Oh. I get it. McCarthy and friends are snowflakes. They're very sensitive and easily upset ...

Apparently Fox agreed with the criticism and released a statement condemning Farrell's comment. They also apparently do not plan to book him for further appearances.

Never heard of this before, but apparently there is a "free speech" alternative to Facebook called Gab. Kind of nervous to create an account but want to take a peek inside. A lot of points could be made from this. When you attack free speech and drive people off, this is what you get.
Founder Andrew Torba has long said Gab is simply a "free speech" platform for anyone who wants to join, and has responded aggressively to characterizations otherwise. But the platform's history is tied to the white supremacists and other far-right figures who joined in its first months, and who have contributed to Gab's growth.
In the wake of the Pittsburgh shootings, Gab and Torba have girded themselves for war. On his Gab account, Torba criticized mainstream media stories about his site and promised users that it would survive the increased attention. After Gab was banned from PayPal and received notice from Joyent, its hosting provider, that it would pull their service, Torba wrote early Sunday that "GAB IS NOT GOING ANYWHERE I don't care what we have to do, I don't care what it takes. We will build everything from the ground up if we have to. "
As for those who aided the president in his propaganda campaign, who enabled him to prey on racist fears to fabricate a national emergency, those who said to themselves, “This is the play”? Every single one of them bears some responsibility for what followed. Their condemnations of antisemitism are meaningless. Their thoughts and prayers are worthless. Their condolences are irrelevant. They can never undo what they have done, and what they have done will never be forgotten.

Gab is Twitter for alt-rightists who got booted from Twitter for making death threats and such. They mostly complain about Twitter and share recipes for Hitler birthday cakes.

The Left loves to scream an accusation, and if they ever offer up a retraction it's in the form of a whisper. Everything the Right does is always, ALWAYS, because they're racists, or bigots, or Nazis, or misogynists.
Look at the way Ceeboo was treated. He doesn't participate here any more not because he's a crypto-Nazi. He just doesn't care for the negativity thrown his way. That's why guys like McCarthy delete their tweets. They don't need 5,000 posts by psychopaths on his feed calling him every name under the sun.
God. You're so blind to your own BS.

Wait a second. You mean to tell me all this noise about McCarthy deleting a tweet that included Steyer, and Steyer isn't even Jewish?!? He doesn't even claim to be Jewish? But his dad was an inactive? And therefore, antisemitism! ROFL. Oh my god you people are such duplicitous snakes. This idiot isn't even jewish and he's crying antisemitism!
As he approached 40, however, Steyer had what he has described as a revelation. He became more involved in the local Episcopalian church, the religion of his mother (his father was a non-practicing Jew), and sought celestial perspective from his myopic financial concerns.

Not exactly what I'm seeing.
I've been banned from Twitter for expressing my conservative views.
That's awful. What conservative views got you banned?
I was telling Jewish people that I look forward to seeing them burn in the ovens, then posting pictures of holocaust victims in their feeds.
Uh, how is that conservatism?
It's awful how my conservative views are being oppressed, isn't it?
But...
Somebody should do something about it.
Um...
Twitter should be regulated like a public utility. I talk about the final solution on the phone all the time with my friends and no one bans me from using the phone.
