Chicago Times: Activists Want Nick Fuentes Kicked Off The Internet. It Might Be Impossible

I’ve shared my thoughts on Nick Fuentes plenty of times.

This article in the Chicago Tribune though is a reminder that we don’t have to personally like each other to have the same enemies and interests.

Chicago Times:

“For someone who has been deplatformed as thoroughly as anyone this side of Donald Trump, Nick Fuentes is still easy to find online.

The FBI has called the far-right streamer from Chicago’s western suburbs a white supremacist in a court document, and nearly every major social media platform has banished him for hate speech violations. Many technical service providers and consumer apps won’t work with him, either. …

Fuentes’ continuing visibility shows the difficulty of erasing someone from the internet, no matter how scorned. Social media platforms have varying standards about impermissible speech, banned content is easily recirculated and plenty of tech companies are willing to support intolerant websites. …

Republican legislators around the country have drafted bills meant to limit social media companies’ ability to evict users. Meanwhile, some Democrats want to establish a federal agency that would address hate speech, disinformation and other social media issues. …”

If you asked Nick Fuentes a simple question like “what are your top five political issues in ranked order,” I am sure that his answers would likely be similar to mine.
