First it was Youtube (and presumably Google) banning and closing down the very kooky David Icke..

And now, Facebook have take the same step. First, they were only removing content but he seems to have caused them too many problems and his deliberate misinformation has forced them to act against him.
Well, the nutjob only has twitter left - failing that Reddit or one of the 'chan' forums left.

videos of Mr Icke making "untrue and conspiracist claims about Covid-19" had been watched more than 30 million times online.As examples, it cited:
- a YouTube interview in which Mr Icke falsely claimed that a Jewish group was behind coronavirus
- an Instagram post in which he falsely claimed 5G mobile networks left people unable to absorb oxygen
- a YouTube video in which he falsely claimed it was not possible to catch a virus from shaking hands
- a Twitter post in which he falsely claimed Germany was moving to "legalise rape" for Muslim men
