Good for YouTube. Hate speech is not protected speech. You can't go around threatening people. I suppose if you want complete lawlessness and chaos and hell on every inch of earth you can support such crap.

That's amazing.

The thing is, we have different definitions here. You may (unknowingly) support Corporate pollution that causes diseases for millions....who don't check the box "I want more pollution but my stuff has to cost 5% less"...........

Davy Crocketts all. But even TN told old Davy to take off...and so he did, to Kill Mexicans in Texas. Killed at the Alamo.

But, hey, he got you Texas so you can claim it's all optional....

Maza himself provided that evidence.


As for am I outraged, sure, I actually said both should be punished. I have never defended Maza for his actions, but you are defending crowder for his.

Even if you dont think Crowder should be banned or at least demonetized. You dont have to defend his action or pretend he was using ***** in a nice way.

The really sad part about this is that he has a video on his channel where he talks about his own personal evolution when it comes to LGBT people, and coming to the conclusion that it isnt a choice and that conservatives need to get over it.
I haven't defended Crowder, merely pointed out you were wrong when you made the claim about what YT have said and what their TOS means. It is a very common error and worth correcting.

As to alleged doxing, Maza has provided no evidence that Crowder doxed him.

And just like the SPLC, they've been plagued by greed and corruption. To talk in Star Wars metaphors, they succombed to the "dark side of the force".

It's already chaos and hell even with some laws thanks to some bureaucrats who 1) sleep on the job or 2) aren't competent or 3) easy to threaten and/or to bribe.

Just a few years back (and maybe even now) I saw (from the air) those vast fields of cane burning in FLORIDA....so it's not like Mexico is in the Stone Age there.

Yep, they are still doing it - and, of course, the Government there is close to 100% GOP

https://www.sierraclub.org/florida/s...-field-burning
That's why CA banned straws but hasn't put pressure on Mexico on environmental issues, because it's was easy peasy. And you can still buy R12 and harmful VOC chemicals there as well. Easy peasy. Lol.

What ruined social media are the following echo chambers which I call the sinister 6. On the right, alt right white nationalist and mgtow. On the left conscious woke pro blacks, radical feminist and the social justice activist/warrior. All of these groups made social media toxic and narratives very devisive which forced many to side with the left, and now some corporations that virtue signaled in the name of pro black, in the name of feminism and women's rights, in the name of social justice are also dumping radical left ideologues too. Problem with the left is that they wanted the right to be silenced without realizing that they will be silenced too.

YouTube should just go back to cat videos.

You don't have to "threaten people" to be demonotized or banned on YouTube. Just engaging in wrongthink is enough.

YouTube was created to allow individuals a platform to speak their own minds. It's the backbone of the channel.


My god there is enough division on in this country as it is. Now you are basically allowing advertisers carte blanch on what or what isn't shown on You Tube? America is trigger happy enough as it is and soon they'll be removing anything remotely edgy. Where do you draw the line? Should certain ultra radical groups like the Nazi's, skin heads, KKK be censored? Sure all day long. But it's only a matter of time before good content is erased because god knows it offends SOMEBODY.


This censorship crap is not a good idea because it will spin out of control....


If you are watching a vid and it offends you? Turn it off. It's really that easy.
Advertisers have no control over which channel they advertise on. YouTube ads show on all large-ish channels which have lead to funny moments of ads that are ideologically opposed to what the video promotes.

YouTube itself doesn't care to much about appeasing their advertisers at least money wise the impact isn't that big. Youtubers make a very high amount to often all their money for ads. They might do nothing related to extreme politics but if YouTube has people who actively support Nazism on their platform, advertisers don't want their ads potentially showing up in front of content like that and will pull their ads of the platform. YouTube care but like I said don't care so much but the nonpolitical YouTubers taking a 40% paycut because the advertisers are dipping out, do care.

Now YouTubers themselves haven't made to much of noise, because the ad-pocalypse wasn't just political videos and was a combination of several YouTube Scandals involving many of their biggest creators. But if YouTube doesn't act now they will only lead to much more division on the platform, when Stefan Molyneux or another political operator says something like "Jews Rule The World" and a Taco Bell ad pops up beforehand.
