Sign the petition: Tell Amazon to stop selling Alex Jones' InfoWars products

Demand Amazon remove the "InfoWars Store" and pull all of Alex Jones' products off of Amazon.

Amazon: Stop selling fake news conspiracy theorist Alex Jones' merchandise and dietary supplements.

Dear fellow MoveOn member,

Alex Jones is a far-right conspiracy theorist profiting off a huge fake news empire via his InfoWars website, talk shows, and consumer products, who personally "helped jumpstart" the January 6 insurrection.1

Which is why it's completely unacceptable that Amazon sells Jones' merchandise and dietary supplements, even going so far as to host his online storefront.2

Demand Amazon remove the "InfoWars Store" and pull all of Alex Jones' products off of Amazon.

Facebook, Apple, YouTube, Instagram, Pinterest, Twitter, Spotify, and PayPal have all banned Alex Jones for hate speech violations, according to NPR.3

Amazon forced Parler, a far-right social media platform, offline by suspending them from their AWS hosting platform after the January 6 insurrection, ultimately causing Parler to go offline for months. And yet, Amazon is fine collecting their 15% off of Jones' Super Male Vitality Natural Stamina Liquid Drops and other unregulated so-called nutritional supplements.4,5

It's time for Amazon to pull the InfoWars Store and stop profiting off of hate speech peddler Alex Jones.

Thanks!
