With word of the new YouTube bots that will sniff out anything not liked by SJWs even if it doesn't violate YouTube's new "ad friendly" rules that will put the video into it's own little section where it will not only demonetize your video but prevent anyone from liking/disliking, commenting or subscribing to the users channel, it's just another attempt from the "your rights end where my feelings begin" crowd to try and turn the internet into their own personal safe space.

This is the cancerous mentality bred by Reddit and Tumblr, that anyone who goes against the grain or has an opinion that doesn't coincide with the hivemind must be silenced ,censored, and shamed. And look where it's led us, pretty soon the only thing you'll be able to see on YouTube are those stupid videos with the princesses and super heroes or finger family videos.


This is just where it starts and if what happened to Jordan Peterson is proof of anything, it's a sign of things to come and it will only get worse because of regressive lefties who can't handle reality and have to live in their safe spaces

Because those are the only ones you're looking for. The same thing is happening to folks on the left, you just aren't familiar with them

Probably because if your go to examples of media are Youtube and Tumblr the audience is going to be largely left leaning and that's the savvy target to appease for businsess.

Why do you think the NRA plays to gun nuts?

Isn't it common sense?

So he got demonetized, that's not what I'm talking about or even remotely comparable to Jordan Peterson who had his entire YouTube account and Gmail DELETED until he made enough noise to get his account back

Money for such a campaign is a massive barrier to entry. But I do think that is what will ultimately end up happening. Conservatives will have to create our own YouTube...with blackjack and hookers.

Supply and demand will ultimately win out. There is a demand for conservative creators, and there is a supply of them. If creators cannot create content that people want on YouTube then something else will emerge.

Sargon isn't public enemy #1 to social justice types like Jordan Peterson is, but give it some time I'm sure he'll get purged eventually

This applies to everyone and the only reason you might be noticing more rightwing youtubers getting hit is because

A. Like Antifar said you mainly watch people who fall on the right

B. Many controversial opinions also fall to the right

As for Jordan Peterson his accounts weren't deleted they were locked and he got them back so I'm not seeing what your point there is. His situation sounds more like a mistake than being purposely shut down

It'll be just like Voat. Right leaning posters can go ahead and create their own webspace where they can shitpost as much as they want about minorities, women, muslims, and homosexuals.

There are plenty of content creators that essentially do it for free. Conservative content is demonetized by youtube. Content creators rely on donations and Patreon.

The CEO of Patreon said that it is ridiculous that there are content creators with over a million followers that make only a few hundred dollars a month.

And yet they continue to make content, even though Youtube has specifically targeted them financially.

Now YouTube is taking it a step further and is trying to segregate the videos altogether "even though the videos do not violate YouTube's policy."

It's a private company they can do what they want, sure. Doesn't mean it's immune from criticism for blatantly pushing a political agenda.

I haven't looked at the second story yet. But I am familiar with the first link. The CEO of Patreon stated that IGD were releasing videos of plans to pour concrete on railroad tracks. This behavior could lead to the loss of life and was a direct violation of Patreon's policy.

*EDIT I've referenced the CEO of Patreon twice. Here is where I'm getting my information:

It's my favorite thing about Tucker Carlson. He takes the most extreme left wing radicals and speaks to them about their issues. He takes them seriously when everyone else just laughs at them for being outrageous. If the guest just rants and provides no logical reasoning or critical thinking for their stance, then he'll laugh at them too. However, he at least gives them the chance to tell their side of the story.
