    Default PayPal discriminates against Infowars. Refuses them service, citing "hate speech"

    Did they ban NAACP for supporting affirmative action.?? For saying whites should be denied jobs just because they're white.? There's your hate speech.

    https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/...ed-hate/?amp=1

    sep 21 2018Payment processing giant PayPal has cut off the account of Alex Jones—the latest in a long line of technology companies to cut ties with the radio host and online provocateur.

    "We undertook an extensive review of the Infowars sites and found instances that promoted hate or discriminatory intolerance," a PayPal spokesperson told New York Times journalist Nathaniel Popper

    PayPal has given Jones' site, Infowars, 10 days to find a new payment processor.

    Alex Jones has now been banned from a long list of high-profile technology platforms. Twitter, Facebook, and YouTube all recently removed Jones' accounts from their platforms, and Apple and Spotify have blacklisted Jones' podcasts.

    Jones has faced criticism for being a purveyor of fake news—like the baseless "Pizzagate" theory that Democratic operatives were running a pedophile ring from the basement of a DC pizzeria. He has said that a number of recent mass shootings, including the shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School in 2012, were hoaxes perpetrated by the government.

    So far, most technology platforms have insisted that these Jones bans are not about fake news but rather about Jones' hate speech. However, the platforms have not always been very specific about which of Jones' many inflammatory comments have crossed the line into hate speech.

    Looks like the only safe place left for Alex Jones is Russia. :0)
    AMERICAN HISTORY ITSELF IS A TESTAMENT TO THE STRENGTH AND RESILIENCE OF AFRICAN PEOPLE. WE, ALONG WITH THE COURGE AND SACRIFICES OF CONSCIOUS WHITE AMERICANS, LIKE VIOLA LIUZZO, EVERETT DIRKSEN, AND MANY OTHERS, HAVE FOUGHT AND DIED TOGETHER FOR OUR FREEDOM, AND FOR OUR SURVIVAL.

    In America, rights are are not determined by what is just, fair, equitable, honest, nor by what Jesus would do. Rights are determined ONLY by what you can DEMAND.

    I've used PayPal for almost 20 years now. I say FU to you and your sick little friends, just like they (allegedly according to your diaper sources) did to Infowars.

    PayPal is weird. They refuse to process vaping supplies as well.
    Abortion rights dogma can obscure human reason & harden the human heart so much that the same person who feels
    empathy for animal suffering can lack compassion for unborn children who experience lethal violence and excruciating
    pain in abortion.

    Unborn animals are protected in their nesting places, humans are not. To abort something is to end something
    which has begun. To abort life is to end it.

    Probably because drug dealers use "vaping supplies" as a cover for illegal shit.

    Good for PayPal.

    It is our moral obligation as humans to shun racists and bigots.

    In fact, the author of the OP is very wise to keep his bigotry and racism restricted in scope to the safety of an anonymous keyboard. He otherwise would be shunned and sanctioned by neighbors, co-workers, employers, and most of the general public.

    Well not really completely accurate. There are specific devices with the correct components and a totally different heating element meant for grass and dabbing. They're sold online also, but they're called "vape pens for 'herbs'". LOL

    It's different from vaping devices, mods, coils and e-juices.

    You seem very informed about these drug-delivering devices. Interesting.

    There's no way to avoid knowing this additional information with it openly advertised at all vaping supply sites because of all the relaxed weed laws in some states now.

    Welllllll........ yeeeeeah???? Is there any adult here who never smoked grass at some point in their life? Or still does now? You yourself "knew" that it could be smoked using a "vaping device" of SOME kind.
