They *have* to act as a public square and give everyone equal treatment unless they want to be considered a publisher, in which they would have to be liable for all content uploaded, and since this is pushing the boundary so far @gaywonk may have just broke the whole platform

I mean, it kinda deserves to be shattered/amended if it's going to tolerate this clearly toxic behavior that accomplishes nothing at best and at worst encourages a near endless mob of harassment towards the identified target.

But the problem is tens of thousands of people make their livelihood off of YouTube, would you be willing to just kick them to the streets because some dude couldn't handle be criticized in a derogatory way?

You can criticize an argument without resorting to calling someone a lispy queer, gay sprite, etc. If it was up to me, I'd kick them all out if they really can't stop themselves from engaging in it. I just don't care, it's unacceptable behavior.

He could've behaved a lot better too, although banning him altright would be angering 3.8+ million people. They should've just demonetized the video for not following the creator guidelines and left it at that

As far as I'm aware, all that's being asked is that they remove the videos that violate YT's harassment policy, or demonetize them at the very least. Personally, I've concluded that Crowder is a repeat bad faith actor so deplatforming him seems like the best outcome for everyone

Carlos Maza has repeatedly demanded that Crowder be deplatformed even after Crowder's whole channel got demonetized, leaving him and the men and women plus person he's currently helping through cancer treatment on their own, off Youtube subscription based site

This is an extremely dangerous precedent to set. Am I allowed to be a massive toxic bullying shithead if I pledge some of my ad revenue to a medical charity or hire people to support my demeaning abusive behavior, churn out videos faster, etc?

As long as you don't incite violence towards others, go ahead. That's what comedy for the past 50 years has been about, pushing the boundaries of what is 'politically correct'

I'm sorry, but I don't think any boundaries are being pushed when you take *literally* every opportunity to call someone a queer, sprite, fag, etc. It is the laziest form of comedy, if you can even call it that.

It is the laziest form of comedy, because that's the type of comedian Steven Crowder is lol
