National Review Smears Alex Jones

The National Review attacks Alex Jones:

The problem isn’t that Alex Jones is banned from Facebook. The problem is that Facebook is big enough, and influential enough, and operates like a de facto public utility enough, that it’s understandable why people would confuse its discretion for an attack on free speech.

It’s also a problem, as Ben Shapiro points out at National Review Online, that these companies justified their moves on the basis of Jones’s “hate speech” — both the wokest and the vaguest weapon at hand. Jones has been an anti-Semite of the blood-libel, None Dare Call It Conspiracy, Protocols of the Elders of Zion variety for at least 25 years, and has long doled out veiled and not-so-veiled threats of violence and retribution against public officials and private citizens alike. So it comes off as a bit disingenuous for Facebook to toss Jones for “using dehumanizing language to describe people who are transgender, Muslims and immigrants.”

Here's Alex Jones talking to Howard Stern about his wife's Jewish background. Here's the book None Dare Call It Conspiracy which definitely isn't an anti-semitic book (it's one of the biggest selling non-fiction books of the 1970's).
