Michael Edison Hayden of Southern Poverty Law Center's Hatewatch joins DOOMED with Matt Binder to discuss Gab dot com, white supremacists' favorite social network. We discuss the tweets sent from Gab to Matt right before the show where they insist they are just a "free speech" social network, Michael's experiences using Gab, how he has been banned from the site, its CEO Andrew Torba, how companies like GoDaddy cut ties with the website, the type of people found on Gab such as Pittsburgh Synagogue Shooter Robert Bowers, the infighting on Gab, the companies keeping the site afloat such as Epik, a domain company run by CEO Robert Monster, and the crowdfunding company StartEngine, Matt explains the title of the episode (hint: it has to do with an infamous pro wrestling promo from HBK about the Hart Family), Gab members invade the DOOMED YouTube livestream and more! Plus for Patreon subscribers: we discuss the difference between the legitimate crticicisms of Kamala Harris' record and the wrongheaded nasty attacks on her, the progressive case for ECW, punk and pro wrestling, plus your questions and comments!
