Milo was one of the first large accounts who were kicked off Twitter, and it led to him finding an important role in the pretend free speech activism that was popular around that time.

Yeah, my company's in, but Gavin, personally, I had a quarter million followers, and Elon thinks I'm too controversial.
They put so much evil energy onto me, like I'm the devil with the dumbed-down mask. That he's barely hanging on. They've taken 59% of the revenue away. He may not win this fight. But if he unbans me, he's basically unbanned almost everybody else. If he unbans me, I'm kind of like the token black sheep that has to be sacrificed. I don't agree with it, but I know why he's doing it.
I mean, Alex Jones is not banned on Twitter.
So he's doing the right thing by keeping Alex off Twitter because he's allowing all the other patriots and soldiers back onto Twitter, which is part of the revolution and stuff. But if he let Alex back on Twitter... It would make the media go crazy, and it would jeopardize his ability to bring back all the patriots and turn Twitter into the free speech zone or whatever.
He's sacrificed for everyone else getting back on Twitter, and he is accepting that he is the sacrifice.
But as it turns out, she wasn't actually kicked off for the video. She was kicked off for creating a new account to evade a previous ban. And the way that her new video went viral in the right-wing media, it brought her ban evasion to Twitter's attention. So her new account got banned.
You know, I just got kicked off of Twitter and I wear that with like a badge of honor. Joining you and so many others that have been kicked off that hateful, evil, leftist platform that just spread lies and basically controls politics and messaging in the media. And I'm so happy I got kicked off. You know, anyone that gets persecuted by these type of platforms, you really...
Carpe Donctum did not get kicked off Twitter for daring to criticize CNN. Pretty sure he did. It was for repeated violations of copyright rules, the most recent of which might end up completely derailing his life.
So, Jordan, today we've got an interesting situation to go over, and that is that Alex has been out of the studio bullhorning Washington, D.C. to try and get himself back on Twitter.
You see, Owen Benjamin was what you might call an early associate of a lot of the members of the intellectual dark web, but no one really cared when he got kicked off Twitter for harassing David Hogg after the Parkland shooting.
No, but I honestly, I think he should know by now, but the idea that he wasn't directly involved in that, I would believe that as a possibility. I think it's also possible where he's like, of course I don't know why he's banned. I'm letting somebody who's way worse than him run Twitter right now. Look, if he legitimately asked Jack, he was like, okay. What were the reasons that Alex was banned? And Jack responded with the actual reasons? Right. Then the next thing that you say, like for Jack, the smartest thing to say is I don't know. Right. Because if he responded with actual reasons, Joe goes, okay, Trump did that. Trump did that. Sure. What are your reasons, then? You do enter a conversation you can't have. Exactly. No. Of course I don't know is the correct answer. Sure. And I also believe it's possibly accurate. It's also possibly accurate. The idea that the CEO of a company doesn't know about operational day-to-day stuff, I believe that 100%.
It's like Jack Dorsey went on a month ago on NBC, CNN, ABC, all of it. He went on with Lester Holt. And Lester Holt's like, Jones says he wants to kill the media with assault rifles. Dorsey goes, Jack Dorsey goes, I know it's horrible, but he can stay.
I talked to folks that were in the meeting with him. When I confronted Marco Rubio, who walked up to the press conference, Jack Dorsey said, oh my God, now he's been mean to a Republican. This is how dumb they are.
As everyone now knows, Alex Jones and InfoWars' account itself, Have been permanently banned from Twitter.
My personal reaction to it is based on the reports of Jack, I'm going to lean more towards they found an excuse after Jack was... Personally accosted. That's my opinion.
He was being like, well, you know, let's not kick him off. You know, he was personally vetoing the kicking off of Alex. Yeah. And then after that interaction with Darcy, I would not be surprised if that was enough to be like... He'd be like, all right, you guys are right. Fuck this. Let's just do it.
No matter what the reality is, Alex had way too many chances, and he blew all of them. And it has nothing to do with any of the things that he suspects that it is, some sort of silencing of conservatives or anything like that. This is all the very natural consequences of his actions.
Him being kicked off Twitter the next day is fucking super dangerous. I don't think it's wrong that they did it. I understand why. You need to do it. You should have done it earlier. But the timing is really fucked up. Because on his show today, he said something that will become his narrative. This will validate him for the next, I don't know, at least six months.
Pressuring the company, pressuring their stock. Soros was pressuring their stock. Shorting their stock reportedly that if they didn't take me off, they'd do this.
We got a little bit more. So he claims that he was kicked off Twitter because he made a fat joke about Leslie Jones. Sure. Absolutely not true. Nope. That was very, very not true.
So he claims that he was kicked off Twitter because he made a fat joke about Leslie Jones. Sure. Absolutely not true. Nope. That was very, very not true. Could be because he's a racist Nazi. That's a big part of it. Also tweeting fake tweets that were created. You know how you can just make a fake tweet with someone and make it look like they said it? He tweeted a bunch of racist things and faked it as if they were coming from her. Sicked a bunch of really crazy people at her who were making death threats. Wonderful. Ended up hacking her, leaking nude pictures of her and shit like that. That's why you get kicked off Twitter. Jesus fucking... You were instrumental in a doxing. That's what happens.
