Right-wing activist Joe Biggs is the latest casualty of Big Tech’s war on conservatives, as he was banned from Facebook Friday.
Screenshots of a chat between Biggs and LauraLoomer.us contributor Haley Kennington show that Biggs was banned from Facebook at 12:56pm on Friday, in the midst of their conversation.
The pair was discussing Bigg’s previous ban from Instagram – a Facebook subsidiary – when his account went dark and his messages were erased.
Facebook replaced the messages with its own which said, “This message has been temporarily removed because the sender’s account requires verification.”
Further screenshots show a “Content Not Found” message when searching for Biggs’ profile, which was listed under the name Bo Jiggs.
Biggs had only started using Facebook after he was banned from Twitter, where he had hundreds of thousands of followers.
The former InfoWars personality was in Portland, Oregon, where the Proud Boys will host a rally this weekend. The event was organized after journalist Andy Ngo was beaten in the streets by violent Antifa terrorists. It is possible that Biggs’ participation in the event might have played a part in his ban from the social networking giant.
His Twitter ban came after he was critical of the city of Portland and Antifa after Ngo’s reporting was met with violence. Ngo was hit in the head, causing a brain bleed, and his camera equipment was stolen. Nobody has been arrested by authorities in Portland over the incident.
Biggs is the latest conservative to be banned from a major tech platform, which always happens under the guise of a vague “terms of service” violation.
But Biggs’ ban puts him in good company.
He is now one of four conservative personalities banned from both Facebook and its subsidiary Instagram, and Twitter. The other three are Laura Loomer, Milo Yiannopoulos, and Alex Jones.
Loomer is engaged in a $3 billion lawsuit against Facebook stemming from her May ban. On a single day in May, Loomer, Jones, Yiannopoulos, and InfoWars’ Paul Joseph Watson were banned from the platform within minutes of each other after Facebook labeled them “dangerous individuals”.
In addition to Facebook, Loomer is suing Twitter for her November ban from that platform, where she had 260,000 followers. She is also suing the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), a radical Islamist group that is a designated terror organization in the United Arab Emirates, which played a role in the ban.
Hmmm. A Quick Bit of Independent Research led to Very Different Results for Joe. Does he Explicitly Call for Violence? Have Very Different Chrome and duckduckgo profiles? Bravely Protect the Vulnerable? Also, he is a Combat Vet. Independent Comment forums could Sort Such things out. Anyone Know any?
Fortunately we Haven’t Started Shooting. Much. Both the Right and the Left are Doing Everything Else though. What the Hell. Jack: I’m AWAKE! Laura: What does that MEAN? j: I ban L: we know For the Record, we Actually Are Involved in Shooting Wars. Nazis gonna Nazi.
oh dear. it Seems the Lefties & Righties are REALLY Getting into it. L: Science! R: Communist! Fascinating
Art may be the Most Effective Weapon against Nazism
As usual the libtard are trying to push their agendas with banning and violence. Everybody boycott Facebook for one day and wake them up! I had my cable discontinued three years ago because MSM took out after Trump and haven’t let up, even though he’s now President (boo boo, the Dems lost!) I wouldn’t vote Democratic now if God asked me to. They ruin the cities they have been Running, they advocateviolence to get their own way and they DONT represent their constituents. They won’t make our borders safe (so they can accrue more voters) and has anyone looked into their finances for cartel bribes? If we shut down the border the drug money dries up! If I lose my FB account, oh well. At least I’ll have my first amendment rights in place.
Trump has done NOTHING for Free Speech. Strangely TERRIFIED of Contrary Ideas. Dude, it’s an Election. Independents can Easily Vote Republican for House AND Senate. And STILL get Rid of ur Sorry Ass. September 5, 2018. And Alex in August. For a FAT guy you Sure do Know How to Dodge.
Tulsi Directly Supports Free Speech. But Certainly is Not the Frontrunner. Those who Value Free Speech MUST Stop Supporting President Trump. Of Course, there are FOOLS out there like Will Chamberlain. Let’s have a. Chat. WC: I’m on Twitter FS: Whoopdy-do Just Think How the World Would Change if Conservatives Started today with the Headlines Free Speech Before Trump. Maybe Independents have an Edge.
ANY Republican who Values President Trump more than Free Speech is a Goddamn Motherfuckin Traitor
Peter Implies that the Solution is More Support for Trump. I Heartily Disagree. The Best Solution is Vigorously Opposing Trump. Perhaps he will Change Course and Support Free Speech.
