Where are all the 'Fairness Doctrine' people now?

Disqus’ De-Platforming of Frontpage

The Left's fascistic purges continue.

Frontpage Editors

The relentless de-platforming of conservatives in general and of the David Horowitz Freedom Center specifically, continues.

On March 3^rd the Editors at FrontPage received an email from Disqus, the networked community platform used by hundreds of thousands of sites all over the web.  The statement reads:

It has come to our attention that your site is included in the Hate Groups listed on the Southern Poverty Law Center Hate Map:

As fostering Hate is a violation of the Disqus Terms of Service and Basic Rules, we can no longer support your site on the Disqus network. Disqus will be removed from your site on March 17th, to allow time for transition and a comment export. If you will need a manual export, please let us know before the removal date.

That was it.  As of tomorrow, March 17^th, Disqus is de-platforming us.  They have refused to respond to inquiries seeking further explanation. Disqus has taken on faith the libelous accusations of the Southern Poverty Law Center, a widely-discredited, partisan group that frequently characterizes mainstream conservative organizations as “hate groups.”

As loyal and dedicated readers of FrontPageMag.com, you know how vital the comments section is to a website.  It engages the readers, provides a platform for lively debate and discussion, and allows for a community of like-minded readers to converse with each other.  Comments are critical to the lifeblood of a website that engages in opinion and discussion.

Rest assured, we will still have comments flowing tomorrow. We are switching to a new service and while the look and feel will be a little different, we ask for your patience in getting used to the new section.

Meanwhile, we must remain vigilant and continue to fight the egregious leftist cancel culture that has overtaken our country.  This is not our first battle in this war. In just the past couple of years, MasterCard temporality shut us down, one of our local banks closed our account due to our “controversial positions on issues,” and a brokerage firm closed our account for “unknown reasons.” Amazon will not allow the Freedom Center, a 501 c3 IRS designated nonprofit, to participate in their Amazon Smiles charity campaign because of the SPLC’s designation of the Center has a “hate group” and now Disqus, the largest networked community platform on the Internet, has canceled our service. 

These disruptions are costly and hinder us from what we should be doing—pursuing our mission in educating citizens of the dangers of the Left—but they also shine a light on just how dangerous the Left is and now how tenuous our liberties and freedom are. 

Thank you for your readership and support. We have just begun to fight.
