YouTube banned a vegan dude who rescued pigeons and produced carefully worded content specifically designed not to violate their TOS. No reason given.
Ludicrous and proof of flagrant partisan censorship of conservatives.
RT if you think @TeamYouTube should restore his account.

Why can't YouTube have whatever rules they want? They're a private company... can't see "censorship" on that

My understanding is that they shouldn’t enjoy the legal benefits of being a neutral platform while enjoying the freedom to be a publisher with editorial control. Pick one, operate as one.

Interesting, didn't know that. But don't you think the government is the wrong one since it's giving some benefits to the "wrong person"?

The thing is, YouTube benefits greatly from its legal status, think about what happens if someone uploaded child porn onto YouTube, then think about what would happen if YouTube was legally considered a publisher and then someone did that.

While the blame can go onto the government for giving these protections to the wrong people, YouTube wasn’t always the wrong person, YouTube for a while acted like a true platform, it’s only now that they are shifting away from that

And because of that the governments of the world need to give YouTube and all social media platforms a choice, become publishers legally and ban whoever you want, or stay platforms, and don’t ban whoever you want and enjoy the legal protections from being a platform
