It is just sad that they actually wrote a post about that. As long as it is not clearly illegal stuff Breitbart should be able to sell their merch no matter what idiotic positions they might have. That should not be something to brag about but standard business practice, even for Silicon Valley.
- phil21 9y agoCutting unpopular industries/sites/businesses off from payment processing has been a popular sport of activists behind the scenes since I've been in the industry. It's a huge chilling effect no one really discusses very much, and is why I was originally so obsessed with the Bitcoin idea - finally a payment method no one could subvert to force their political and moral ideology on you. The level of censorship the typical banking partner (e.g. merchant account) exerts on a business is probably the largest out of any vendor by an order of magnitude - perhaps only shared in scale by telecommunications/hosting provider.
