This morning there were signs it could be happening again. The Wall Street Jurm reported that Big Tech Companies are using their power to silence certain political views. Both google and Web Hosting Service go daddy stopped providing Hosting Support for Daily Storm Area White Supremacist website. The Hotel Website airbnb announced it will perm nernt in any eventually ban White Supremacists from booking booking rooms. Pay pal wont let them use the payment platform. No one is weeping for the daily stormer, mentioning their name probably got us written up as dangerous alt right sub investigatives. Theres a principle at stake and is worth defending. We should be concerned by the prospect of big Companies Using their power to enforce ideological conformity when it seems to affect people we dont like as it does now. Especially now we should be concerned. Support for Free Expression seems to be fading on the left
