    Fascism. Corporations trying to pick the winners and losers.
    Twitter FB and Youtube don't owe you anything.

    The social contract matters, except when it doesn't

    "Hateful" is in the eye of the beholder

    These companies didn't become successful or wealthy because of their "inclusion and diversity". These SJW CEO's (for example Nike) are the equivalent of the Kardashian sister stepping into wealth and attempting to seek social change.

    The social contract doesn't apply to big faceless corporations

    It is.

    Read the terms of service. Private companies aren't required to to include people who don't follow the rules.

    Don't like it? Don't sign the terms of service. Find another platform that suits you better.

    Why do we belittle companies today that were Nazi collaborators?

    you agreed not to be a hateful hole when you signed the terms of service.

    that's the contract you and Alex Jones both signed. what did the contract you signed promise you?

    Twitter and Youtube are Nazis for 86ing Alex Jones?

    Go ahead, connect the dots, I'm all ears.

    They are 86ing them for ideological reasons. Nazi collaborators were also supporting an ideology

    weak

    Alex Jones got booted for defaming and harassing survivors of a mass killing, among other things.

    Call it ideological if you like, it put Alex Jones afoul of rules he agreed to when he signed up.

    Derp thinks it's fascism to be held accountable for contractual limitations he agreed to.

    The Jews were hateful and deserving of relegation, too. Just ask Hitler.

    Paypal pulling sponsorship for such behavior makes perfect sense. Banning him doesn't unless he was physically threatening them or calling for harm to be done.

    People need to understand that things like "1st Amendment", "facism", etc are directly connected to government.

    A private company can generally do as they please and/or up to whatever collective bargaining agreement they agreed to (if one is in place).

    Otherwise, a guy like the POTUS could sue CNN claiming he's being censored because they don't show his speeches, for example, or only show partial speeches.

    It just doesn't work like that. Censorship only relates to government.

    Twitter isn't Hitler. Unlike German chancellors, it possesses zero political force to eliminate or silence anyone.

    so, why is Paypal required to do business with an obnoxious head who defames and bullies people whose kids got shot at school?

    I am wondering why they are making Alex Jones out to be some sort of lesson or example. I imagine he is not the only person with a Paypal account that made public statements about that shooting.

    You even have Congress running hearings about fake news:

    Why wouldn't these companies react to that if it gets them in trouble?

    the law is the same way. if it tried to enforce the rules across the board, it would run put of resources and we would run out of patience with it. expecting consistent, comprehensive enforcement of rules isn't realistic.
