What's next? Are we going to shame Samsung for selling him a phone, or T-Mobile for selling him phone service? Amazon for selling him podcast mics?

Don’t forget banking.

The way it's going I would not be surprised if it happened sooner rather then later... I wish I had the money to buy my own country... Lol

Not a big fan of censorship myself.

Bit disingenuous. Apple doesn’t own podcasts like Twitter and YouTube own their platforms, but it’s definitely the dominant directory.

Delisting should reduce distribution some.

>...saying in November that Dr. Anthony Fauci and FBI Director Christopher Wray should be beheaded...

Wait, he called for the murder of two public figures? Is that somehow legal in the US?

It can be legal if it’s hyperbole. Lots of people say things like “I’m gonna kill him” without actually committing a crime.

Same as a comedienne that did a picture of a beheaded president and mockingly said, blood coming out of his eyes... his whatever.

If someone did something similar for the now president I imagine some people would have issue with it.

Shame on Apple for giving such an reprehensible man a megaphone. They should be sued like any other publisher would be.

Sued for what?

for hurting fweelings
