How To Get Rid Of Cockroaches
First you turn on the light …
… and then they scatter.
Infowars podcasts produced by right-wing conspiracy theorist Alex Jones were removed from Apple’s iTunes and its Podcast app on Sunday.
In a statement to BuzzFeed News, Apple confirmed that the podcasts were removed for violating its guidelines on hate speech. Five of the six podcasts that Infowars creates will no longer be available for download or streaming, including the daily Alex Jones Show podcast.
What a great way to start a Monday morning!
Thanks to everybody for the heads up.
Now let’s get rid of the Kochroaches.
1Cue the tragic music and the wailing cries of “Censorship!” and ” Discrimination! “.
What part of U.S. Law states that Jones’ verbal diarrhea must be distributed on someone else’s dime…
2Well bless my buttons! There just may be a time when they are lacking hockey in hell!
3That’s all well and good but what took them so long? It’s no like Alex Jones’ crap has just suddenly met the definition of hate speech. That’s been his trademark since the beginning.
4Maybe Apple, the trillion dollar company, finally thought they could withstand the economic tsunami if they stand up to this dolt.
5I read that FB has unpublished his page, too. Darn. https://money.cnn.com/2018/08/06/technology/facebook-infowars-alex-jones/index.html
6Alex Jones planned this well.
He’s sitting on a pile of what will soon be excess inventory of survivalist food and gear. With no potential customers far into his self made, self inhabited dystopian future.
Enjoy eating beans for dinner again Alex, before you crawl under your space blanket.
7Facebook, too: https://money.cnn.com/2018/08/06/technology/facebook-infowars-alex-jones/index.html
8He’s been bounced off of urine too!
9U-Tube not urine, Damn autocorrect
10And it took them this long — why, exactly? OK, so NOW they get to thump their chests and say, “Lookee what a good boy I am!”
But they could have taken the credit so much sooner! I can only guess that, at this point, they figure they’ve reached the tipping point. Up till now they calculated that the money they were making on his crap was more than the amount they were losing to the boycotts based on the fact that they were carrying him.
They’re not doing the right thing, the law of diminishing returns has caught up with them, that’s all.
11What it took was Bubba Jr. delivering a rhetorical/legal smack down which stripped jones of any rational for dissemination of his ignorant tripe.
12“InfoWars” doesn’t really exist;
13it was created by crisis actor Alex Jones.
Rick, maybe Alex and Jimmy Bakker can get together and craft a yummy smorgasbord from their survival garbage.
