Pretty sure Venmo is owned by Paypal.

Yep. And we will never know because their severance will include an NDA that both sides sign. I’ve seen it a few times when there needs to be a fall guy.

Wow. Paypal management must cry at night over the Constitution. They really seem to dislike the first and second amendments.

Can someone explain to me how paypal was going to do this? If I have a paypal account but put a post on Free Republic or DU that they don’t like they could freeze my account?

Somebody--some Woke fanatic--in HR or its slave, Legal.

In many cases, that is the door through which this Woke crap has entered the corporate world.

It's certainly not coming from someone who understands how the markets work and has responsibility for generating an operating profit.

Stockholders need to make sure officers are fired over this.

I think what most freepers miserably fail to recognize is that kind of far-left socialist/communist "wokeness" isn't just going on at PayPal specifically, it's going on at almost every company in the country, at practically every school, college, and university, in virtually every professional and college sports league, it's heavily embedded in government, throughout the business world, across city/state governments, just about everywhere.

The loud-mouthed far-left Democrats/RINOs are clearly winning. Meanwhile, meek Republicans remain quiet as mice. Sure, there is a tiny handful of Republicans speaking out against all that far-left destructive garbage but not enough. Oh, almost forgot, the Democrats/RINOs basically own the MSM too. How the heck the Republican Party let the Democrats/RINOs get away with their 2020 Election Steal, without so much as even one investigation, is beyond me. Meanwhile, the Democrats/RINOs are the ones heavily and intensely investigating President Trump and Republicans. Um, ok. Makes total sense ................... NOT.
