YouTube closed by channel because I killed a female NPC in #RDR2
They said It promoted violence.
You spend the entire games murdering men and no one cares, punch a woman and you get banned, are you out of your mind @YouTube @TeamYouTube @YTCreators @YongYea @JimSterling

The issue obviously isn't the content itself, but the way that you shared it to promote violence against feminists as funny. You're crying about being censored and politically oppressed when you made a video about how assaulting feminists is awesome. No sympathy for you.

It was more of crude humor. Not my cup of tea but whatever. Video game character doesn’t exist so why should I be bothered?

Because it can be reasonably construed as promoting violence against real feminists. Nobody was actually hurt in the game, but that's not the object of his ban. The object is that he shared a video of him killing a feminist character and thought it was so freakin' epic.

Imagine if he killed a black character and titled the video "Went Lynching on RDR 2". The reaction from men and women alike would be of horror. But if he promotes political violence against women, it's suddenly okay. That's the issue here.

Dude. When it comes to video games, anything goes. I don't care what ideals you hold in reality but in games, everything is fiction. If you get bothered by something that occurs in a world that's literal consisted of 0s and 1s, then you're priorities are out of line with reality.

We've all been through this before with Jack Thompson and just like him, this is nothing but a hack job.

This is not Jack Thompson trying to ban all violent video games. This is a company banning one video on YouTube because its creator specifically advocated for political violence under the guise of it being a joke. You're comparison is extremely lofty.
