Did George Soros and Co. Pressure Facebook Censorship of Alex Jones
While Censorship is ripping across social media headlines most notably Facebook, and YouTube closing down Alex Jones InfoWars accounts. I have ran across an interesting connection, that somebody with real investigative power might want to investigate. It is the Facebook/George Soros connection. This theory may shed light as to why Alex Jones and other Alt Right, Conservative, Libertarian Media figures have been singled out and have had their accounts shut down. It could also be payback for Steve Bannon of Breitbart Fame opening an office in Europe in direct competition with Soros. There is absolutely no love loss between George Soros and the Alt Right, Conservative, Libertarian movements.
A quote from Naomi Gray of Market Realist on an article titled"How Does George Soros View Facebook", Jan 30 2018
How Does George Soros View Facebook?
An obstacle to innovation?
Facebook (FB) is preparing to report its 4Q17 results after recently coming under fire from billionaire investor George Soros. Soros owns nearly 110,000 Facebook shares, although he greatly reduced his exposure to the stock alongside others such as Twitter (TWTR) in 3Q17. report its 4Q17 results after recently coming under fire from billionaire investor George Soros. Soros owns nearly 110,000 Facebook shares, although he greatly reduced his exposure to the stock alongside others such as Twitter (TWTR) in 3Q17.
By May a movement developed called," Freedom From Facebook" involving MoveOn.org, Demand Progress, Public Citizen, and the Open Markets Institute which are four groups with ties to George Soros. What these companies have in common was a large progressive move to rally support to petition the FCC to break up Facebook as a monopoly. This movement generated alot of Steem going into July when The C.W.A. Union joined forces in the Freedom From Facebook movement petition to the FTC.
In a story from Bloomberg News July 9,2018, The C.W.A. union gives an official statement on their position. “We should all be deeply concerned by Facebook’s power over our lives and democracy,” said Brian Thorn, a researcher for the 700,000-member Communications Workers of America, the newest member of the Freedom From Facebook coalition. For the FTC not to end Facebook’s monopoly and impose stronger rules on privacy “would be unfair to the American people, our privacy, and our democracy,” Thorn said in an email
It is now Aug 9th and by the time Alex Jones was removed from Facebook and YouTube, absolute silence from the Freedom From Facebook coalition. I couldn't find news on this movement after August considering they gained support in July from the C.W.A Union, 700,000 members strong you would think they just got rolling and had some strong momentum behind them.
My Theory is George Soros with 110,000 shares of Facebook and at a time when Facebook had a recent market loss of 21 Billion Dollars in the first quarter was told that the "Freedom From Facebook" movement would go away quietly if you censor key figures in the Alt. Right, Conservative, Libertarian movement, and there will be no more talk of breaking Facebook up as a Monopoly.
Say what you will, in my opinion Alex Jones and others having their accounts on social media shut down in unprecedented censorship has George Soros and the Deep State written all over it....and that's my story.

Well presented - you obviously did your homework.
If I were a teacher (from yesteryear) I think I would grade your article as a B+
Humour aside, anyone who exposes Soros for the evil influence he is, deserves my support.
I really appreciate your comment, thanks, I was digging for info to see if I could find evidence somebody was behind the recent Censorship and I believe I'm in the ballpark,but it's something I want to share with like-minded people to get some feedback on. I failed freshman grammar 3 times and later in life did take some associate's degree level English so you B+ is very much appreciated, if I did this as a job, I would keep an editor extremely busy! Thank you for taking time out to read my post, and leaving a comment, I made sure to put you on my follow list, take care!
Loved your pic - so I am posting it on gab.ai - will mention I got it from your post
