Facebook announced Thursday afternoon that it had designated some high-profile people, including Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan, who's notorious for using anti-Semitic language, and right-wing conspiracy theorist Alex Jones, as "dangerous" and said it will be purging them from its platforms.

 

Jones and his media outlet InfoWars had previously been banned from Facebook (FB) in in August 2018, but had maintained a presence on Instagram, which is owned by Facebook. On Thursday, Jones and InfoWars will be barred from Instagram as well. 

 

Other people banned Thursday include fringe right-wing media personalities Laura Loomer, Milo Yiannopoulos and Paul Joseph Watson. Also included are Paul Nehlen, an anti-Semite who unsuccessfully ran for Congress in 2016 and 2018.

I think a lot of these people, certainly PJW, are much bigger on YouTube which is where they earn a lot of their cash. 

 

Youtube also seem a lot slower at closing these cunts down, though I think they have made sure Tommy Robinson can’t earn any money off the platform.

Carl Benjamin continues digging.

“There’s been an awful lot of talk about whether I would or wouldn’t rape Jess Phillips,” Benjamin said.

“I’ve been in a lot of trouble for my hardline stance of not even raping her. I suppose with enough pressure I might cave. But let’s be honest, nobody’s got that much beer.”

Nah, I think the comment from 2 years ago was "I wouldn't even rape you." This quote is from this week, attached to a YouTube video a according to reports.

I’m pretty sure it’s from an old YT vid from 2 years ago that’s been ‘rediscovered’ this week. 

 

Hes a dickhead, but the outrage is strange to watch.  What was said about her on here in the JC thread?

I know.  It's strange that people can disagree with someone politically, while also thinking that violent misogyny is out of order.
