YouTube closed by channel because I killed a female NPC in #RDR2
They said It promoted violence.

Be honest, it's not the fact you "punched a woman" you could upload plenty of gameplay with that.. It's the fact you give her a label "feminist" and then seek to do harm the person. Considering the circumstances of her alledged "feminism" it is promoting political violence.

Is a woman voting "annoying feminism"? Because that's such a stretch. You could've handled that video a number of ways but you went down the controversial route to appease a certain toxic audience. I certainly don't agree with them taking your channel,

But maybe you need to re evaluate what kind of message you are sending your fan base. Labelling equal voting rights as "annoying feminism" is a pretty dangerous standard to be setting. A lot of people (young/dumb) will take that at face value and eat it up.

its virtual people in a virtual world, it shouldnt get you banned lmfao. if the video had been him killing "an annoying racist" it would have done nothing. There is clearly a cue that gets targeted there.

Nevertheless, it sets a bad standard where the line between thought and words and actual violence been blurred. I am all for offensive humour, in fact I found the video vaguely amusing, but a bot can't tell the difference and neither, apparently, can news reporters.
