jones’s account over him repeatedly appearing in videos despite being subject to a 90-day ban from the website, and Spotify removed the entirety of one of Jones’s podcasts for “hate content”.
Facebook’s removal of the pages – the Alex Jones Channel Page, the Alex Jones Page, the Infowars Page and the Infowars Nightly News Page – comes after the social network imposed a 30-day ban on Jones personally “for his role in posting violating content to these pages”.

A Minute To Midnite Show HostMailChimp goes full FASCIST; de-platforms Alex Jones but can’t cite a single violation of terms and conditions
(Natural News) Like him or hate him, the tidal wave of censorship and opposition that Alex Jones of InfoWars is facing from multiple social media platforms – most recently MailChimp – certainly raises vital questions which every American citizen needs to ponder: What is free speech? Is it the ability to express beliefs and ideas that are mainstream, socially acceptable, “normal?” Or is it the freedom to express beliefs that may be difficult for some to accept, that challenge the mainstream, that uphold certain religious beliefs, or that may even be absolutely ridiculous?
Yes, some of Jones’ ideas are really far out there, and his conspiracy theories are just that: theories. Even some in the independent media do not agree with much of what he says. But does that mean that he deserves the treatment he has received from social media platforms which have essentially ganged up on him by attacking him at the same time to cover each other’s backs legally?
Where is the outcry from the mainstream media?
Why is the mainstream media taking this lying down? If we were to rewind 30 years in history to the time before the Internet, would the media have accepted the shutting down of a publication read by millions of people because it presented far-out ideas? Or go back a further 50 years, and think about how book burning was the beginning of the end for freedom of thought and expression in Nazi Germany. The whole world was shocked at the destruction of those books – even though many people did not agree with the sentiments expressed in some of them, including in books by Karl Marx and Sigmund Freud. (Related: Health blogger threatened with jail time for advocating Paleo diet that cured his diabetes.)
In recent years, it seems that the understanding of what constitutes free speech has been changing slowly but surely, making it increasingly difficult for people outside of the straight-and-narrow to express their beliefs. For example, if a Christian speaks out against homosexuality – which is expressly condemned in the Bible – is that hate speech? Or is that person exercising their rights to both free speech and freedom of religion? If such speech is considered hateful, then why is it not labeled hate speech when members of other religions express views which are perhaps abhorrent to Christians, such as the concept that abortion should be acceptable? Or why are angry feminists allowed to express hatred against men without repercussions? (Related: Intentionally lying for political gain ruled protected free speech by federal judge.)
MailChimp joins the fray …
Taking it even further than mere censorship, InfoWars’ basic ability to conduct business has now come under attack, with both MailChimp and LinkedIn banning the company from using their services. In a statement to Media Matters For America, the company noted:
MailChimp doesn’t generally comment on individual users or accounts, but we’ll make an exception today. MailChimp notified Infowars that their accounts have been terminated for violating our Terms of Service, which make it clear that we don’t allow people to use our platform to disseminate hateful content. We take our responsibility to our customers and employees seriously. The decision to terminate this account was thoughtfully considered and is in line with our company’s values.

A Minute To Midnite Show HostAlex Jones’ flagship website Infowars.com went down for several hours Tuesday, in a suspected DDOS cyber attack targeting critical Infowars infrastructure.
The website, which sees peak traffic during The Alex Jones Show – broadcast Monday through Friday 11AM to 3PM – went offline around noon CST.
According to Infowars IT staff, one of multiple servers was inexplicably kicked offline.
Since then, the website now features a splash page with redirects to Newswars.com, Prisonplanet.com, Infowarsstore.com and the Alex Jones twitter page.

A Minute To Midnite Show HostThe U.N. Is Behind Alex Jones Censorship
You can read about such goals on U.N. websites like the U.N. Global Compact website that has thousands of companies participating as signatories to their goals. These goals revolve around common liberal causes like social justice, woman’s health i.e. abortion on demand, LGTBQ “rights,” sustainability i.e. carbon tax, etc. As such when you sign onto the U.N. Global Business Compact you pledge to support these goals in your organization. It states the importance the roles business plays right on the opening paragraph of the website,
“The SDGs Explained for Business
In September 2015, all 193 Member States of the United Nations adopted a plan for achieving a better future for all — laying out a path over the next 15 years to end extreme poverty, fight inequality and injustice, and protect our planet. At the heart of “Agenda 2030” are the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) which clearly define the world we want — applying to all nations and leaving no one behind.
The new Global Goals result from a process that has been more inclusive than ever, with Governments involving business, civil society and citizens from the outset. We are all in agreement on where the world needs to go. Fulfilling these ambitions will take an unprecedented effort by all sectors in society — and business has to play a very important role in the process.” (UN Global Compact Website)
Notice the operating words in this statement are “…world we want”, and “We are all in agreement.” Signifying that U.N. objectives are higher objectives than nationalist objectives and thus nations must submit.
These goals are based on the U.N. Declaration of Human Rights, in which they outline their belief that gay marriage, abortion on demand, anti-gun laws, LGBTQ equality are all basic human rights among other things.
The premise is right-wing organizations, media, politicians and personalities need to be silenced because they do not recognize these U.N. expanded definitions of rights.
