I don't care about a company's politics.

But the fact PayPal openly stated they will TAKE YOUR MONEY over saying something they don't like is quite frankly very troubling. That's why I'm cancelling. I don't trust them to have access to my bank accounts.

Well I accidentally canceled PayPal last night then. Oops. Maybe I’ll get around to signing up again. I doubt it though.

So it sounds like they need to credit my account $2500 for all their misinformation

On another note, I found this to be remarkably objective journalamism from yahoo!news

quote:

It recently banned Gays Against Groomers, a group composed of LGBT-identifying people that claims to call attention to the sexualization and medicalization of children via gender ideology and the transgender movement. Minutes later, PayPal’s subsidiary Venmo reportedly barred the organization from access. Evolutionary biologist Colin Wright and journalist Ian Miles Cheong, who regularly expose the dangers of transgenderism for minors, have also been removed.


There's not even the gratuitous "alleged dangers" or "who falsely claim to be dangers of transgenderism...."

I'm sure a correction is coming with an editor's head rolling soon.

Transgenderism is a mental illness, not a sexual preference. Castrate groomers- not kiddos.

Yeah, I've seen legal docs that aren't ready for the big leagues yet. Generally they are redline copies.

Deleted mine this morning. Got a warning from them that it is permanent and I could not resign up later.

That's a shame.

Perfect example of liberal mindset-

Throw a big pile of shite up against the wal.. if it sticks great! If it doesn’t stick - apologize on the 18th page of a newspaper and throw another pile of shot up against the wall to see if that will stick. Rense and repeat

Because a fully formed and typed up legal document could definitely just be implemented by random coincidence. And as the article states, they just killed the accounts of a bunch of gay guys for calling out the tranny groomers.


Dunno if it was a mistake, but do you really think there is a singular draft? Could have been accidentally uploading a revision that wasn’t given approval.

It does show the color of their thoughts though.

wonder how many accounts were closed that caused their retraction

I would love to know the total, as well.
At least 6 folks in my circle posted their cancel screens on my FB thread. I wonder if they had over a million close?

Sorry it was just a typo, someone accidentally clicked the "you will be fined $2,500 for every instance of misinformation" button on thr keyboard when they were trying to hit the shift key.
