Campus Reform's media director Cabot Phillips served up this hot take on Thursday after hearing how Facebook went on another banning spree targeting Paul Joseph Watson, Louis Farrakhan and others who helped Trump win the presidency in 2016.

Reminder for my conservative friends tonight:

Private companies have every right to deny you access to their platform. Because it's their platform. You don't have a constitutional right to a Facebook or Twitter account.
— Cabot Phillips (@cabot_phillips) May 3, 2019

Do you really want to give the federal government the power to mandate that you do business with people even if it goes against your conscience?

Remember the Colorado baker? I thought conservatives agreed that government compulsion is bad?
— Cabot Phillips (@cabot_phillips) May 3, 2019

There are two solutions to the problem.

Big gov option: Force Twitter and Facebook to allow all people on their platform

Free market option: Let consumers decide what products/platforms they want to use, and let the market incentivize companies like Facebook to be more fair.

Phillips also attacked Infowars' Kaitlin Bennett after she pointed out how they've done more to promote his work than almost anyone:

I don't want or need the support of you and Alex Jones.

My message was to conservatives, y'all don't qualify. https://t.co/zPXFnr1ZMQ

No one knows who you are or cares. https://t.co/Pqw8yJHcVz

If you're wondering why Phillips is so brain dead, look no further:

Reminder that Cabot Phillips’ daddy is the president of a literal Koch Brothers lobbying group called Americans for Prosperity so he will always be in the privileged political class. This is why he can afford to peddle this stupid, losing “conservatarian” bullshit. https://t.co/55pttheK4R

His father is Tim Phillips who runs the Koch brothers-funded lobbying group Americans for Prosperity.

If there's one silver lining to all these bans, it's that Conservatism, Inc. is showing just how truly worthless they are.

Targeted Victory's director of content Caleb Hull had a similarly idiotic take:

As did the Washington Examiner's Tiana Lowe:

Serious question to "conservatives" who want the gov't to regulate social media: what do you do when the GOP loses control of the White House & Congress? That day will come, even if only temporarily. When it does, do you want President AOC appointing the regulators?
— Tiana Lowe (@TianaTheFirst) May 2, 2019

Name me the last problem the government has made better and not worse by getting involved. The only answers involve public goods, externalities, agency dilemmas, and monopolies. Social media falls under none of these umbrellas. Gab still exists.
— Tiana Lowe (@TianaTheFirst) May 2, 2019

FWIW, we still have some consumer power. Conservatives got @JesseKellyDC back on Twitter. But I think private citizens have to be mindful in diversifying how they distribute & consume information. Subscribe to newsletters. Vary your media diet. Use Patreon.
— Tiana Lowe (@TianaTheFirst) May 2, 2019

I would go to court and get an injunction against AOC’s regulators for violating the First Amendment.

Government regulation cannot constitutionally restrain speech

But it can constitutionally liberate it

The entire internet (Google, YouTube, Facebook, Instagram and Twitter) has been reengineered in the span of around two years time since Trump won to artificially suppress populist-nationalist media and prop up prog-globalist establishment propaganda outlets.

Now, hugely popular thought criminals who outcompeted said establishment propaganda outlets on every level are being banned en masse, having their PayPal accounts closed, their bank accounts shuttered, their domain names seized, their payment processors pulled and their AirBnB and Uber accounts shut down.

According to these morons, that's just the "free market" in action!

*Trust Fund libertarian commentator puts on glasses:

“Why don’t you just pull yourself up by your bootstraps and make your own Facebook, and payment processor, and bank?!!!”

Conservatism as a philosophy has failed to conserve anything. The whole modern conservative movement was a scam foisted on America by CIA agent William F. Buckley to get nationalists and populist groups which actually threatened the establishment like the John Birch Society relegated to the fringes. Meanwhile, the radical left was allowed to take over all our institutions largely unopposed because only conservative losers who stood for nothing and inspired no one with their bulls**t about "free market principles" were their opposition.

While many people are telling these fools they're next to be banned, I doubt very much that will be the case. Worthless "conservatives" like these who stand for nothing and surrender on everything are the exact type of fake opposition our ruling oligarchs want.
