“Twitter said it is standing by its decision not to ban accounts associated with right-wing conspiracy theorist Alex Jones, despite "outside pressure" for it to ban his content.

The CEO and co-founder of Twitter, Jack Dorsey, explained the company’s decision in a series of tweets on Tuesday night, noting that Jones, owner of the InfoWars website, hadn’t violated any of its rules.”

 “We know that’s hard for many but the reason is simple: he hasn’t violated our rules. We’ll enforce if he does,” he said. “If we succumb and simply react to outside pressure, rather than straightforward principles we enforce (and evolve) impartially regardless of political viewpoints, we become a service that’s constructed by our personal views that can swing in any direction. That’s not us.” ~ @jack

 “Twitter has been under fire from users since Sunday, when Apple said it removed podcasts produced by Jones from its streaming platform, citing “hate speech.” Facebook, YouTube and Spotify followed suit with restrictions of their own this week.

Dorsey said he understood why people were upset with the decision, but he said censorship isn’t the answer. He also encouraged journalists to “refute” false information.”

 I am baffled as to why *ANYONE* would think you are mad over “Alex Jones.” No one cares. And just like TRUMP you received so much backlash and were dragged for *NOT BANNING* Alex Jones like APPLE YOUTUBE and FACEBOOK. 

Where were any of these COWARD “free speech defenders” when this was happening! You did everything humanly possible to protect free speech!!  But some people deliberately push boundaries just to get banned!! End of story. 🫂🦁💖
