Why was Tommy Robinsons account closed? If I don't get an acceptable answer I would like to close my account also.

I became familiar with Alex Jones and Infowars mainly via his YouTube videos on Journalist Tommy Robinson's arrest in UK.  He had a bombastic but credible report on apparent Free Speech violations.  Nevertheless, I read PayPal's TOS and still wonder what a payment processor is doing reviewing and judging the speech of its members on other platforms.  Unless PayPal accounts are being utilized for criminal activities, this is akin to busy-bodiness and political discrimination.  This case is similar in my mind to the American baker being prohibited from not baking a cake for a same-sex couple.  The courts did not allow the baker to refuse service because his religious beliefs contrasted with those of the customers.

Correct. 
When did we appoint Paypal as arbiter of free speech and truth? 
I'm closing my account.

Paypal's position on INFOWARS is WRONG, WRONG, WRONG!!!  The problems in this world come from too much tolerance, and not enough intolerance. Just like every other commenter on this thread, I too will be ending my long association with PayPal. I'll forever delete my account on October 1st if INFOWARS is not reinstated. This is a prime example of leftist big tech COLLUSION to deplatform a conservative voice - a voice that has more listeners than CNN, MSNBC, and other leftist media sources COMBINED!!! That in and of itself is proof there are more conservatives in America than there are liberal leftists. My personal opinion is the people in charge at PayPal are making a HUGE IDIOTIC business mistake. I'm going to enjoy watching PayPal's stock value go into the toilet.

Since there are a few products I buy that only accept Paypal, I will not be closing my account outright, but from this day forward if I can avoid using Paypal I will.  Payment channels are supposed to be neutral.  They are not supposed to have values.  Paypal is not protecting anything by kicking conservatives off their site.  I don't even like Alex Jones, but I will not participate in this liberal fascistic deplatforming.  Calling something hate speech is nothing more than you sad liberal left coast puppies crying that you don't like something.  Well, you have made it clear that you don't like me, and I don't like you.  Could some rich red-stater please create an alternative to this fake American payment business?
