Netflix Takes Down Episode Of Hasan Minhaj's Show After Saudi Arabia Complains

In an episode of "Patriot Act with Hasan Minhaj," the host criticizes Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman and the Yemen war.

Here he is, a Muslim, criticising the same Saudis Criminal Trump cozies up with. Ironic, no?

Usual complaints of "free speech" around the webz. Of course private companies don't have to adhere to free speech laws on their private platforms. So I'm just calling them cowards.

Sargon of Akaad just had himself kicked off Patreon for comments he made away from Petreon.

It raises interesting questions. One is exaggerated this way -

Should the leader of the KKK be permitted to have electricity, running water, roads and public infrastructure?

Should those citizens with awful ideas be allowed to use money? Visa? Internet?

If they should not be allowed, who should make the choices?

The 'Walsh Question' 'What Is A Woman?' I'll put an answer here when someone posts one that is clear and comprehensible, by apostates to the Faith.

Update: I've been offered one!

The episode was taken down in Saudi Arabia, only. They have to follow local laws. What else are they supposed to do?

Every country will repress their favourite thing, then we will all have a nice, homogenized media which never offends anyone.

Wait til the social media justice warriors go after VISA! That should be interesting.
