SEC Blesses MasterCard’s Idea Of Cutting Off Customers With Right-Wing Views

5ccb925edda4c8be188b465aThis is one way to stifle people you don’t like. 

This is going to backfire. The way to stop bad ideas is by bringing them to light, not by pushing them down. 

The New York-based firm is reportedly being forced by left-leaning liberal activists to set up an internal “human rights committee” that would monitor payments to “white supremacist groups and anti-Islam activists.”

“The problem is that everyone has their own views and, in a free society, the idea of a free society is that you are free to have your belief systems, as long as you’re not harming anyone else physically,” Swann told RT America. 

“But your belief system belongs to you and you have the right be wrong. White supremacists have the right to be wrong.”
