Alex Jones seems more prominent now after the deplatforming.
Banning on platforms for whatever reason reduces the platforms reach and raises the platform the party moves too.
We use to separate people by race now we do it by idea. Now sure martin luther king or lennon would agree.

But, we can't know for sure, and, regardless, his hypothetical opinion on this question doesn't matter very much to me.
- generalizations 6y agoThat's not the point. The point is that separating people based on their beliefs is nothing new, and generally frowned upon by history.

- generalizations 6y agoThose are examples, but the principle is the same.

- pjc50 6y agoMartin Luther King specifically said that he wanted people judged on the quality of their character, of which dishonesty is definitely a part.
- sangnoir 6y agoI think both MLK and Lennon would be against the side calling for violence, considering how their lives ended.
