Not..really.

Gab has denounced violence from the beginning. Twitter STILL has many more instances of ISIS accounts, Muslim brotherhood members, and people like Louis Farrakhan..who regularly call people of the Jewish faith 'termites'.

Why no de-platforming??? Where is the outrage????

It really makes no sense to me why one crazy person person having an account on Gab means that they have to be de-platformed by so many providers.

The only logical conclusion is political bias. Gab is known for allowing conservative/right-leaning view points and this is one more way for people on the Left to ban them.

I also find it a little ironic that so many people on HN are pushing corporate rights for not doing business with anyone for almost any reason. Yet, if it was a Christian baker not baking a gay wedding-themed cake, it should somehow be illegal.

Trump Derangement Syndrome is alive and well.
