This is literally several companies deciding that they won't do business with Alex Jones anymore. It's not an establishment conspiracy to silence someone speaking truth to power (the guy still has his own fuckin website, retail store, endorsements, and radio shows, so if it's a conspiracy it's a shitty conspiracy). The guy just had a pattern of acting in a way that those platforms felt brought damage to their image, so they dumped him.

That's it. No nefarious precedent, no great illuminati plan, just people deciding that they don't want to be associated with Alex Jones' particular brand of bullshit.
