Infowars Reporter Millie Weaver, Gets her rear handed to her after claiming Facebook isn't privately owned.

Now that Alex Jones and his Infowars accounts have been dropped by YouTube, Facebook and iTunes, his employees seem to be having a hard time facing the facts.

Case in point: Infowars reporter Millie Weaver took to Twitter on Tuesday to argue that Facebook’s dumping of Jones was a First Amendment violation (oh, and to call everyone who disagreed with her a “libtard”).

Dear Libtards who think Facebook is a privately owned business,

There's a thing called fact-checking.

Facebook is a public business that's publicly traded.

Using that argument to justify banning Alex Jones doesn't work pic.twitter.com/6laQBgn0qF

"Public" means shares of stock are available for anyone with the money to buy.

The people who buy the stock collectively own it.

Those owners are private individuals and businesses.

They collectively decide what Facebook does, through a board.

Not you, not the government.

Wow. I love when dumb people sneer stupid things and think they are being smart. A public company means it has shares traded on the public markets. It is still a privately-owned - by shareholders. You understand the difference between capitalism and socialism? Apparently not.
