Politics of the EMPIRE 10: It’s a private company I do what I want!
The Politics of the EMPIRE is hosted by Dorf, Josh Houslander and Adam Hernandez. We air LIVE monthly on Tuesday at 8 PM ET.
In this episode of Politics of the EMPIRE, Dorf, Josh, and Adam discuss the latest social media purge and de-platforming of alt-right pundits like Alex Jones, Milo and Laura Loomer. Are these bans justified under the banner of a private company or is this just a blatant trampling of freedom of speech?
In the broader sense, is there general hypocrisy for some who advocate for privatizationbut then cry foul when a private company actually executes decisions based on the greater good of the business rather than one particular individual?
