mediamattersforamerica:The gunman in the Tree of Life synagogue shooting reportedly posted violently anti-Semitic messages on the social media site, Gab, a platform that is a “haven for white nationalists.” Tech platforms like Paypal and Stripe have dropped the site in the wake of the hateful attack, and Gab is currently offline. Gab founder Andrew Torba vowed to work “around the clock” to get the site back online, asked for prayers, and characterized Gab as the real victim saying it was “under attack.”Harassment and extremism have been part of Gab’s business plan since its founding. Why did it take a massacre for corporations to stop monetizing far-right hate online? -- source link
